Failure to properly distribute pensions

Lisa Radcliffe represented my Mom in my parents divorce years ago. My Mom recently had a stroke and I reached out to Lisa to find out why she was not receiving my Dad's pension since he retired years ago. Lisa failed to respond to me or offer her assistance. Since I have Power of Attorney for my M...om and ended up having to higher another attorney because I later found out with the assistance of the new attorney that Lisa failed to do her job years ago. Lisa unequivocally failed to perform her duties per the terms of the retainer agreement my mom signed. Lisa had the duty to conduct discovery and properly assess the community estate in order to effectuate an equal division of my parents’ assets. This was a long term marriage wherein without doubt my parents had a community estate to divide. It is unimaginable how and why my Dad's pension was omitted in the final Judgment. My Mom's expectations were unmet by Lisa's failure to properly distribute my father's pension to my Mom's detriment. Save yourself time and money and find a better, smarter, compassionate and more competent attorney.

Strong, Compassionate, Efficient Representation

Lisa Radcliffe represented me in my divorce and child custody case. The situation was a difficult one with an angry, uncooperative, and aggressive spouse. This was a heart wrenching time for me and my children. From the moment that Lisa took the reins in the case, I felt protected and very well rep...resented. Lisa had great attention to detail, constantly kept me informed, and strongly supported and fought diligently for my family. I'd heard horror stories about divorces that went on forever with other attorneys where fees grew with little or no resolution ...this was NOT the case for me. Lisa delivered what she promised in a quick and efficient manner. I had no hidden costs or unnecessary fees. My retainer was reasonable and I felt she delivered every penny of it - and then some. One thing in particular I noticed in the process was Lisa's rapport with the Family Court staff and judges. They clearly respected her and she conducted herself in a professional and competent manner in all proceedings. As a woman going through this difficult time with an aggressive and often frightening spouse, I can't begin to express the level of control and comfort her representation provided me. I have referred many people to Lisa since my experience and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone searching for an attorney who's efficient, compassionate, reasonable, and particularly strong and formidable in both negotiation and the court room.

very straight foward

I used lISA FOR MY DIVORCE AND IT WAS PAIN FREE. SHE STAYED ON TOP OF THE OPPOSING COUNSEL UNTIL WE STRUCK A DEAL AND THE REST WAS JUST PAPERWORK. i WOULD RECCOMEND HER HIGHLY TO MY FRIENDS AND BUSINESS ALIKE.
