L Lisa Batts

I just finished an exhausting 3-year modification lawsuit, and Lisa was amazing!!!! My ex and his family have money, while I do not have money. My ex is always suing me, so the cost of never-ending court fees was scary to me. I felt like my ex and his family were just trying to financially bully m...e and wear me down. They knew they could out-spend me, and they did. I just think it didn’t look the way they thought it would look. Not only did they have to pay a fortune for their case ($80-$100K), they had to pay for most of mine. My ex was trying to use every trick in the book, and Lisa was prepared for him and his attorney every time. She kept her argument legal and professional and kept the emotion out of it. As a result, Lisa was able to poke holes in just about everything he tried to get me on. While his attorney just slung a bunch of mud on the wall, she was able to use legal precedents to establish the validity of our position. I walked away from the final hearing with my dignity and control of my life again. There were no modifications to the final decree, except an increase in child support. I no longer live in fear of my ex and his family and the never-ending lawsuits that I could be facing for the next 8 years, when my daughter turns 18. When you need someone to help you walk through the messy world of family law, look no further than Lisa Batts. Her fees are beyond reasonable, she truly cares about your case, and has sound legal advice. This is in response to the person who mentioned Lisa’s license being suspended in 2013. I was with Lisa during the time her license was suspended in 2013, and she referred me to a very capable attorney. Her suspension had nothing to do with anything unethical that had happened. It was due to a technicality in the way the Florida Bar requires you to run your office, from a business standpoint. She had an office manager that was handling office management and there were a few things that got missed when this person was out of the office for being sick.

Three and a half months into my divorce, it was time for new representation. My wife had taken my son and left, keeping him away from me, out of school and providing me no information or communication. I called the Stuart Law Group after being referred by a friend and was able to sit for a consulta...tion with Lisa that same afternoon. From the moment I walked into the office, I felt comfortable. I was treated with respect by all the staff and Lisa herself took the time to get to know me and listen to my concerns. The very next day, motions were filed with the court and shortly thereafter I was spending time with my son again. Lisa and her staff have since continued to be more than well prepared, have kept me up to date with every single aspect of my case, and if not available at the time I call, promptly return my calls and provide me actual answers to my questions. We've just finished with the Temporary Relief hearing, so even though my divorce is far from over, I have the confidence of having a strong team representing me. Lisa has focused on the issues that matter, avoiding any mudslinging, and was successful in getting me equal time with my son, use of the marital home, no alimony, and very reasonable child support payments. I would recommend Lisa and the Stuart Law Group to anyone going through any sort of family law matter, even a high conflict divorce such as mine.

Lisa Batts has helped me with several child modifications. The first time she was able to get a lower amount for me and we didn’t have to go to court. The second time was special, she was able to get a downward modification. You see I’m the father and I was remarried. My son with my current wife has ...multiple organ diseases. It is very costly to support him with his medical visits and medication. With all the hard work she put in the case I was awarded a downward modification of over two thirds of what I would have had to pay Over the time she worked on our case which was two plus years, she got to know my son and what he was going through and the strain it put on the family financially as well as emotionally. In the end after the case was done, she waived her fee knowing all that our son and family had gone through. . I’m great full for all she has done for my family. I recommend Lisa to anyone who is having problems with their Ex….. She is tough and she gets results.
