If you are faced with a crime you feel you did not commit and the bulldog DA wants to offer you crazy long probation on a plea deal. You need Lisa she will calm you down and do everything she can to win your case in trial. She did amazing research almost 1000 pages of discovery. She was very well prepared and works very well with jury selection and prosecution witnesses. She is amazing do not use anybody else she is the best. Her right hand person Linnea is also awesome she is there the whole time keeping you calm. She has an entire team that works together to help win your case. Don’t be afraid and just take the state trying to scare you fight for your rights with Lisa and Linnea.

Lisa helped me years, 17 or so, ago. She was compassionate and cared about what was happening to me. Her work allowed me to escape from a life destroying mistake - one that harmed no one. Her name came up today in discussion with my wife, a discussion I most likely would not be having without her help, and I decided to give a little advice for people in need of help. Preparation, tenacity, compassion. Its a repeat of other reviews and there is a reason for that.

Lisa is thorough; very thorough. Her preparation leads her adversaries to be wary, but her warm personality persuades even the most jaded judges and prosecutors to listen to her levelheaded arguments. She knows her stuff, and uses her knowledge of the law and her people skills to achieve the best possible results for her client. She helped me with a case that wasn't very serious, but she treated it like it was, and kept me informed on the progress along the way. I would recommend her without reservation.

I was charged with DV (kidnapping & assult) by my wife. Lisa asked me what happened and thought needed investigation. Later, found out I was married to an international fugitive and needed green card to get out of Korea. DV conviction would have gave my wife the greencard because I refuse to help due to her bad behavior. She is definitely a trial attorney who knows how to fight for you in the courtroom. I knew I was innocent with DV charge and I needed a great trial attorney and don't need a good negotiator for pre-bargain. If you are innocent, just go to a trial and don't take any pre-bargain from DA. Yes, I was scared and upset but I trusted Lisa's ability to defend me and believed in our democratic court system. For my case, it was dismissed by DA before the trial started because strong proof against my wife's lies. I learned from this experience that police can legally lie and they don't have to tell the truth inside the courtroom. Eventually truth will come out in the trial thus you should always go to a trial if you know you are innocent and someone lied against you (even it's police word against yours). Make sure you have a good trial attorney and I recommend Lisa anytime. She is one tough lady in the courtroom. Thank you Lisa.

Lisa helped me with false claims for DV charge. Found out why my wife was doing to me later. She is definitely a trial attorney. True attorney who can fight for you inside & outside the court room. If you are really innocent, do not take pre-bargain and just go to the trial because Lisa can help you for sure. My case was over before the trial started. Lisa has a good reputation as trial attorney in town thus DA will think twice before he goes to the trial. I learned that police can legally lie to you and they don't have to tell truth in the court. My prayers are always with you and your family will always be in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you very much Lisa. Kudos for her.

Never conferred with me during the whole trial. I have no idea what her defense strategy was but my wife and I carefully went through all of our police discovery laying out the accuser’s inconsistencies yet possibly only a tenth of it was brought up at trial. I went to prison for a long time. Scratching my head over the whole ugly business.
