Alisa Chunephisal

In a sea of lawyers and options who do you pick? Choose Alisa Chunephisal (Lawyer/Partner), Brenda Membreno (Paralegal) from Nova Legal Professionals. Nova Legal Professionals took up my case from another law firm, this being my third lawyer to properly represent my case and interests. Alisa did n...ot hesitate to take on the challenge to fix the strategy mid-way through and challenge the opposing counsel; she was a lifesaver. From our first consult she inspired hope in me and demonstrated a level of care, concern and personal insight that overwhelmed me; I was completely put at ease and confident I had the best attorney to address my needs. She has been highly responsive, always making me feel as the priority, listened intently and understood my current state. Her command of the law is impressive as she caters it to the individual situation and shows an incredible and diverse toolset to innovate a strategy and solution to resolve to your best outcome. In my case it was to mediate and broker a solution that I found highly acceptable in an unnecessarily contested proceeding. She was able to engage the difficult opposing counsel and calm the waters to arrive at a good result that brought me peace and freedom. I have recommended her services to others as I believe in her abilities, command of the law, ethics and competence. Additionally, having Alisa represent me not only secured me an advocate but the entire firm of Nova Professionals at my service. Corrie Sirkin (lawyer/Partner), Kendra Barr (Associate Attorney) and Brenda Membreno (Paralegal) provided unparalleled support and guidance. They were all personally engaged in my case and essentially provided me an entire legal team with how they interacted with each other, which gave me the strong senser I was not just a number to them but an important person; I mattered to them. All my legal matters were executed in a highly organized manner where nothing was misfiled, dropped, late or pressured me to act in haste. I cannot say the same from the previous firm. Corrie was exceptional and provided me a comprehensive advocacy that involved my military benefits and options the previous firm was unable to do. Corrie's continued review and support to Alisa was top-tier and provided me the assurance that I was superbly supported and had the right answer all the time. Kendra performed exceptionally as well and was the hands-on representative directly supporting Alisa for my case to ensure all my filings, documents and legal analysis was done early and always on track. Anything Kendra prepared and briefed was to Alisa who ran a smooth, organized operation; I was so impressed. Kendra, Brenda and Alisa literally walked me through every step of the process, along with Corrie's consult I was able to have the full benefit of an entire law firm, which was not the case with the other law firm. I knew they were with me, and I believed in them as they did in me. This firm, Alisa, Corrie, Kendra and Brenda are a top-tier legal team you want to represent you.

Alisa had my trust from day one before anything even started, and before I had even hired her. She was the only lawyer that had responded with any sort of empathy for my situation, and clearly understood the emotional burden of the whole case. While my case wasn't super complex or anything, it did en...d up dragging out due to the other party. Alisa was absolutely incredible throughout the whole ordeal and a pleasure to work with. Our legal system can definitely be complex, but she made my life and my efforts as easy as they could be. She was always super responsive, and answered all of my random one off questions, even late in the evening. She was always so professional and patient anytime her and I had to do anything, and always knew when to bring in some lightheartedness to keep me going. If there is ever any legal issue that comes my way that falls in her lane in the future, there isn't any other lawyer out there I'd trust with such a situation.

Alisa Chunephisal assisted me with a difficult divorce and was the first and only lawyer I considered to address the challenges in selling the marital home 3 years later. Her professionalism, integrity, and legal experience helped define each and every step in selling the home. From scoping the iss...ue; dealing with my ex; filing a Rule to Show Cause; and requesting the court assign a Special Commissioner... demonstrates her legal agility and command of her profession. She was personable, compassionate, and communicative throughout our whole engagement. No regrets and without hesitation, I recommended Ms. Chunephisal in dealing with the trials and tribulations in legalities of divorce.

If you're looking for an attorney who is competent and ready to go to battle on your behalf, then Alisa is your girl! Before I began the divorce process, I was terrified about the cost and to be clear divorce is not cheap at all. However Alisa was excellent about being practical in what I was askin...g for and not taking advantage of me being emotionally charged at various stages throughout the process, thus saving me a lot more trouble and money. She never talked me out of anything per se, but she really laid out the pros and cons of my options so I could think clearly about them. Either way, I always knew that there was no way she would allow my ex and his counsel to railroad me, she was always ready to fight on my behalf, but luckily we didn't have to do too much of that.

My wife and I cannot say enough good things about Alisa. We found ourselves in a difficult situation and needed to update our custody agreement. We had spoken to several lawyers before meeting with her, and we knew that we would hire her before our initial conversation was over. Throughout our enti...re case, Alisa made us feel like we were her priority and her passion and dedication were clear. She demonstrated a full complement of skills not just as a lawyer, but as a trusted confidant. We were highly impressed with her level of communication, level of experience, knowledge of the law, preparation and attention to the details. Her approach to our case was grounded and sound and she really listened to us and was honest about how to position us for the best possible outcome. She also demonstrated a high level of professionalism in our dealings with the opposing attorney especially with some of the suspect actions and antics that were taken in an attempt to steer the outcome in their favor. I will echo another reviewer's comments in saying that Alisa did not draw out our case for a more profitable gain. She was cognizant of the cost/risk/reward and was open and honest about it with us which we greatly appreciated. Moving forward should the need arise she's our attorney. Period. Thank You Alisa for everything you did for us and for everything you do for all of your clients - their reviews are spot on in quantifying the quality of your work as well as the extra above and beyond that you provide to all of us!
