Outstanding Legal Guidance from Start to Finish

I can’t thank Lisa enough for the outstanding support and guidance she provided throughout my divorce. From the very beginning, she was incredibly professional, clear, and responsive. She helped me navigate a complex and emotionally charged process with ease, offering practical advice while always ke...eping my best interests at heart. What I appreciated most was her attention to detail, her willingness to listen to my concerns, and her focus on keeping costs manageable. Lisa was always mindful of my budget and worked efficiently to avoid unnecessary expenses, which I really appreciated during such a stressful time. Even when challenges came up, Lisa remained calm and composed, offering solutions that helped me move forward with clarity. I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone in need of reliable, empathetic, and expert legal representation. Her professionalism, dedication, and cost-conscious approach are truly unmatched

Outstanding Lawyer!!

After struggling through an attempt at mediation and then selecting my first lawyer out of frustration and in haste, I finally ended up with Lisa 18 months after the divorce process was started. It literally only took a few minutes during that initial conversation to know that Lisa McNorton was the l...awyer for me. From that point forward, Lisa worked tirelessly on my case, taking the time to explain each step of the process to me to ensure that I knew what to expect with each step and that I was comfortable with the path forward to resolving my divorce. Lisa was always available, even now, when I had questions or needed to talk and was quick to counsel me when I was upset or frustrated. Her guidance and confidence helped ensure that I was focusing on resolving my case and not on the issues that really didn’t matter in the big scheme of things. In addition, Lisa was always conscience of the cost and was looking to deliver the best outcome for me while keeping the costs manageable. Much like Lisa, her entire Staff is top notch. A special thanks to Myra Bradway who spent countless hours answering my questions and responding to my emails to make sure I had the information I needed or requested. Bottom line, I am not sure what I would have done without Lisa and her amazing Staff. Thanks for all your support during what was by far the most stressful time of my life. You were always there when I needed a pick me up or guidance. You are all AWESOME and I’ll never forget what you did for me!! If you are in a similar situation and need representation, I recommend that you contact Lisa today, you will not regret it!!

Simply the BEST

Ms. Lisa McNorton represented me in a very contentious divorce proceeding. I truly believe I could not have made a better choice for my professional legal advocate. I tell everyone who will listen: “I love my attorney”. This lady is one smart and extremely capable Family Law Attorney. Lisa illustr...ated the utmost in professionalism and compassion. During the periods the opposition attorney acted belligerent and wholly unprofessional, Lisa never wavered from her practical professionalism. Lisa’s calm and logical approach to the management of my case gave me a solid advantage over my former wife’s revengeful antics and demands. Lisa kept me informed, centered, and grounded, while advocating for my rights in the most complete and strongest manner possible. She always responded to my questions, even in the evenings and on the weekends. During the entire process I never felt “alone”. I felt like Lisa was totally involved in my plight and was always right in the fray with me. At all times, Lisa made me feel like I was her most important client. I was most impressed with Lisa’s toughness at the time she deposed my former wife. From the very beginning, Lisa took control of the proceeding and psychologically disarmed my former wife. Because of Lisa’s impressive skills, the deposition provided us with all the information we had hoped to obtain. Following Lisa’s masterful deposition performance, our case was essentially won. I am certain the opposition left the deposition room wondering, “What happened in there…?” I have been practicing clinical anesthesiology for more than 31 years. In my field, we often hear stories describing the ethical deficits inherent to “all attorneys”. Lisa’s professional behavior and demeanor shatter such negative generalizations. If all attorneys upheld the same ethical standards under which Lisa skillfully practices her profession, there would be far fewer attorney stories and jokes out there to tell. This lady is a class act. Lisa got me through a very tough time. Let me say that again: Lisa got me through a very tough time. She supported me legally, psychologically, and emotionally. I shudder when I think how the outcome could have been different had I not had Lisa walking this path at my side. I cannot say enough good things about Lisa McNorton. And I could not be happier with my choice of attorneys.

Best Family Law Attorney Ever

I'm a pediatrician who had a high conflict divorce with another pediatrician, and a prolonged battle for years afterwards over sharing the children. In the course of this unfortunate conflict, I worked with a handful of lawyers, initially in New Mexico where I was divorced, and then later in Arizon...a where I shared custody of my children. I spend thousands of dollars and many hours with lawyers before I found Lisa, so I feel like I have the bad luck to have to have some real experience evaluating family law lawyers and can contrast and compare. Lisa is an outstanding lawyer. I appreciated her from the beginning, because as a pediatrician, I understood immediately that I was dealing with an ethical lawyer who cared about the children in my conflict. She did not try to escalate conflict, she repeatedly tried to guide me towards ways to protect my children and allow them access to both their parents, even when it was difficult for me to have the most basic civilized communication with my ex wife. While being an ethical human being is valuable in anyone, a lawyer needs to be an effective advocate, and Lisa is extraordinarily effective. She knows Tucson, she knows the judges, she knows the legal community, she knows the law, and she knows how to make things happen. Sometimes I didn't understand how effective her guidance was until after the fact. She recommended an outstanding divorce coach for me and my ex-wife, and this could have led to my ex-wife and I reaching compromises outside the court (and could have saved us a lot of money in legal fees). Unfortunately, my ex-wife was eventually unwilling to continue working with this divorce coach, and fired her. However, because I had been willing to compromise and come to the table, this highly regarded divorce coach became my star witness. Nobody wins in high conflict divorces. and while my case eventually settled on terms that I'm sure made me and my children much happier than it made my ex wife, I'm saddened by the entire useless experience. But Lisa gave me some faith in humanity by continuing to try to forge useful compromises that protect the children. I was also often surprised given how expensive lawyers are and how much time she devoted to my case, how little she actually charged compared to what some other opportunistic lawyers might have. My ex wife's lawyer, for example, seemed to go out of his way to create maximum billable hours, doing things like having both himself and a partner lawyer come to a simple hearing, so that both of them could bill for an hour meeting that ended up with an agreement that could have been written on a post-it note. I wish I could have felt some pleasure seeing my ex-wife's lawyers rip her off, but it just me sad and made me realize how lucky I was. Gallows humor is how I survive, and I've thought about writing a book called "the Pediatricians guide to how to royally screw up your children: a memoir." If I ever do, Lisa McNorton will inspire a chapter on the value to a brilliant, ethical effective advocate. Bring your case to Lisa, you'll be glad you did.
