About
Throughout my 28 year uninterrupted family law legal career, I have personally litigated, negotiated and settled a wide array of complex family law issues on behalf of my diverse clients. I have represented thousands of clients over a myriad of family law issues. I run a "boutique" law firm where each client receives individualized attention in the privacy of my spacious offices. I am currently a neutral full time Divorce Mediator and Family Law Mediator. In 2003, I became a Certified Family Law Specialist by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization, a distinction held by only a small number of lawyers in California. In 2004, I became certified as a Mediator by Pepperdine University School of Law Straus Institute for Dispute Resolution. In 2021 I obtain a Master of Laws (LLM) in Dispute Resolution from Peppedine University's Caruso School of Law. I am known for my calm attitude yet agressive approach to dissolving marriages and breaking through barriers of intense conflict. I have built my reputation in the family law community based upon integrity, skill and a lightning rod ability to disentangle disputes. I have solid experience and knowledge of the complexity of the family law system, earning praise from my clients, colleagues and family law judges. With a proven track record for success, I have the legal expertise, experience and compassion to give you the peace of mind you deserve during this difficult time.As a family law neutral, I am a firm believer in finding ways to resolve matters in a fair and ethical way. I understand the emotional and financial stresses of divorce and when families are torn apart. I work hard to mediate each case in a peaceful manner. I bring clarity to overwhelming and complicated issues through the mediation process. You can expect a personalized and focused mediation.In addition to my work as an attorney and a writer, I served at the Los Angeles Superior Court both as pro tem Judge from 2003 to 2006 and as a Settlement Officer from 2001 to 2006.All aspects of divorce, child custody and property division are extremely familiar to me. As a mediator, I am a neutral and attentive to all requests. My family law background and training helps me guide parties as a mediator in a dignified manner through the maze of issues without ever having to step into a courtroom. All mediations occur at our mediation center at our Canyon Hills' office. My career began in 1993 in Beverly Hills, California, where I practiced primarily for 21 years. In 2013, I moved to Riverside, California. I am happily married to Tim McVicker and live in Tenaja, near the San Mateo Canyon Wilderness in Murrieta, California. At McVicker's Family Law Mediation Center you can feel stress free as soon as you walk into my private office. My friendly staff is here to assist you with all of your family law needs. All work is handled efficiently with care and attention to detail. My office is conveniently located at the Sun Plaza Business Center in Menifee two minutes from the 215 freeway.

Liz is extremely Knowledgeable and Professional. She fights for her clients. You will not regret hiring Liz to represent You. She did an outstanding job for me. I do not hesitate referring Liz to anyone. She is very fair. Liz, Thanks for all You and Your Staff have done for me.
Ms. McVicker proved to be an excellent advocate to represent me through my divorce settlement. Her professionalism, fairness and tenacity with opposing counsel and with me, coupled with efficient staff members, resulted in a judgment that both myself and former spouse could agree on without court appearances. Her years of accumulated knowledge of family law was impressive to me and I am grateful to have been represented by an attorney of Ms. McVicker’s caliber and expertise. The strength she has is complimented by her compassion and care for her clients. Without any hesitation, I would highly recommend her!
I hired Elizabeth McVicker about a year ago. She has been very supportive and always kept me informed on the status of my case. It has been a pleasure working with her and her staff. I am totally satisfied with her services and the outcome of my case. I have and would recommend her to anyone that could use her services.
Very happy with the answer, was very helpful, she has a excellent communication , very nice , i do recommend her . Thanks
Mrs McVicker's and her staff were exceptional in every step of the divorce process. Mrs. McVicker's was prepared for every meeting and provided an honest assessment of the best course of action, even if it wasn't exactly what I wanted to hear. Her staff was always available and responded in a timely fashion for all inquiries. They aggressively kept my divorce headed towards conclusion vs. running up the clock and bill unnecessarily. Probably the biggest accolade to their performance: My Ex has passed on Mrs. McVicker's information to those seeking divorce assistance vs. suggesting her own Counsel.
Consulted with Liz from start to finish from legal separation to the end of divorce. Liz gave me honest advise and fiercely defended me. She quickly and skillfully negotiated an out of court settlement. She worked tirelessly to prepare a solid case where I felt totally confident to go to court. Left no stone unturned.
I am writing this review for Mrs. McVicker and her work on my case to become the Presumed Father of my Wife's 2 young children as well as doing a name change for my biological daughter. Mrs. McVicker did an excellent job on building our case and executed it perfectly. We avoided the trouble of Adoption because we knew that the biological father has no communication with my wife or the children. Not only did Mrs. McVicker finish the case out like a professional but she also cared about our situation and did everything she could to make our case affordable. I really appreciate all the work her and her office did!
After speaking with several attorneys who only seemed interested in making money for themselves, I finally found Liz who told me "Don't give me your money if you and your husband can work it out through litigation." Right then I knew that I had been blessed with not only the most honest and genuine attorney but also someone with high ethical standards. Liz worked professionally together with my forensic accountants in order to settle my case fairly. I started off with the best attorney I could have wished for, now I have a dear friend. When you're feeling sad and hurting you need someone like Liz who genuinely cares for you. Thank you so very much Liz, you are the very best.
Tamara (Liz) is the most caring and diligent attorney one could ever want. She has taken such a personal interest in my case, as well as her entire staff. I can walk into court confident knowing she is there beside me. She is very detail oriented and can make opposing counsel look like they shouldn't even have a license to practice law. I highly recommend her and her staff. I feel like I gained a family instead of feeling like I lost a husband. She is so dedicated and works more hours than you would think. I love you Liz, Rosa, Susan and Brandon
Elizabeth McVicker was recommended to me by a paralegal I was working with to help me through my divorce in 2014. From the moment I met Elizabeth her insight was practical and straightforward, which help turn my situation into a no nonsense approach to resolution. Her wonderful personality and confidence is refreshing. I must say it was gratifying working with her staff and having Elizabeth represent me. Bravo Elizabeth, thank you!
