When I was ready to give up on a 3 year custody battle, I reached out to Speaker Law. After thoroughly discussing my case, they connected me to Lisa Schmidt. She was not only thorough, but passionate about my case. The team kept me updated through the daunting process of appeals. Finally, when the day arrived, I sat in the courtroom watching the cases before me. Lawyers fumbling through and (in my opinion) literally not doing their clients justice. Then, my case was called. Lisa Schmidt was decisive, poignant, and eloquent with the points she wanted to make. When asked questions, she was confident and it was evident she knew my case inside and out. Not only did I receive custody of my child, it was IMMEDIATE custody. Very rarely seen. She not only won our case, but possibly saved my child’s life. As anyone knows that has been in a custody case, you are often left with mixed emotions about lawyers. When I think of Speaker Law and Lisa Schmidt, there are only feelings of immense gratitude. Deciding to appeal is a difficult one. You feel beaten up and emotionally and financially drained. I would not (and have not) hesitate to recommend their services. They helped us get through the legal battle so we could focus on healing. Thank you, Speaker Law. Thank you.

Our law firm had the pleasure of working with the Speaker Law Firm on an application for leave to appeal involving several complex and cutting-edge legal issues. We hired Liisa and her team, specifically Elizabeth Parker, to consult with our law firm on our application and they proved to be invaluable on both the procedural and substantive processes required for this kind of appeal. The Speaker Law Firm worked well within the strict timelines and provided top-quality legal research and arguments to enhance our application. I recommend Speaker Law Firm, without hesitation, to any person or attorney pursuing an appeal in the State of Michigan.

Liisa Speaker and her team are phenomenal lawyers and professionals! They are brilliant, hard-working, innovative, and communicative. I highly recommend them!

Very professional and proactive firm well versed in the appellate arena. Cody, Jordan and Liisa keep me updated at every step of the process and delivered exceptional results. If you are in need of representation, the Speaker Law Firm should be your first choice.

Liisa Speaker and her team are experts in Family Law appeals. Unfortunately, sometimes trial courts get it wrong, but luckily for people who have had a trial and feel like the wrong decision was made, they can consult with Speaker Law. The team at Speaker Law reviews the case and gives great advice about the options surrounding filing an appeal. Make the call for peace of mind!

Jennifer's work on behalf of a mutual client of ours was terrific. Her research was in-depth, and her writing was direct, efficient and - most importantly - persuasive. Stellar work by a stellar attorney.

I have co-counseled litigation matters with Liz on several different matters over the years. Her legal analysis, work-product, and advocacy skills are excellent. I highly recommend her.

Simply the best adoption and family law appeals firm in Michigan! I refer all my appellate work to Liisa and the gang. They have a deep and extensive knowledge of adoption, children's, and family law (and other areas but these are the areas I work in) and they are always staying on top of the latest issues and caselaw. Speaker Law also works hard to educate the courts and attorneys to keep all of us up to speed. And they keep it fun! For example, earlier this year, I had the opportunity to discuss my cases and issues with Liisa and Jordan while enjoying a private boat ride on the Grand River! They are responsive, effective, and they win! Keep up the good work!
