L Lisa Batts

PSA: if you’re in Stuart and in need of an attorney do not, I repeat, do not use L. Lisa Batts from Stuart Law Group, P.A. in downtown Stuart, FL. Dealing with her was a very frustrating learning experience I do not wish on any other person. During the entire year I spoke with my attorney 3 whole tim...es, which includes the first phone call when I retained her. She never returned phone calls and I had to send most emails twice before I would get a response. However, the most frustrating was discovering her dishonesty over what the $1500 retainer fee included. I asked for two tasks to be done. She quoted a fee. She never broke that down into two fees. MY understanding was one retainer fee for both tasks. Both minor tasks. However, in the letter confirming the retainer (after I paid) she only mentioned the first task and not the second. Being the very trusting person I am I didn’t notice nor doubt that she would also complete the second task. I have learned a very valuable lesson as now that the first task is done she has asked for an addition $1,100 for the second. I am upset, discouraged, and annoyed. Additionally, today when I showed up for court she walked into the room, asked if I was me (we had never met in person) and then sat and never spoke to me again. Didn’t explain what would happen at the hearing. Nothing. She performed well in the hearing. When it was over she did not look my way once, shake my hand, or anything. I left without so much as a goodbye or nice doing business with you. Amazing. I am huge about giving kuddos when a job is well done. I don’t usually give bad reviews. If I’m unhappy I won’t say much and just go about my way. But this was too much to keep to myself. And please, share with others. I’ll be posting this review on other sites as well. This was unacceptable business practice after the amount of money I paid.

Lisa’s amazing reputation had me looking no further even before my 1st consult with her. My case needed an aggressive knowledgeable Attorney and she is well-known in the community to have those attributes. When I first met with her, she was very soft spoken and seemed to truly care about the well-bei...ng of my family. I’m sure she’s heard a story similar to mine hundreds of times from past clients but I appreciated her compassion about my particular situation and I never felt like just another case. Lisa is honest and was very realistic about my case. When my ex realized I had hired Lisa, he got very nervous, fired his current attorney and paid significantly more to another aggressive attorney to try to go up against her. Her fees were reasonable, she was very conservative with my money and she always kept me in the loop. I loved that she kept to the facts and didn’t let the pettiness of the opposing counsel get to her...or me. She was always cool, calm, collected and confident. I'm extremely happy with the outcome of my case! Her strategy was totally on point and I couldn't be happier! It was money well spent! Look no further...you won't be disappointed.

When Lisa represented me I never worried or had fear of the unknown. Lisa is TOTALLY prepared, detail oriented, and very sure of what she is taking on. Lisa is clearly very knowledgeable in her field and stays educated to the times. Funny story that my x-husband was impressed with her skills that he... even recommends her to this day to his friends and colleagues.We were divorced in 96. I have now retained Lisa in another dispute and know I am in good hands. THANKS Lisa for always being there and being number ONE....
