Divorce - not super strong advocate

Barbara is knowledgeable and professional but I was beat at the pre-trial by opposing attorney and it kind of caught her off guard. The explanation of why I lost the pre-trial was not satisfactory and forced a divorce settlement that I found wanting. Sometimes competent lawyers make an error or two... and I think unfortunately this was one of those times.

Great Attorney

Barbara was a very good advocate for me. She always answered my questions by returning calls promptly. She is very knowledgeable and I highly recommend her.

Great Divorce Lawyer

I had two colleagues that recommended Attorney Lusky to be my lawyer during my divorce from my wife. She was great. Attorney Lusky guided me through the legal aspects of everything, my rights as a parent, and was responsive to my questions. She also was cognizance of my budget due to the problems in ...the family. Attorney Lusky is very professional and to the point, which is very helpful. I feel this is good for the person going through an emotional time. It also saves you money on long phone calls. She was VERY upfront and honest. I would definitely recommend her to another person going through a divorce.

Review

While the system for divorce is someones worst nightmare, Barbara was responsive and knowledgeable to all that transpired. I would recommend her to others but would also recommend arbitration to any who ask.

wonderful representation

Barbara was a very fine advocate for me in my divorce case. She always kept me informed about my case. She was very knowledgeable about the law, and explained to me what I could expect from the process. She billed me in a fair and reasonable way. I would certainly recommend Barbara to others cont...emplating divorce.

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.
