This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

I faced multiple false allegations, Asa helped clear my name and protected my rights as a father

I have had the honor of being represented by Asa LaMusga for over six years. Asa and his team have been instrumental in guiding me through the challenges of my parenting plan and ensuring that my rights as a father are protected. Throughout this time, I’ve faced numerous false allegations from my ...ex and her husband, including serious claims such as harassment, abuse, and even assault. Asa has been unwavering in his support, fighting every case with skill and dedication, and most importantly, clearing my name each time. There were also multiple restraining orders filed against me based on these false accusations. Asa successfully defended me in every single instance, proving the truth and ensuring justice was served. Family law matters are incredibly stressful, and I can honestly say there is no other attorney I would rather have by my side. Asa is not only highly knowledgeable and professional but also genuinely cares about the people he represents. I’ve noticed negative reviews left by my ex’s husband, which says more about their frustration with Asa’s effectiveness than anything else. The fact is, Asa is an outstanding attorney who knows how to fight for his clients and win. I am deeply grateful for Asa’s representation, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone who needs a strong, skilled, and trustworthy attorney.

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

All talk, no results. He lies, manipulates, and makes excuses. Wastes your time and energy, leaving nothing but stress.

This man is nothing but empty promises and endless excuses. He talks like he knows everything, but the truth is he never delivers on anything of value. Every word out of his mouth feels rehearsed, shallow, and meant to manipulate rather than to help. He thrives on wasting time, spinning stories, and ...creating confusion so that no one notices how little he actually does. It is astonishing how someone can wear the title of lawyer yet provide less competence and honesty than a person who has never set foot in a courtroom. There is no real guidance, no true advocacy, only a performance designed to look like work while producing nothing of substance. Anyone considering relying on him should save themselves the stress, because the only consistent thing he offers is disappointment.

Review

I hired Asa do deal with a child support adjustment. Asa took the time to represent me as his client and also work directly with my ex to come to an agreement. Asa was attentive and responsive to my needs. I enjoyed the communication and help received from Asa and his associates.

Excellent SS disability attorney

Asa took my daughters Social Security Disability case when her other attorney left the practice. We were very pleased with his thoughtfulness as well as his professionalism. He read all her past information and met with us the day of her hearing ready to answer any questions we had but more than that..., ready to present her case to the judge. I am happy to say she was awarded medical disability and I feel we couldn't have done it without his help.
