Best Experience

I was referred to Lisa Canterberry from a friend. I needed to make a modification to an existing child support arrearage and the non-custodial parent (my former husband) is an attorney. Without Lisa Canterberry's services and knowledge, I was feeling vulnerable. My former husband was trying to ge...t me to agree to deduct all interest over the past and give additional credit. As soon as Lisa was on my case, she took charge and didn't ignite any additional and/or unnecessary conflict between me and my former husband. She did what was right on my case and it was quick, simple, and very fair in fees. No surprise charges. She just got the job done and I am so very grateful. My former husband was equally impressed, as he was representing himself and felt she did a great job. (It's not often that he and I agree on things) I'm looking forward to working with her next month on my family's will.

You can't go wrong with Lisa C.

Lisa is honest and up front with what she can and can't do. She is caring and can relate to most situations, she handled it before with years of experience. She's a responsive available attorney. I've used Lisa on several unfortunate cases.

Highly recommended

We have had Lisa as our go too attorney for any legal matters for the last 10 years if not more. I would highly recommend her and have referred her to many friends and family.

Posted by Alexis | June 30, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Lisa is beyond knowledgeable and professional, and is extremely efficient.

I hired Lisa to correct many mistakes made by my previous attorney while finalizing my divorce. Her instant knowledge on how to correct the messy situation blew me away. Her ability to then execute it all in a very timely way, while considering every possible mishap did even more so. She was alway...s very prompt in returning correspondence and took the time needed to thoroughly explain every step to me. The icing on the cake was truly how genuinely caring she was. She was a pleasure to work with from start to finish.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I met Lisa because we worked together for a client on a family law/enforcement/jurisdictional issue. My client found her because he needed a lawyer in Texas and I practice in Hawaii. She is wonderful. She is smart, prompt, nice, and very reasonably priced. She won each of several hearings for our client. She also acted reasonably and professionally with opposing counsel, even when his conduct tested her. I would recommend her to anyone!"

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.
