Lisa Baker Canterberry

Ms. Canterberry is an amazing person. I am 23 years old and the father of a wonderful little boy who has been living with me since he was 14 days old. His mother, 20, had a lot of personal mental health issues, lived in another state, and by her own admission, did not want to be a mother. When our so...n was 5 months old, she decided that she wanted to be a mother and wanted her son back, even though she had only visited with him for a total of 4 hours in a 5 month period of time. I didn't know what to do, but Ms. Canterberry did. She walked me step by step through the whole process of engaging in a child custody case. She helped me make sense of all the legal jumbo. She answered my many questions and calmed my fears. I was so afraid the court would take my son away because I was male and unmarried, a fear his mother kept alive by telling me over and over again, that Texas was a mommy state and would rule in her favor. But Ms. Canterberry just dug in and prepared me for the fight. After all was said and done, I was granted legal and primary custody of my son. Ms. Canterberry helped make that happen and I am so grateful. She was understanding and supportive, even allowing a poor 23 year old to make payments on his bill, so that a happy little boy and his proud daddy could stay together.

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!

I was recommended to hire Lisa from a friend who had used her services a couple years ago. Going through a divorce, especially with children involved, is one of the hardest things anyone will ever go through and I do not wish it on my worst enemy. However, that being said, Lisa made the process as ...painless as possible. She listened to my wishes as her client and explained everything clearly and concisely ANYTIME I had questions. Her response time was surprisingly quick. Ensuring my child was well taken care of was not only my top priority, but Lisa made it her mission as well. In the end, if you have to get a divorce, I highly recommend Lisa. She is trustworthy, thorough, and timely. In Texas, the time from which you file to when you can receive a finalized divorce is 60 days. Mine was finalized on day 61 - the first possible day. And the proceeding only took 4 minutes. (We timed it.) Best decision I ever made was hiring Lisa during one of the hardest decisions I ever had to make.

Just want to express deepest level of respect and admiration I have for Lisa Canterberry. She is compassionate and truly professional. The charge is almost half cheaper comparing to other attorneys, but yet, Lisa is dedicated, detail, and keeps me well informed of all options, as well as the laws per...taining to granddaughter custody case. Her level of devotion is unmatched. Lisa is honest, hardworking, fair, attentive and her response times are spot on. Our family is truly blessed with Lisa, as our new personal friend, and Lisa, as our trustworthy attorney.

Lisa made me feel comfortable right away. She very patient when she explained the process I was about to enter and answered all my questions. She works hard for you at all times! I called her one night because my ex was giving me trouble with the custody arrangement and she emailed him that very minu...te and got it taken care of. No one will take care of you like her!
