After hiring the wrong attorney last time for a custody issue, we made an effort to find the best attorney in our area to handle our most recent case. Our case was long and drawn out and required constant follow up with a less than organized opposing counsel. When we hired Lisa, we didn't realize we would be getting a whole TEAM of professionals. Lisa & Josh were always on time with deadlines and were available to me whenever I needed to vent, ask a question or share an experience. They became like family, which is not probably something most people say about their legal representation. And like family, there were times where I needed to hear how it should go, rather than how I was hoping it would go. The result from hiring the best Legal Dream Team in Central Texas was outstanding and I would strongly recommend both Lisa and Josh to any of my friends or family in need of family law advice and assistance. I hope that we don't ever have to go through what we have been through in this last go-round, but if we do, I know who our first call will be to.

Lisa was great to work with, very knowledgeable and very responsive. Very helpful during difficult circumstances

When you come to Lisa Richardson's office, it's usually for a pretty negative reason, and that is the dissolution of a marriage. Lisa and her associates did everything to make me feel comfortable and understood during this process. Her insight into matters of divorce is incredibly detailed but she makes certain to explain things so they are easily understood. I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone in need of assistance with their difficult family matters.

I met Lisa for a low cost consultation once and then a second time for a follow up. Lisa is compassionate and took the time to understand what I was hoping to accomplish in my divorce. She is straightforward, and gave me hope for a future beyond divorce. Her care and concern for the children were also her top priority. I did not hire Lisa, due to the amount of the retainer.( My husband and I agree on all terms of the divorce, and hoped that the divorce could be done for less) However, I'm forever grateful for her wisdom, time and encouragement. Her staff is also very friendly too!

I have started the process by interviewing Divorce lawyers. After I met with Lisa, I made my mind quickly and decided to hire her. I am happy with my decision, she is very experienced and her recommendations were very valuable to my case and had positive impact on outcome. She is prompt, professional and pays attention to details, all of which exceeded my expectation. Her office is well run and her staff has been great through out the process. I highly recommend Lisa.

I am so glad I found Lisa and her staff to handle my divorce. During a time of my life where nothing made sense, their firm helped keep me focused. They were able to handle my case with grace and empathy (both of which I needed at the time) We were able to resolve my case without mediation and they fought to ensure my settlement was fair.

Lisa was very helpful and professional. She was great to work with and very responsive in a really unpleasant situation. I'm thankful to have had her on my side (even though I hope to never have the circumstances to work with her again...)

Facing what I knew was going to be a bitter divorce, I came to attorney Lisa Richardson lost, bewildered and literally shaking in fear. After extensive research for a competent attorney, I chose Lisa based great reviews from her clients, but it was the reviews from her opposing council that made my decision. If attorneys who’d battled her in court gave her rave reviews, I knew I’d made the right choice. I’d warned Lisa this was likely going to be a long and difficult divorce, and was honest with her about the skeletons in my own closet, and would understand if she didn’t want to take the case. Undaunted and up for the challenge, she sat down with me and explained in detail the steps we’d take to get me out of this mess, and what I could expect from beginning to bitter end. My then-husband had the audacity to demand I sign the original, ridiculous decree his attorney had drawn up, claiming we weren’t married, had no community property and that all our assets belonged to him, including our $700,000 house. He also demanded we use the same attorney, which would have been a huge mistake, as she did not have my best interest at heart. My ex filed for divorce just days after my mother died, and while I was out of town planning her funeral. He was attempting kick me when I was down and most vulnerable. He actually picked me up from my mother’s funeral and presented me with the decree and took me straight to the notary to sign it before I even had time to dry the tears from losing my mother. He told me we had to use the same attorney, it’d already been drawn up and there was “really no reason to read it.” I couldn’t believe bald-face lies stated in the decree. I turned to him and said, “Do you really know what this means? That I’d be homeless and living under a bridge?” He said, “You’re a smart girl. You’ll figure it out.” I was so intimidated that I went into the notary, and shaking, started to sign it. The notary read the decree, then looked up at me with shock and asked me if I understood what I was going to be signing. Then she read it aloud to me, word for word, and asked again, “Do you really want to sign this? Do you understand what this means? I’m not an attorney, but I think you should really get your own lawyer and get some advice.” He was outraged when I when I didn't do as I was told and immediately just sign that he told me I couldn’t come home until I agreed. He’d told me I was a smart girl and figure it out? Well, I did figure it out. I met and retained Attorney Lisa Richardson. Smartest move I ever made. Lisa stood up to this bully and not only stood by me, she charged ahead, pulling no punches, enduring the barrage of ranting, bullying emails he sent to both Lisa and me. Not only did Lisa never back down, she took the bull by horns and fearlessly fought for me. My ex didn’t know what hit him. He’d originally refused to go to mediation, but through arduous negotiation, Lisa forced him to do just that. She arranged the mediation in such a way I not only didn’t have to sit across the table from him, I didn’t even have to see him. Knowing he was angry and unreasonable, Lisa shrewdly arranged to have a judge perform the mediation, saving me the anguish and expense of actually taking this all the way to court. I leaned on her courage, followed her advice and am happily finally free of this tyrant. I highly recommend Lisa and her team. I couldn’t have done this without her. Lisa turned what could have been a horror story into a happily ever after.
