This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Outstanding!

I hired Elisha to handle a custody matter. She was very helpful and fully explained what was happening at each stage of the proceedings. I recommend her to anyone in need of an attorney for a custody issue.

Outstanding Legal Service

Elisha was an excellent attorney to work with. She handled my matter professionally and went the extra mile to protect my rights. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of legal assistance. A divorce is not an easy thing to go through but having a great attorney sure took a lot off my mind.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
