Honest, a diamond in the rough

Lisa West represents integrity, fairness, honesty, kindness. She seeks the best interest of the child. I was blessed to have her as my attorney after going through 4 other attorneys. She took a complicated situation and made my life and my families life healthy. She is and has been my attorney for th...e past 5 years. If I could give 100 stars I would!

highly recommend

I highly recommend Ms. West. She is honorable and wise. She is not intimidated by the corruption that is rampant in the Family Court system. Her courage to disrupt the status quo of corruption is admirable. She willingly takes on a fight she is empowered to fight because she is on the side of justice... and truth, concepts lost in family court, starting with the Judge. She is not motivated by political gain and she is clear to Whom she must give account. I am so glad I was referred to her. I had wasted over $60,000 paying a lawyer who were not at all concerned with the best interest of my child. I pray she continues to be empowered to fight for the best interest of our children.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND

I would HIGHLY recommend Lisa West. She is brilliant, kind, honest and extremely fair and ethical. I had 4 attorneys before her and was in jeopardy of losing my child. She won my case. She is motivated by truth, the law and what's in the best interest of the children.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I would HIGHLY recommend Lisa West. She has represented me for several and is always honest and fair. She knows the law and is highly ethical. I had several attorneys who were not ethical. I would not use another attorney.

Lisa West- THE BEST!

I had a very serious custody battle involving safety and international issues. I had gone thru 3 attorneys before I found Ms West. The other attorneys were either not competent, or unethical with their billing tactics. Ms West won my case. She worked harder than all my other attorneys combined. Her ...billing is very fair. Ms West is a mom and cares about children. Thanks to her, my child is now safe. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Ms West to anyone dealing with a custody matter especially if a child's safety is at risk
