Lisa B Heller

I have used Lisa Heller twice now. She and her paralegal C.J. are the best team. I first came to Lisa almost 6 years ago when after 24 years of marriage it was time for a divorce. I am an older person and didn't have a lot of social security. My husband at the time told me to get a divorce. I feel li...ke I was lead to Lisa. She and C.J. are very professional and on top of that, I felt like they have been with me every step of the way. I was able to have spousal support and everything else moneywise like the house, retirement, was split in half. It was very fair. Almost 6 years later with no notice I received a letter from an attorney stating he was ending the support. He had retired with a medical problem. Again Lisa took my case and got a portion of the spousal support back for me without having to go to trial. The support you get from Lisa and C.J. is amazing. I highly recommend this law firm. I would never go to anyone else.

I was mislead by Lisa Heller's office since the very first phone call. Her husband screened my call prior to my becoming Lisa's client. He informed me of her fees and told me that she's known for settling things very quickly and for less money than most attorneys. He told me that in most cases, the c...lient is refunded about 40% of their retainer. Lisa uses one assistant and her assistant is very unprofessional and unorganized. Not only did I recieve email responses saying things like "yup", but she also had my case mixed up with someone elses at one point. My paperwork had clerical errors and had to be redone twice. Each time I had to meet with Lisa or her secretary causing me to miss work. I also had to repeatedly email the office informing them of the errors which in turn I was charged for. Her assistant even tried to make it seem as though I was to blame for her errors. I started working with Lisa on my divorce in June and I was lead to believe would be settled and finalized by September. Now almost November my ex was finally served the documents. That same day I recieved an email stating that (even though nothing has happened yet) my retainer has been mostly exhausted and that my options are to either pay more money (I was given two days to pay an additional $1,500) or Lisa would be withdrawing from my case. I was informed that if my ex and I could work out all of our differences with no legal help, Lisa would finalize my paperwork. If that were an option, I would never have hired a lawyer to begin with. So now that I'm heading into mediation and a custody battle, I have no representation and I'm out $2,000! I would not recommend this law office to anyone!
