Lisa Sanders Richardson

Lisa Richardson and her office represented me in a divorce case in Williamson County. The representation I received was outstanding. Every phase of the case was handled with superb professionalism. I received the needed legal advice to make important decisions. My case required mediation and I w...as guided through each step of the process and was represented with the highest level of legal counsel. I am deeply appreciative for having her team guide and direct me through this difficult transition. From the time I walk thru the door to the end of the case I received 5 star service and legal counsel. I give Lisa Richardson and her office the very highest recommendation to anyone needing first class legal representation.

First let me be clear: I wrote a heartfelt review for Lisa when I was sent the email request and then received a reminder two weeks later to write a review. After contacting AVVO only to find that my initial review was never received (even though I completed a captcha and clicked "submit") I am now ...doing my best to re-create that review...SO it should be clear that if I am taking the time and energy to compose this review again, it is because I firmly stand for that which I am putting forth with these words. Lisa Sanders Richardson KNOWS what she is doing, and has a well developed blend of practicing the law while still maintaining a personable understanding of her clients. My case was a modification for a custody agreement and her guidance during that turbulent time as well as her advice regarding what I could do to exercise my rights of visitation with my twins was spot on and wrought a favorable outcome once a new agreement was reached in mediation. All that was nice, but this was the part that was invaluable to me: I was the stay at home for my twins, and was re-entering the workforce while the situation arose that necessitated me to hire Lisa in order to avoid being alienated from my children. Lisa understood my situation and helped keep the costs down. Granted, this was not a pro-bono situation, and it required me to pay her and her team for their time and efforts, yet they knew my situation and helped me in terms of keeping billable hours within limits that I could afford. Look, I had researched her after being referred to her, and went in understanding that it is best to follow her advice. Once she heard what I was seeking, I followed her guidance in legal matters, and the opposition found it best to reach a new agreement through mediation. In the end, I got what I wanted; more time with my children without interference. In fact, I just had them for a full week during Spring break this year, and I know that was possible because of Lisa's talents and knowledge, for interpersonal awareness and the law, respectively. If you need legal counsel for family matters, I recommend hiring her. Without a doubt, I know my life is better for having done so.

When I was getting divorced, I heard a lot of horror stories about how much it was going to cost and how difficult it would be to amicably settle our assets and get me the time I deserved with my children because I am the father and work a lot out of town. Lisa is highly sought after yet she worked m...e in, quickly grasped the facts of the case, quickly drafted a framework for us, and efficiently supported my negotiations with my ex and the filing of the documents to the point where I actually got some of my retainer refunded. I also got the joint custody I desired. When I had some disagreements with my ex after the decree was signed Lisa and her staff responded quickly to my questions and helped me frame the situation correctly to avoid major conflict. Lisa is reasonable, professional, pragmatic, and knows her clients well and the details of their cases even months later.

Lisa was amazing through this entire process. I first consulted her a year before I filed just to understand what was needed. She gave me a lot of information about each step of a divorce. Lisa then advised me that I needed to be ready and sure as no divorce is easy. There is no judgement on her ...part just honest and sound advice. She asked great questions to understand what I wanted and her primary concern was the children and making sure they were taken care of by both of us. This is a hard process and she made it as easy as it can be. I never felt I was a bother. The entire staff was amazing. Every email and phone call was answered promptly and sometimes within minutes. The office is welcoming and comfortable. This billing was well documented and easy to track. Towards the end she kept on top of the other attorney and made sure this got closed out. I truly recommend Lisa for any family needs. She is worth the investment and you will feel secure in knowing your next steps.

Lisa made the divorce easy and I was always very comfortable knowing she was my team. I wanted it over and done with practically the day I filed, but her experience and patience helped ensure I would have no regrets from acting hastily, and nothing was missed in the process. We planned out budgets, l...ooked at circumstances as things changed, and I'm pleased to say the final results were best for me and my family.
