Divorce/Custody Best Attorney Hands Down

I hired Ms. Lord to deal with my divorce. After getting consultations from other attorneys she seemed like a perfect fit and I was right. She is fair, she is extremely knowledgeable in everything family law, and when I was either upset or didn’t know something she explained it to me in a way I would ...understand it. Hiring an attorney is always going to cost money but you will not regret the money spent on her services it was well worth every penny. Once you find her there is no need to look further.

Guardianship/Adoption

We hired Elizabeth in early 2019 and we successfully obtained legal guardianship over our grandchildren. Than 2 in a half years later she represented us for terminating Parental Rights of parents which was granted, and from there she helped us with finalizing our adoption. She is very thorough, know...s the law and will not say something can be done unless it can. She will respond to your e-mails and listen to your concerns.

Family law, The best !

ELISABETH LORD represented me in family law for my divorce and child custody.This is a hard time for everyone. Elisabeth Lord made it worried free for me. The days we went to court I almost knew I was going to win,(and we did) this is the type of lawyer you need on your side. Very perfessional and u...nderstands the law well. I would definitely hire her again hands down one of the top best lawyers out in Riverside.You won't be disappointed

Couldn't have done it without her!

When I came to Elisabeth I was on the verge of giving up after my previous attorney told me to "just settle" after almost a year and half of a support/custody modification. Not only did she completely turn around the legal strategy, she brought me hope again. We ended up at trial and Elisabeth was ...truly stellar. By the time she was done questioning my ex even the judge called him "not credible". Without Elisabeth I could not have gotten through this ordeal; neither legally or emotionally. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Elisabeth is an excellent attorney'

As we know divorces are never enjoyable and who really comes out totally satisfied? My divorce dragged on almost 7 years and I was completely insane and full of anxiety ! During this time I actually went through a few good attorneys and when the separation got serious I chose this firm. I was represe...nted by Elisabeth Lord whom I highly recommend. Honestly at first I was skeptical, she operates calm, subjective, and realistic from the start. At the time this was not what I wanted I wanted a tiger I wanted to make some noise I had unrealistic expectations and felt of course that I was on the losing end mostly because I felt my spouses attorney was dominant , loud, and more experienced. Feeling this way I drove everyone crazy, family, friends , the whole entire firm. (but Elisabeth's approach was sophisticated and effective ) I don't know how they tolerated me, but Elisabeth was an Angel, she guided me and helped me to understand the process, explained everything thoroughly so I I was able to make rational sensible decisions which in my frame of mind was not an easy task since I had a hard time keeping my mouth shut long enough to actually let her speak I just couldn't see past all of my anger and resentment. Looking back compared to allot of divorces mine wasn't even that difficult but I was, so I must praise the most wonderful paralegal in the world Jessica Diaz! Jessica literally had to deal with my insanity daily, if it wasn't for her patience I would not have made it through.
