Representation at its best

It took just shy of 7 months from start to finish and at times I thought there was no end in sight.I was truly petrified and overwhelmed by threats and accusations geared towards me from my former best friend and wife.There was alot of non compliance continually on every motion and Lisa adjusted ...her game plan to stop the madness and created immediate accountability.The end result was no property ,monies or anything for that matter,exchanged hands.The fee...extremely fair and justified.Highly recommend.

Lisa is amazing

Lisa has been so amazing. I was served with divorce papers 2 days before my court date, so she and I did not have much time to prep. But that didn't matter, she put everything into my case, and guided me through the extremely stressful process. She has been very honest with me through this, and made ...sure I understood everything. She is always quick to reply when I have any questions. During court, she worked quickly and confidently, which made me feel incredibly confident as well. So far my case has all gone in my favor, and I cannot thank her enough for taking on my case in such short notice, and giving my family her all. It means the absolute world!

Incredible

I used this service and Lisa called me within minutes and on the spot she knew what to do and how to go about doing things with my case. I hired her over the phone and she went right to work on my case and is meeting me at the courthouse 1st thing in the morning to file paperwork. Lifelong Client...

Don't Think Twice

It's wonderful to have a professional help you through troubling times. Lisa was responsive to all of the many questions that I had. She communicated to me what was happening with my case in a timely manner. What started out as an easy case was complicated by the other side which Lisa provided sugg...estions to move the case along to its' inevitable conclusion with both sides getting a just settlement. Thank you Lisa.

Incredible Attorney

Lisa, is an attorney with integrity and values and relates to the everyday problems. When I needed an attorney at my lowest point, she was there. She was honest straight forward, and no BS! Most of all even after the case was done, and as agonizing as unbearable it was at times, Lisa was there, not ...just as an attorney but a friend. Her morals show thru her work, and because of her inspiration I now I sit thru those same law classes she once did in hopes that I become an attorney at least half as amazing as she is.

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.
