great lawyer

I used liz back in 2008 for my divorce and always responded quickly to my questions. One of my friends recommended her to me. Made what should be a difficult time in ones life a little easier.

Outstanding Attorney

I hired Elizabeth earlier this year and I have no reservations about praising the quality of her work. She is highly professional in every sense of the word. She was completely dedicated to my case and she was able to actually obtain MORE than I had expected in my divorce settlement! I was impress...ed with the way she stood up for me in court and how she would never back down from a fight. I give her my highest rating and would recommend her to anyone.

Excellent attorney

After having 2 negative experiences with attorneys, a coworker of mine recommended Elizabeth. As soon as I met her,I knew I had found the "right" person to represent me during my divorce. She was flexible and found time to meet me with my working schedule. She was always professional, courteous, and ...efficient. She kept me informed and was always prompt in returning my phonecalls. Elizabeth treated me as though she really cared about me and my children. She truly had our best interests at heart and fought to represent our needs. She is hardworking and a genuine person. Her knowledge and experience puts her in the forefront of great attorneys. I have recommended her to others and will continue to recommend her. There are many attorneys out there who will give you the runaround and just rack up charges without any results. If you want a great attorney who will actually work for you, then Elizabeth Chacko is who you are looking for.

Trusthworthy and Responsive

When I was going through perhaps the toughest time of my life, Elizabeth was there for me. She always promptly responded to me including in the evenings and weekends when she was not in the office. She honestly told me what my options were even if it wasn't what I wanted to hear because she knew I ...needed to make an informed decision.

Caring and compassionate

Caring in meeting your family needs and compassionate and patient in helping your make decisions. The divorce was tough but Liz made it easier to get through and held my hand throughout it.

  • 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.
