Too busy

She was too busy to take my calls and didn't even recognize me after meeting her... 6 thousand dollars and a lack of representation

Helpful. Professional. Honest.

Amber has always been professional and honest in her representation of me. She takes time to answer my questions and explains the options available. I would highly recommend her.

Fierce and Competent

I was appointed Amber through the State Public Defenders office for a complicated felony case that lasted over a year. Together, we navigated through a case study of Murphy's Law. Everything that could have gone wrong, went wrong. 5 different ADAs, the PD's office not approving funding for needed e...xperts, and lots of delays. Thanks to Amber, I managed to stay sane and confident. Because of her fierce advocacy, even against the agency that was funding her, the DA's office dropped the case.

Professional and competent

I talked to many lawyers in Madison and Amber was the first to listen attentively and carefully and advise me in a straightforward manner. Thank you so much!

Excellent Attorney At Hand

she was very outgoing determined knowledgeable understanding caring took out time to listen and understand what you wanted instead of what the opposite side wanted to give you. She explained the circumstances and had more than one option to accept or not. Amber is definitely fair and is willing to fi...ght for your rights if you are being honest with her. If I needed another attorney for any situation I would definitely call Atty. Amber Lucsay again without any hesitations. Thanks Amber

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"In my last five months as a prosecutor, I had seven jury trials. I won six of them. The one I lost? Attorney Amber Lucsay. She's smart. She's incredibly nice, but more than willing to get fierce when her client needs her to. I endorse Attorney Lucsay wholeheartedly."

  • 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.
