Lisa Bell is the best attorney I've ever had. She gives me the feeling that she really cares about her clients. She really knows what she's doing and I feel very lucky to have found her. Mine has been a very long and difficult case and she has handled it beautifully.
"I endorse Lisa Bell, Esq. without hesitation. Lisa Bell is well known in the community not only for her exceptional experience in the area of family law but also for her kind heart. She can bring the sensitivity needed in many family law cases while at the same time zealously advocate for her client. Lisa not only shares her experience with her clients but also with local high school students when she prepares her school's team for the local annual mock trial tournament. I have known Lisa Bell since 2005 both professionally and personally and I would highly recommend her for family law related matters."
"I have known Lisa for many years. She is an ethical, well respected and compassionate attorney as well as a strong advocate for her clients."
"Lisa is a very caring person who is an enthusiastic advocate for her clients. I would and do recommend her for family law and guardianship issues."
