Perfect fit

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.

High level of integrity/honest/and experienced

Divorce is awful, plain and simple. I spent hours looking for a lawyer that I thought could help me get everything I wanted after I found out my husband was unfaithful and extremely unstable. I called around to multiple firms and explained my case (leaving state with my child) and every law office re...commended Lisa Richardson. She stays extremely busy, which shows me two things: she comes highly demanded and she maintains a high record of integrity. I begged Sheri, her front office assistant, to get us in and the rest was history. I had many crazy situations where I needed their help and the office helped me at the drop of a hat, ALWAYS. Jennifer, Lisa's paralegal, really is a God send. Divorce sucks, and she was so kind and patient with every question I had. My ex was very unstable, and they assisted me in getting the protection My child and I needed from him, during this process. They let me cry and feel this situation with zero judgements. Lisa was very honest and forthright about what I wanted that was realistic vs. unrealistic. She will shoot you straight, and sometimes it was hard to hear. No one thinks clearly through divorce, that's why you have her to make quality choices for you. She was affordable and honest, I would recommend her to anyone. If you can't resolve your marriage, the ladies at Lisa's office will be a great support to you, and give you strength you never knew you had.

Fair, Patient, and Thorough

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.

Restoring my trust!

LAWYER... It's a scary word to most isn't it?! Well to me it has a completely different meaning now thanks to Lisa Richardson! Last year my ex served me for full custody of our 8 year old. Even though I have had primary custody this entire time, the thought of your child being taken away is something... no parent should ever have to think about or go through. From day one Lisa Richardson and her asst. Jennifer Bolton were very straight forward with me and explained in detail what we would be going through. They were both very prompt to answer any emails and or returned calls I may have had. Even though this case lasted longer than anticipated (due to the other party) I could not be more satisfied with the outcome of it all. I remained the primary parent and the other party now has less than what they had prior to serving me. I would recommend Lisa Richardson and staff to anyone that is seeking a family lawyer. Thank you Lisa, Jennifer and Sherri for restoring my trust, faith and hope in others. All of you are such heartwarming people and I couldn't have asked for a better team to have gone through this process with.

A Fantastic Team to work with...

I had never worked with an attorney before so when I decided to file for divorce, I had no idea where to start. Lisa & Sherri were amazing to work with. They were great about explaining how everything would work each step of the way. Coming out of a bad marriage with a controlling ex husband, I feel ...that Lisa's input & assistance made me stronger. Her team took what was a very unpleasant process and made it feel like I had a trusted advisor with me each step of the way. I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone in need of a Family Law Attorney.
