Professional

Lisa was very thorough in her assessment and what she expected to happen. She went above and beyond my expectations on what she could accomplish and came through for me in the case. A definite game changer.

She Gets it Done!

Do NOT under estimate this sweet woman. As friendly and as sweet as she is, she will fight for what is right until it is won. My husband and I hired Ms. Ewing after several long years of back and forth with his ex-wife. While the outcome still took almost two years, at no fault of her own, when we... did finally make it to court Lisa was a force to be reckoned with. She knew what we wanted as parents, she knew what our child wanted and she made that her priority, never faltering. Ms. Ewing argued this case like it was her own family she was fighting for. She was an amazing advocate for my husband, she fought for him and his rights as a father every step of the way. Ms. Ewing handled mediation and several hearings for us. She was very careful never to underestimate the opposing attorney. She was prepared at every turn her attention to detail is amazing. She was always ready to fight ready to fight for what was right. In the end, the VERY expensive opposing attorney whose reputation proceeded them was forced to settle. My husband and I walked away satisfied and with exactly what we wanted. We can never thank her enough. My advice to anyone is listen to Ms. Ewing. She knows the courts and she knows what she is talking about, and to be as invested in your own case as she is. Ms. Ewing is a professional and empathetic. She will do all she can for you, she will be honest, and she will get the job done to 100% of her ability. Ms. Ewing will be our permanent attorney for all family law matters. I would recommend her to anyone needing family law assistance.

Trustworthy, Understanding, So Helpful!

I went to Lisa for a consultation about changing my shared custody parenting plan. She was well-versed in the way the different county's courts tend to "go," the ins and outs of each court's politics, and could tell me up front how strong of a case I had (not much, in my instance, which I suspected, ...but it was very worth the time, effort, and consultation fee to have her give me that feedback).

Highly recommend Lisa Ewing

I went for a complimentary consult to Lisa and immediately was put at ease with regards to my non-contested divorce inquiry. She listened to what I desired, made great suggestions and was extremely patient with my particular situation over the length of time it ended up taking to work out issues tha...t cropped up along the way. Her current paralegal is most excellent! I would recommend Lisa and her staff to anyone interested in hiring an Attorney.

Child Support Over-payment

Mrs. Ewing helped me with a case that involved child support over payment. Child support services garnished my wages for no reason 4+ years ago and trying to recoup my over payment. Very complicated case to say the least. Mrs. Ewing resolved my issues. Yes issues had to go to court two different time...s to recoup my money from the state. She handle my case with professionalism and determination. Just wish I knew of Lisa Ewing back 6 years ago when I stared my divorce. I can tell you this I would of not been in the mess I was in. Lisa Ewing resolved my issue(s) and I would recommend her to my friends and for that matter anyone that may ask me for an attorney reference. One big point I would like to make is. Always returned my phone calls and her paralegal was very helpful as well. If I ever need an attorney again. I know who I will hire without a doubt! Lisa Ewing
