Lela Michelle Schmidt

Lela was referred to me by a close friend. She is very professional but also down to earth and easy to talk to. She listens and, unlike some lawyers, she personally answers the phone and even calls you back asap if she is busy. Bottom line, she’s confident, aggressive, and persistent with knowledge ...in her field. Some of her cases are considered high profile and my situation was minor in comparison, however I was just as important to her and the outcome was proven success!

My ex-husband was so extremely cruel during the process of our divorce. It's hard enough going through a separation, moving, having to take care of small children and then you add all of the legal jargon that you're supposed to work through, it's extremely stressful & overwhelming . Working with Lela... she completely took care of all of the legal language that can be so confusing for someone who is not familiar with the law, I had to concern about nothing, she assured me of that repeatedly. Throughout the whole fight, when we got to court and after, she was a complete bulldog for my case! She is so extremely knowledgeable of the law, professional and took my case personally. She not only made me feel like everything was gonna be ok but also made me feel like my case was not just important to me but to her as well. By the end of the process, which took over a year, she was patient & calming every step of the way. I am so honored to have had her as my lawyer. Not only did the court ruling go in my favor but I received more than I negotiated . Thanks forever Lela!

Lela is hands down the BEST lawyer I’ve ever had. She not only treated me like a human being but also as a friend, not just another client. She made sure I was aware of all circumstances throughout my whole case and fought for me to the end to get custody of my daughter. She is brilliant, compose...d, and gets all the attention when she walks in that courtroom!!! CLASS ACT!!! I HIGHLY recommend hiring Lela, she is worth every penny and more!!!! Thank you Lela!!!

Lela is great! I felt like I was in a movie the way that when she walked in and everything just stopped; all eyes were on her, they all lit up (including the judges). The outcome was much better than expected. She is easy to talk to and is truly a good person. I highly recommend her. Thanks ag...ain Lela!
