Response to ex-spouse's request for modification of divorce decree related to child

Lisa Richardson greatly assisted me with her knowledge, logic, prompt response, and common sense approach in doing the right thing for all parties involved. My ex-spouse requested a modification of a 15-year old divorce decree to allow him to designate the primary residence for our child who was 18 g...iven the child had determined he wanted to live with his father. Mediation was requested by the opposing attorney based on the divorce decree. It was also requested that I pay all legal fees and expenses for my ex-spouse who was requesting the modification. Lisa helped to streamline the issues and immediately offered a different solution of drafting an order stating that the child was 18 and it was agreed that he could live with either parent and that no parent would be required to pay child support. Lisa's recommendation was accepted by the opposing attorney, my ex-spouse and myself. Lisa saved all parties involved a great deal of time and money by immediately determining what the real issue was addressing it with a more simplified and logical approach. She also informed the opposing attorney that I would not pay legal fees and expenses for my ex-spouse, nor would mediation have to occur. The issue was settled in less than a week. I will definitely continue to refer family and friends to Lisa in the future.

best attorney in Texas

I felt overwhelmed when my husband of 14 years filed for a divorce. As a stay-at-home mom, I felt alone and confused. Lisa Richardson, and every person in her office, stood beside me fearlessly. They were there for me and guided me with expert counsel. Every day I was able to make clear and strong de...cisions to over come every obstacle which stood in my way of success. This was the hardest year of my life, however, Lisa Richardson was a bright light who made it the most productive and successful year for me.

Excellent attorney

I had a very difficult issue of divorce that I was faced with. Lisa Richardson and her team especially Jennifer were amazing at listening to what I needed and were there to help put me at ease with terrific advice for my situation.

Posted by Richard | June 11, 2013 | Divorce & Separation

Divorce skillfully handled

Lisa handled my divorce in 2012 and she provided excellent counsel. Lisa's staff provided excellent support throughout the process. Lisa provided guidance as I began the process, was tough when she needed to be, and helped me a great deal in the mediation process. I have recommended Lisa to two of my... friends since I first met and utilized her services.

Mediation lawyer | Apr 08

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Lisa Richardson recently mediated one of my complicated family law cases. This case needed a strong, knowledgeable mediator. We had already been to another mediator (well known) without any movement toward settlement. Despite all indications that this case would not settle, Lisa Richardson settled the case. Her abilities as a mediator are unmatched in my opinion and I will continue to use her well into the future. I highly endorse this lawyer."

  • 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.
