Lisa Baker Canterberry

When it became necessary for me to hire an attorney, like most anyone I picked up the phone and started to call around. Most of the time, a secretary answered the phone and took a message. Others always went to voicemail. I remember the first time I called Lisa, she answered on the 1st call... in... her car... after hours... on her way to picking up a family member. I expected to be hurried off the phone and started to just leave my info as a courtesy to the timing of the call. She wouldn't have any of that and immediately I was telling her some of my story and my situation. At the end of the lengthy call, she was passionately and emotionally engaged to my child's situation. There was a fundamental core understanding from that 1st call, that my situation was truly important to her and whether I ever called back or retained her, that a high-caliber individual with decades of experience had just taken her personal time to care about my child and I. This sincerity that I felt from her was followed up and validated in our 1st meeting together. She spends her time in court and the rest of the time with her family. And so it was refreshing to find an attorney who didn't need an expensive fancy front office. Just her, and a close bunch of colleagues who she called on as needed. She prefers to handle the cases and even the details of the cases herself... and not have other people hand her a document to sign before going back to their golf game. I, as a single father with limited resources was so very intimidated about how I could afford the process of filing against my ex, who had nearly unlimited funds. But, Lisa talked to me about what I could do and over what timeline... and she worked out a plan for compensation that was fair and also met my ability. And so we began. My ex hired one of the fanciest, rootin-tootin celebrity lawyers with a big staff, a bigger head and the biggest wallet that you could imagine. Well guess what, my experienced, organized, strategic, prepared, scrappy, self-managed attorney stopped the Rolls Royce snob in its tracks in our 1st hearing. And that continued all the way to the finish line, when my child and I were given the full rights and togetherness that we both desired. Everything was worked out to my satisfaction and my case is now finished and over. If you need an attorney who is beyond capable, thinks both aggressively and strategically, cares about you personally, works creatively to customize your needs and means, is an absolute bulldog in the courtroom, won't nickel and dime you to death in your communications and preparations, takes your calls and emails seemingly 24/7 and responds sometimes within minutes, and puts your case 10,000% to importance to in her profession... please call Lisa and learn what I did... that there is a lawyer out there that cares. A lawyer that doesn't put $ first. A lawyer that is honest and sincere. A lawyer that is both passionate and compassionate. A lawyer that is hands on. A lawyer that is so far above and beyond that she transcends her profession and is that rare specimen that you would think you would never find. In an industry that is known for its cliche expectations, she is anything but. Call, meet with, and hire Lisa! And, Lisa, from the bottom of my heart, my child's heart and my family's heart, Thank You.

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 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!

Deciding to divorce is a difficult and emotional time. Finding the right attorney is critical to guiding you through the legal process and being caring at the same time. Lisa was the perfect attorney for me in both of these areas. She was a good listener and clearly understood my case. She was kn...owledgeable and communicated well with me each step of the process. She was effective with the results of the divorce and efficient with her time and mine. I highly recommend her.
