Worst lawyer ever

I hired Elizabeth for my child custody/support case and let’s just say she let me down completely. Staff is horrible at getting back to you about anything and I do mean anything. I had to call every time just to get any info in my case. Elizabeth talks to you pretty and makes you think you can win yo...ur case just so at the end she will say never mind this is impossible, your chances of getting anything you want are zero. (Even when at the beginning she was the one who suggested asking for the things I’m getting “denied”now). After thousands of dollars spend on her I got nothing back, no court order, nothing because although she gives you and estimate of how much she will charge you, at the end she will give you a different amount (double for me) saying she did all this extra stuff which honestly I doubt she ever did proven fact I never got nowhere in my case. I’m currently in the process of looking for a new attorney that can finish what she couldn’t after a year. I can’t stress this enough DO NOT hire her. She’s all about the money and nothing else. Go with someone who does care and will fight for you and your kids.

Efficient & Extremely Effective

I cannot speak highly enough of Liz Rivera and the services of her firm. We were always able to communicate either by phone, text and or email. Liz took the complicated personal matters of family law and broke them down and did what was necessary to get results. This is a firm that really does care... about you and your case. I highly recommend Liz to our family and friends in need of a good attorney.

I hired this "lawyer" and it was the worst mistake of my life. If your case is a simple, no frills kind of case, then maybe she may do a decent job but if it involves your kids, a divorce, child support or anything life changing, I would tell you to look elsewhere. This lawyer is about her money, ...point, blank, period. She and her staff can't be bothered. I hired her to represent me for my divorce/child support/ visiation and she failed me and my children miserably. The entire time she represented us, I felt rushed and I felt like she did not take my case seriously. The couple of times we went to court she was always running late and when she would finally show up, she spent half the time joking and laughing with the court bailiffs/officers. As far as my case and the children she did a half ass job. No idea half the time on what she was doing(if anything) towards the case. She failed on her promises to get me what was needed and frankly, she did nothing to really help in my favor. She talked a good game on all the good she was going to do but in the end , not even half was done and my situation got worse. She was useless. I can't even begin to express how much Elizabeth Rivera, failed me and my children.

I hired Elizabeth Rivera and for a noncontested divorce. She and her staff never called to inform me what the next steps were, I had to keep calling them for status and each time I was glad I called because they had new status on my case; she nor her office would inform me of anything and they are ...not professional. I WILL NEVER EVER EVER REFER THIS LAW OFFICE AGAIN. Believe me you will not be satisfied with their services!

Not the lawyer you pray for

Her staff/sister is a joke. Could NEVER be informed of ANYTHING i paid 1500 in FULL to take the mother of my kid to court for not complying with my already established visitation rights. AFTER 3 months i still wasnt informed of ANYTHING. I called once a week to see if she had been served with papers ...to go to court and to see when a court date would be set. After days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months still she couldnt get her "processor" to get her served.it seemed she brushed off my concerns didnt take my case-her work too seriously. After almost 4 1/2 months of nothing happening i decided to fire her and ask for my money back. Her staff/sister hung up on me before i was done speaking.. then i called Ms. Rivera personal cell non stop untill she answered and told her i was very unhappy with her seevice and lack of communication. I said her services were "shitty" and want a full refund of my money 1500. I recieved only 850 back she charged me several hundred for services that werent done "paperwork and such" then several more hundred for saying her services were "shitty". Dont believe me then hire her for yourself. Goodluck You'll need it!
