Amazing

Lisa was my lawyer over 20 years ago. Because of how elk she handled my case back then, I didn't think twice to hire her for my divorce. Lisa is very professional and knows her craft. She helped guide me through a very difficult time and was compassionate.

Truly Satisfied

Lisa worked hard on my divorce case. She was very professional through the process. I highly recommend her and will obtain her services in the future for family law needs.

The Best !!!!!

Before I met Lisa Canterberry, I had an attorney helping me with my divorce. After a year of nothing accomplished, and $6500 wasted, I went to Avvo and found Lisa Canterberry. She was very kind, helpful, efficient, and fairly priced. She finalized my divorce within two months. Also she gave me great ...advice. She's awesome!

Fabulous

She trounced the ex in my son's divorce and again in his child custody battle. Both times, we won overwhelmingly. I cannot say enough good things about her as a lawyer and as a human being. She is patient and understanding even when we weren't. I would highly recommend her.

A true friend in an unfriendly matter

Divorce is never a nice process to go through and it can be even more so when you try to go it alone. I hired Lisa to help me out with a very difficult divorce process that I had been going through alone for a few months to help fight for my rights with my child. She was able to ensure my joint custo...dy with my son and fought to have equal rights between both myself and my ex. She was super helpful and a constant professional throughout the entire process very fair in her billing. I do not know how I would have got through the process without her help and I owe her a debt of gratitude for ensuring that my son will be a big part of my life. I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone who has to go through the divorce process.

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!"

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
