Posted by anonymous | October 18, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

She will drain your wallet and give your ex what's left.

Lisa is absolutely terrible. She tried to get me aggravated so that I would fight with my ex in court. When I refused to do that she just allowed the case to ride out well over two years. She never pushed my ex to settle. She tried to get me to give things to my ex and she wasn't even entitled to or ...asking for. After she drained me of almost 10 grand, she tried to tell me I should give my ex $10,000 to settle it. We ended up taking our case to a masters hearing. My ex presented an agreeable settlement, thank god Lisa did have any imput into it. Athe the end of the hearing the judge asked if we should split the cost of the Masters hearing ($500) that I paid for. She says no that's okay. Ugh

Reviews Are Spot On

I wish I'd checked these reviews sooner. I had heard that Lisa did a good job in representing fathers especially and that she was a pro-dad attorney. If I knew now what I knew then, I'd never have hired her. Do your kids a favor and look elsewhere for an attorney.

These online reviews are flim-flam

Some of the reviews I read below must have been written from folks on the other side of the aisle. From day one, Lisa was very honest regarding where I stood with the custody of my child. She has saved me thousands of dollars by not blowing smoke up my ass. No pipedreams here, nothing but reality.... When you have a case, she will tell you. If you’re going to lose, she will tell you. Good luck to all the great fathers out there, you’re going to need it regardless of what attorney you hire.

GREAT, PROFESSIONAL attorney!!!!

Lisa has been my attorney for over 2 years and she has done a fabulous, professional job at handling the other party. She got the job done in just a couple months when my previous lawyer was taking years. I could t have asked for a better lawyer!

Hire Another Lawyer

Attorney Gentile is very knowledgeable about the field of law, but I would not recommend her to other individuals. My goal was to mediate and just get on with life after my divorce. It became apparent that her goal was to draw things out and to make as much money as possible. In some cases, she would... send opposing counsel up to 100 emails per day! This adds up quickly. I felt that my divorce could have been handled much better and the whole process could have gone easier than it did. My kids were the ones who really suffered.
