Lisa Marie Gilmore

Going through a complicated divorce with a high conflict ex-husband and children involved was one of the hardest experiences of my life. Lisa was incredibly patient, kind, and thorough throughout the entire process. One of the most challenging decisions I faced was whether to hire a Guardian ad Lite...m (GAL). I was anxious and fearful of the process, but Lisa spent a great deal of time carefully explaining the benefits and ultimately convinced me it was the best path forward for my children. Looking back, I’m beyond grateful for her guidance and persistence. Lisa was extremely communicative, always making sure my questions were answered promptly. She was compassionate and steady, showing up for me when I was at my lowest. It was clear she wasn’t just my attorney, she truly cared about me and my children. Her paralegal, Lauren, was also incredible. She was detail-oriented, efficient, and so focused. I know she also handled so much behind the scenes that I probably never even realized, ensuring that everything went smoothly. To make things even more challenging, my ex’s attorney was also high conflict, but Lisa handled it masterfully. She has a way of de-escalating conflict while still standing firm and advocating for her clients. I cannot recommend Lisa (and Lauren) enough to anyone navigating divorce. If you need an attorney with heart, patience, and exceptional legal skill, Lisa is the one you want by your side, and she comes with an excellent team.

Imagine after many years of marriage your partner has you served for divorce at your office. She wants an ungodly amount of maintenance/money for 20 plus years and wants to keep you from your son (who is a Division 1 Top Recruit) unless you agree to pay more money. My ex-wife's attorney was vile, r...uthless and not a good person in my opinion. This was what I was facing and I was a total broken man. I was in denial and needed the assistance of a professional attorney to keep me from hurting myself. I was not thinking in my right mind and just wanted it to go away. I met Lisa Gilmore at the lowest point of my life. She listened, was compassionate, funny and incredibly professional. Lisa coached and guided me through every phase of the divorce. Her courtroom demeanor was unbeatable. The judge had total respect for her and I felt this helped my case immensely. My main focus was my son. How could a person who spent 80% of his son's time/life be asked to leave his home? Lisa again helped me process that this was not the end of the world... In fact, I believe I became a more loving father in the end. Let's face it... No one ever truly wins in a divorce but I can say without a doubt, I would have been in a horrible position if not for Lisa Gilmore and her staff. I thank God I met her and I thank Victoria (also in her office) for giving me the extra nudge to push me through the divorce. My relationship with my son is outstanding and I am even friendly with the ex-wife... but I still have my shirt, my dignity and feel very blessed Lisa Gilmore represented me. I am the typical guys' guy. I spent many years in the military and while I like to have fun, I tell it like it is... Trust Me!! Use Lisa Gilmore as your attorney. You will thank me later!! Thanks again Lisa Gilmore and Staff!! Oh, my son now plays football for a large PAC-12 University and is doing fantastic!!

Lisa was professional, sympathetic and organized. After recognizing the lack of cooperation from the opposing counsel , she was able to expedite the closure of a divorce prior to the court date, which saved everyone time, energy, and money. She expressed understanding about the pain a divorce can bri...ng... She is truly an attorney with a "heart" !

I retained Lisa to represent me in my divorce proceedings and I couldn't be more thrilled with her work, nor more grateful for the outcome. My ex is a very high conflict personality (HCP) and chose "bulldog"-type lawyers to represent her during the protracted proceedings. Lisa is EXCEPTIONAL at deali...ng with HCPs--both opposing party and opposing counsel. Lisa represented me in court as well as during mediation (and everything in between) and won the claims that I needed every time. Lisa is a very collaborative-type lawyer and handles collaborative matters as easily as she does the exact opposite. For more than two years, Lisa looked after my personal well-being, preemptively addressed harassment and protection issues, guided me through strategic and long-term planning, and fought and won on my behalf the freedom from abuse and financial stability I relish today. I remain continuously grateful for all the hard work and craziness that Lisa and her awesome legal team put in on this case and heartily recommend her to anyone seeking experienced, strong legal counsel and representation in family law matters.
