Lisa Baker Canterberry

I hired Lisa to help me with a high conflict divorce and custody conflict. To be honest, I saw her reviews and thought they were written by clients in exchange for an incentive or discount. After taking a leap of faith. Let's just say, that now I am review #76. My initial consultation with Lisa was... awesome, as a father in one of the more high conflict cases in Texas to date, Lisa impressed me most by being pro-active, listening to my concerns but most importantly setting clear expectations without over promising just to a retainer like most attorneys do. To be honest, and put things into perspective. Lisa is simply an amazing person that just happens to practice family law. Unlike most attorney's she will explain every detail of your case via email or over phone. Not sure if this is a "plus" for Lisa, but during my high conflict case, unpredictable situations arises and Lisa was available every time to make sure that I make the right decision and not compromise our position in front of the courts. Lisa is a strategy queen that pro-actively prepped my for my case before I could review opposing documents. This relieved me of so much stress as I have been dealing with a nasty divorce and then a custody modification less than 6 months later. I am thankful she didnt charge me double because she was not only my attorney, but also my counselor during this very bad situation. At times I believe she called me more than I had a chance to call her to ensure that I had a clear understanding of my case and any filings that were made. She always asked for my input and always explained the "why" as well as best case and worse case scenarios. Traditionally amazing and savvy. I am thankful that I decided to hire Lisa and trust her to have my best interest as my previous attorneys, wasted my time, $34,000 dollars and compromised my relationship with my daughter. If you are serious about improving your relationship with your kids I would highly recommend her. I will definitely keep her on a retainer for sure. She is worth every nickel.....

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.

I hired her for an AG Support and Custody case, and was looking to have matters put off until other issues could be sorted out. She arranged to have the matter put off until later with opposing counsel, which I was already happy with, but she saw the opportunity to have the case dismissed entirely an...d jumped on it. This outcome was desired by both myself and the petitioner in the case, so I am very pleased with this unexpected result. Should I ever need a family attorney again at any time in the future I will definitely hire her again. She is the polar opposite of the cold, clinical, and sometimes evil attorneys that most people are used to dealing with. When I had a momentary break down she hugged and comforted me. When she had opportunity to interact with my wife, she very very warm and polite, which kept things moving smoothly. She took great personal interest in my case.

Ms. Lisa represented my case for child custody with my very unstable/illogical/greedy ex. Her support and knowledge is irreplaceable. I don't have family around me to help n involve, but i got all knowledge and advice i need from her. She is fair to me and my child custody. I Highly recommend her to... any parent who interested to protect , nurture and raise their kids in good faith.
