Lisa is a tough, say-it-like-it-is, knowledgeable person to have on your side. Lisa cuts to the chase and helps expedite the process. Lisa is assisted by a wonderful, sensitive, knowledgeable and hardworking paralegal, Anthony, who will always be there for you and get you what you need when you need it. Cut to chase and call Lisa to help you like she helped me.

If you are looking for a top-notch lawyer, a strong advocate, confident in the courtroom and a skillful negotiator then look no further. I highly recommend working with Lisa Ruggerie. I had a difficult divorce that involved child custody matters and was not aware of the legalities involved. Lisa guided me through the process, layed out my options, stood by me through out the process and was there when I reach out to her with a concern no matter what time of the day or night, weekday or weekend it was. I ultimately ended with a settlement that is favourable for me and my children. Lisa is upfront and direct, she looks after her client's best interest and works diligently to defend and protect them. Lisa's staff Catlin and Anthony are professional, attentive, supportive and always available over email and phone. I can't say enough about Lisa Ruggeiri's law office and will not hesitate to work with her again if I needed legal advice.

By the time I had my first interaction with Lisa I had already expended a fair amount of effort setting up consultations and having introductory discussions with several lawyers. Lisa distinguish herself immediately with her accessibility, willingness to dive in, direct communication approach, and focus on asking the most critical questions. I was clear, serious, and determined to move forward and Lisa was instantly ready to do the same. I remember that day when we began our client-attorney relationship and the relief that I felt with Lisa on my case. Lisa was always sober in her assessments, managed my expectations, and explained the complex considerations and risks. She demonstrated a flexibility and readiness to pivot swifty through all the dynamics of the divorce process. Lisa's style was no nonsense, authoritative, decisive, and fast paced. Lisa's responsiveness was amazing. I was also impressed by Lisa how conscientious was about the financial implications activity would have on my legal bill. On this day when my divorce is officially finalized I am very thankful for the legal services I received from Lisa Ruggieri.

Lisa Ruggieri assisted me with my divorce and estate planning and was exactly what I needed during a time of unexpected uncertainty. Lisa is an extremely reliable, knowledgeable, effective and trustworthy attorney who always responded to my questions/concerns in a timely manner. Lisa truly goes above and beyond for her clients and I highly recommend her without reservation!

I employed the services of the Law Offices of Lisa A. Ruggieri, P.C. for divorce representation. I highly recommend her office and found Lisa and her office to be extremely diligent, helpful and proactive. I received email updates of all developments and each important notification was followed up by a phone call to make sure I received the information and understood it. I also worked closely with her paralegal Anthony and he made it very easy to upload documentation electronically and to provide electronic signatures when permitted. We conducted the entire process during the pandemic but Lisa was always on top of things, much more than opposing counsel. She was firm and clear in her positions defending my interests and I feel that our judge deemed her arguments were stronger and more convincing than the opposition. Lisa was also insistent that we complete the process quickly in order to save not just time and aggravation but also legal expenses on my end. I greatly appreciated the level of professionalism and dedication to my case and would recommend her legal services to anyone.

Even during the pandemic, Attorney Ruggieri successfully negotiated a Stipulation for Judgment on all post-divorce issues without requiring a single Court appearance or hearing. My case was resolved amicably and I couldn't be happier with the final result. I strongly recommend Attorney Ruggieri to anyone currently going through or considering a divorce or separation. Thanks Lisa!

I recently retained Attorney Ruggieri after attempting Mediation during the pandemic. Despite the pandemic, however, Attorney Ruggieri was successful in finalizing my divorce in an uncontested manner and with one quick virtual Court hearing, my divorce was final. I can now enjoy a happy and stress free life. I highly recommend Attorney Ruggieri to anyone going through a divorce throughout the pandemic.

I highly recommend working with Lisa Ruggieri- she was thorough, accessible, and a fierce advocate for me and my children. Though the process is difficult, Lisa and Anthony made it seamless. Having Lisa in my corner was the best decision I could have made.

Attorney Ruggieri and her staff took great care with a sensitive legal issue that took over two years to resolve. She was direct in her approach and protected my interests well.

After over 30 years of marriage, I found myself in need of a divorce attorney. Lisa skillfully negotiated my case in spite of the ongoing pandemic. I am thankful that I am able to retire without the stress of alimony payments as Lisa successfully negotiated a past, present and future waiver of alimony. Lisa provided timely advice and guidance to me throughout the process, and achieved a swift and amicable resolution to my case. I am very pleased with her representation and highly recommend the Law Offices of Lisa A. Ruggieri, P.C. for anyone going through a divorce.
