Reviews
Attorney Faccadio is great. She is honest and up front and delivers great results. Having read some of the other reviews, I want to address some of those points. She is no more expensive than any other decent lawyer in Middletown. We needed a GAL in our case and that attorney charged the same amount per hour as Attorney Faccadio. The fact that she doesn’t use email? Super annoying at times. But it also means that when she’s with you and working on your case, she isn’t getting interrupted by 15 other clients. There’s something to be said for that. we would send faxes or leave messages for her to call us back, we made it work. Sometimes she will be rude and cut you off, but hey - maybe you deserve it. I know I probably did. You’re emotional and crazy. She wants to strip that all away, get the facts, and WIN. We got everything we were hoping for and more. It was worth every penny we spent.
Lisa was recommended to us after speaking with a friend of ours who is an attorney that doesn't practice family law. Given our faith in him, we decided to hire her for our case. Lisa and her staff were wonderful! They are all knowledgeable, kind, and always willing to answer any question no matter how small. Was it expensive? Of course but what legal proceeding isn't unless you are representing yourself? When it comes to my kids though, there is no price too high for peace of mind and that is exactly what we were able to achieve from the first meeting until our case was complete.
Attorney Faccadio came highly recommended by a trusted neighbor and friend during the painful process of filing for divorce. From the first visit of being scared to death to even start this unknown legal journey to it's conclusion a year later, Attorney Faccadio was exactly the person I needed to be by my side and on my side every step of the way. Her professionalism and experience were coupled with her genuine interest and care as she guided me letting me borrow her strength when I had none of my own. Never once did I ever doubt that everything she was doing was to make sure that the truth was known and justice was served to the full extent of her incredible capabilities. She helped me to see that she was an integral part of the process of acceptance and healing that has many facets outside of the legal realm. She would often ask how I was doing aside from the necessary information that needed to be exchanged during a meeting or a phone call. She kept me perfectly updated in all areas throughout the process with her commitment to communication in both large and small details. I can truly say that what started out to be a decision to hire the best divorce attorney in the greater Hartford area has turned into a most unexpected friendship of mutual admiration and respect. Attorney Faccadio will give you everything she has in her defense of you and sincerely cares that you are compensated to the fullest extent of the law and her abilities. Can you afford to hire Attorney Faccadio to represent you in your divorce proceedings? I sincerely believe that you can't afford not to! I will be ever grateful to her and for her.
Hindsight is 20/20. Looking back on my divorce, which was 10 years ago AND which Attorney Faccadio represented me during, I now understand that, as ironic as it sounds, the legal process of divorce is not about emotions. It is about separating yourself from your emotions and securing your future and your children's future. You're getting divorced. Stop trying to "play nice" and make one another happy. If you could do that you wouldn't be going through this process in the first place. Attorney Faccadio takes the emotion out of the divorce process and handles things like custody, visitation, child support, health insurance, the marital home, bank accounts, all those ugly things you never pictured on your wedding day. I'll never forget when I asked her how long until the process was over and she looked right at me and said, "You're not ready." Ready for what? "To slaughter him." She reminded me this was not about my broken heart- that was for me to talk to my therapist about- but about my financial future. Is she warm and fuzzy and will she coddle you through this? The woman is a divorce lawyer, not a BFF. Is she expensive? Hell yes. Is she worth it? Every single cent. Will you walk away with what you need to move forward. Yup- and then some.
I felt I was in the hands of the Best Divorce lawyer I could of had. She understands what you are going thru and doesn't waste your time or hers.. very professional and gets the job done with and Edge:)))
You get what you pay for. Attorney Faccadio represented me in my divorce and did a wonderful job. Did I pay a large amount of money? Yes. You get what you pay for. She never lied to me and if something didn't work out like she believed it would it was ok, because she never made a promise she could not keep. Anyone would claims to be able to promise the outcome of a court case should not be trusted. I've seen many times when a person thinks they deserved more than they received they get angry and blame everyone except the person who is responsible, themselves. I'm sure Faccadio did the best she could for a client who likely created a situation themselves that made any other outcome impossible. Bottom line: If you want to win in court and get a fair shake from the system, hire Faccadio. I'm still a clilent.
over 5 years ago she was recommended to me by some of the people that work in the court. I’m not gonna lie she is a shark, but she will draw things out, put in motions for contempt against the other side that never get into the courtroom, she will yell and interrupt you, get angry a lot, do things without your consent or knowledge and she charges way too much money for what she actually does. I went through about 4 1/2 years of court, motion after motion, I gave her notes and pictures of everything that she asked for and she never used any of it in court!! I was charged for all of these things that were never used and ended up spending Over $280k and i barely got to speak in court. There are some good things about her but you can get the same winning result with a way less expensive lawyer or you’re probably better off doing it yourself. if you do hire her, don’t let her push you around, stand up for yourself and YOU make the rules. she works for YOU! not the other way around. proceed with caution and educate yourself on what you ultimately want out of it. Good luck.
My divorce was difficult just like anyone else and I was determined to fight til the end. Attorney Faccadio lied to me to get me to agree to a condition in our agreement so we did not go to trial. I should have reported her but honestly, you just don't have the energy at the end. She also didn't handle a few post divorce matters regarding our 401k etc properly. I left and hired another attorney that I only wish I had from the beginning! She has no ethics and she is rude on top of it!
When I hired her it was just so my then wife couldn't. But she didnt do her job. She was rude and very expensive. Day of divorce she sent an inexperienced lawyer who knew nothing about my case. If you don't want your wife to hire her, then just go consult with her. But don't hire her.
Over $30,000 paid and it is not over. Lisa intimidates her clients, makes promises she can’t make good on and takes a terrible situation and makes it worse. When your own attorney makes you uncomfortable, when you feel you can’t be open and honest, you then know this is not the right attorney for me. If you are looking for an attorney who takes depositions of irrelevance, files motions of irrelevance she is exceptional. If you are in New Haven court DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT HIRE LISA FACCADIO. She was ill prepared to represent me in a hearing and was personally friends with the judge which delayed the process. However despite her friendship causing a pause in the process I will still sent a bill. And here’s the clincher. She billed me for the time it took to generate a bill. JUST DON’T DO IT
