About

She is committed to providing her clients with compassionate and zealous legal representation, and has a passion for helping clients navigate issues related to divorce, property division, support, custody and visitation matters, and post-divorce modification issues.As a parent herself, helping clients create smooth transitions and make empowered decisions for their families, is a role that she takes very seriously. She always seeks to find a resolution that has the least financial and emotional impact on her clients, and aims to give them a realistic and fair assessment of each case and the options available to move the case forward towards settlement.Alisa has been a practicing attorney since 2007. She started her legal career as a judicial law clerk to the Honorable Marcus D. Williams (Ret.) of the Fairfax County Circuit Court, 19th Judicial Circuit of Virginia.

She went on to become a government enforcement attorney for the United States Department of Transportation, and then an associate at Norton Rose Fulbright, LLP, one of the top five largest national law firms and top 20 highest grossing global law firms.

Alisa did an excellent job in managing the execution of my divorce. As this is a very difficult time, it is important to have a trusted advisor who can work to support your personal and financial goals with the most appropriate strategy. She is both highly professional and caring in her approach to your unique situation.
I was very lucky to get Alisa as my lawyer for my divorce case. It's hard to find a lawyer that you can trust and to look out for your best interests. She understood my position and limitations and worked really hard on my case. She is an effective communicator and a smart lawyer that stayed on top of everything. Divorce affects everyone differently and for me it was really difficult emotionally and mentally so I felt safe and protected with her. Having talked to quite a few other lawyers previously and working with another lawyer before her, I could tell that she actually cared about her clients. She's become more that just my lawyer and if I were to be in a situation where I need legal help in the future (hopefully that won't happen!) she would be the first person I'd turn to. I can't thank her enough.
I would like to commend Alisa for her high standard of care, knowledge, and intelligence. She has worked diligently in getting me through my divorce and property settlement. Alisa worked conscientiously and thoroughly over this past year to achieve this milestone for me and I have realized the benefits of her notable professionalism in the ability to work with people, her legal experience, management skills, and the success of her methods. Alisa possesses enormous integrity, compassion, honesty, and responsibility. Personally, I would trust Alisa with any issue, whether professional or personal. I learned quickly that Alisa is a throughful, highly regarded, and a very successful person who earned the admiration of people that were fortunate enough to work with her. I can confidently recommend Alisa as a solid and reliable Attorney, and an expert in her field; our work relationship was both positive and rewarding. There is no doubt that Alisa is now and will always be an invaluable member of any law firm; and a friendly and throughtful person to any human being.
I truly can not say enough about Ms. Chunephisal. She is extremely caring and honest. She goes above and beyond for her clients to ensure that you receive the very best legal advise and representation. If I could rate her higher than 5 stars I would because she absolutely deserves it. if you hire her, you will not be disappointed at all.
I have had an excruciating custody battle going on over several states and was at wit's end when I met Alisa. She is truly an angel. She is one of 5 attorneys I've hired for this process and she is by far the best. Alisa specifically and Livesay & Myers as a whole are extremely professional, prompt, and reliable - things you truly want and need when going through court, especially when your children are at stake. Alisa is a mother as well, which I believe gives her the extra empathy that a parent wants when they are being dragged through court processes. My son is the absolute most important person in the world to me and I am forever grateful that I had Alisa's support during this, my most traumatic time. Alisa worked tirelessly and went above and beyond for my case - reaching out to attorneys in other states both on my behalf and when she didn't need to. Frankly, I have been stressed, emotional, needy and, surely, difficult to deal with. Alisa handled all of it with poise and grace. She assuaged my concerns and made herself frequently available when I was worrying. She reached out to peers/other professionals/subject experts as needed to ensure she was tackling my issues in the best way. She checked in on my case after our work was over. She gave me the one thing I had truly lost: Hope. I can never thank you enough, Alisa. I will be forever grateful and I hope this review does even an ounce of justice for how incredible you are.
Alisa Chunephisal is a personable and professional attorney that helped guide me through a messy child support case (paternal). What's most impressive, is that Alisa did not draw out my case for a more profitable gain. She is very cognizant of the cost/risk/reward for her clients which I greatly appreciated, as I do not have a-lot of experience traversing the family law space. If you want a candid lawyer that will be honest and fair with you, then I HIGHLY recommend Ms. Chunephisal.
Great communication resolve my issue really fast thank you very much for your service I’m very happy
Divorce is an emotional, anxious process. When I talked to Alisa, a lot of my fear diminished. She gave me practical, straightforward information delivered with compassion. I knew I could trust her to do my thinking for me and guide me through uncharted territory.
Alisa was able to change my experience with attorneys. She was able to take over and finalize my divorce in less than 6 months. She was very informative and experienced. I would recommend her to my closest friends and family. Thanks again Alisa!
Outstanding family lawyer. I couldn’t have made a better choice. I was represented better than I could have ever imagined. She is an expert in her field, honest, efficient and reasonable. She is responsive to communication, very professional and worked very diligently to the end. I am so grateful. Highly recommend.
