Robert Tharp, Family Attorney on Feb 6, 2015
Relationship: Supervised lawyer
Prior to working at our office, i had a case against Lisa Marie. I found her to be well prepared and had that rare practical awareness of the case that help lead the parties to resolve their differences and settled that case amicably. Since joining our firm, i have gotten the pleasure to know her better and more fully evaluate her skills. She is a great attorney that truly understands the balance of zealous advocacy and practical solutions to settle a case. She always considers a client's ROI when making decisions. In addition, she is not afraid to take the appropriate cases to trial when it serves her client's best interest. It is a pleasure having her a member of our team.

I endorse this lawyer.I first met Lisa Marie as opposing counsel in a case. I now have the pleasure of working with her and having her metriculous lawyering skills working together. Lisa Marie is a hard working, dedicated attorney who takes strives to set things right and achive justice for her clients. I am proud to know her.
Patrick Meriwether, Family Attorney on Feb 6, 2015
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I endorse this lawyer. My first experience with Lisa Marie was as opposing counsel in a difficult case that did not settle until at trial (through no fault of hers). She was working with Todd Orston at the time. She was zealous in her representation of her client and had a firm command on the law. But, she was always open to discussing the case to work towards a compromise. Even though she was previously opposing counsel, we were excited when she joined our team a year later to work with us. Now having had a chance to work with her, I know that she approaches her cases from a practical as well as legal standpoint. Sometimes the Courtroom option is not the best, and she works with her clients to resolve their cases rather than just litigate them.
