Best Lawyer You Could Ever Hope For

Until I worked with Lisa, my opinion of family law attorneys was the typical "vampire, bloodsucker" variety of thoughts. My original divorce attorney was awful. He was expensive, uncaring, unresponsive and worst of all he lost my case. I hired Lisa when I was sued again by my ex and was VERY pleasant...ly surprised at the difference in the quality of her service! Lisa, and her team, was very quick to respond to every one of my calls and emails. She came across as genuine and interested in helping myself, and my autistic daughter, through my difficult case. She gave me the feeling that I had a friend in my corner who wanted justice to prevail for me and my daughter just as badly as I did. Her advice was paramount to my success in court. And, she really handled this worry wart and scared daddy well. Despite the odds, and people telling me I would never win this case in my county, she forged ahead and made a way where there wasn't a way. She brought victory to an awful mistreatment for me and my daughter that had been going on for years. My family has peace for the first time in such a long time due to her most remarkable efforts. She was worth every penny. I recommend her to everyone that tells me they have a family law issue. There is NO ONE in the greater Austin area that does Family Law better than Lisa Richardson. NO ONE.

Best decision I ever made!

My attorney Lisa Richardson and her team did an excellent job representing me from the time I hired them to the the time the judge ruled in my favor. My ex wife filed suit to lift our geographical restrictions we had agreed on concerning where our son would live when we got divorced. Lisa went above... and beyond to provide me with all the information I needed to to make sure that I would win my case. I had consistent and timely communication with both Lisa and her team throughout the entire process. I was always provided with the exact information I needed to make sure deadlines were met and the right decisions were being made. When we we finally got in front of the judge Lisa showed pure professionalism, knowledge and passion. She was more prepared than I could have ever imagined and was very organized and ready for whatever was brought our way. After two days of trial in Travis County not only did I win but I was also awarded over 50% of my attorney fees to be paid by my ex wife. I can not say enough about what a great job Lisa did for me and would 100% recommend her services to anyone who needs it. I am forever great full for all your hard work and dedication!

I hired Lisa Richardson on 03/01/2017 to handle my divorce case. At the beginning I had a consultation with her. After I told her about my case she gave me her opinion clearly with all the details I needed to know. Lisa also pointed to other legal aspects in my case that benefit me a lot. She... also introduced me to her team who were courteous and knowledgeable. Lisa and her team worked with me as if my case was their case. They always answered my questions, followed the case procedures in a timely manner promptly. The judgement came out exactly on time as Lisa told me. The Legal fees I paid were competitive and reasonable. I even got free consultations after the judgement, to help me stay protected. I am very pleased with the high quality of attorney Lisa Richardson and her team. I highly recommend her services, because LISA WILL GET THE JOB DONE.

Nothing Less Than Amazing

I was referred to Lisa Richardson by a friend - it was the best referral I've ever had! After doing my research and reading several positive reviews, I decided to set up an initial consultation with Lisa and her staff to discuss my case. I was immediately impressed with the professionalism of every...one in her office and the fact that they genuinely cared about my case and wanted to help. I walked into Lisa Richardson's office the day of my consultation stressed out, overwhelmed, and not knowing what to expect. I thought I was fighting an uphill battle. When I left the consultation, I walked out of Lisa Richardson's office, I felt like I was in good hands and I felt more reassured than ever about my case. I felt confident that I had a strong, no non-sense, well respected attorney to represent me. Soon after I hired Lisa Richardson, she got the ball rolling, and GOT THINGS DONE QUICKLY! Do not let Lisa Richardson's appearance fool you, she is without a doubt relentless against the opposing council and definitely goes the extra mile for her clients. She's the type of attorney you would rather have on your side than against you. I am 100% satisfied with my decision to hire Lisa Richardson as my attorney and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND you do the same. I hope to never go through a legal situation like this again, but if I do, I have Lisa Richardson on speed dial!

I am eternally grateful...

I never worked with an attorney before and it became nerve wrecking the moment i realized I needed one to represent me. All that went away the moment I met with Mrs. Richardson, I knew from the first moment that I needed to hire her, that turned into one of the best decisions I have ever made. I le...ft her office knowing that I had nothing to worry about. Throughout the process Lisa and her staff kept in constant communication with me. Never once did I not know what was going on with my case. If you need an attorney, I HIGHLY recommend Mrs. Lisa Richardson!

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."
