Great Attorney/Would Hire Again

I cannot say enough good things about Lisa Werner and her staff. They guided me through a long and painful divorce process with an abusive and bullying husband. Lisa fought hard to get me my results. Her office was with me every step of the way, especially Peggy, who always had time to listen to my c...oncerns and answer my questions. Lisa is a great attorney, and I would hire her again (hope I don't have to) and recommend her to anyone.

Highly Recommend

Lisa represented me in my divorce from my Husband earlier this year. She was kind, understanding, and always had time for me. My ex and his attorney didn't make things easy, but Lisa got me through and settled my case in mediation. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced att...orney you can also connect with on a personal level.
