Child support 50/50

My case has been probably one of the most difficult and outrageous child support cases on a 50/50 custody split. Lisa killed my ex with “kindness” and today this nightmare has finally ended. As my kids would say Lisa is a “baddie”. Thank you Lisa, I can breathe a sigh of relief and continue to mov...e forward with my life, raise my kids, and level up in every phase of my life. If anyone needs help with custody, child support or any other family court matters, she’s worth it. I have learned throughout this journey that you want that force in the court room, the system doesn’t play fair. She’s that force!!!!!

Best Lawyer in Rochester

Let me first say that when It comes to Lisa Siragusa she goes above and beyond. I first reached out to Lisa and got her voicemail, I left her a message explaining my custody situation. She called me at 9:30 pm that same night. She understood my situation and was very empathetic. She gave me tasks to ...complete and setup a meeting later in the week. Once she got all the details, she was able to outline areas of strengthens and weakness. She was able to provide guidance with addressing those weakness. She was able to successfully able to transfer the petition to the right county that treats fathers and mothers on the same playing field. Then she really got to work and was able to help me with the custody battle answering any questions or concerns or issues with my daughter’s mother during the process. She constantly had legal arguments to everything the opposing lawyer tried to pull. She also told me the truth about what I might not get but helped me achieve my overall goal. I can say thanks to Lisa I have joint and residential custody of my wonderful daughter. After coming home from a deployment, I recommend her to anyone because she has the same values of honesty, courage and commitment that we see in our armed forces.

Custody of Grandson

Lisa Siragusa and her staff were extremely friendly and made me feel at ease immediately. They kept me informed at every step of the custody process. Lisa is professional and down to earth. My case took a toll on me emotionally and I knew she was there for me during every stage in this process. Lisa ...took the time to know my case inside and out. By the time our trial came, she out preformed council for others involved in my case. I would highly recommend Lisa Siragusa.

Passionate, Professional, Dedicated and Outstanding

I Hired Lisa for a Child Custody Case and it was the BEST decision I had made for my family and children. Lisa is proactive, dedicated, compassionate and personally takes the time to understand all the details of the case. Her and her team are very comforting and knowledgeable. They keep you very in...formed of what is going on and ensured you understood all aspects which also helped relieve the stress of the whole situation. Lisa and her team were always available to answer questions and were straight to the point! Lisa is an Outstanding, Top-Notch Lawyer whom I highly recommend! Of Course I was very pleased with the case results and will always recommend Lisa and her Team to all my family and Friends.

Professional, Insightful, and Dedicated

Lisa has represented me for cases involving both a DWI and child custody. Throughout the process she has been an absolute god send; she is one of the most knowledgeable and practical attorneys that I have worked with and she is 100% invested in her clients. My cases have been working out for the bett...er; my family and I are grateful for not only her professional performance but also for her mentorship throughout the court and legal process. With Lisa’s hard work and insight I have been able to move forward with my life. In my circumstance, Lisa was able to negotiate far better than what I thought possible- she is no nonsense, very experienced, and wise.
