Testimonials

“Alisa provided clear-cut messaging and consultation. Her professionalism and clarity allowed her to work with an open mind, providing the support to make me to feel confident that my separation would be fair, and I would not suffer huge financial loss. Alisa had expertise in child care laws that neither I, nor my spouse’s lawyer, were aware of. Divorce doesn’t have to be difficult when your lawyer works with you!”
– Matt

“Alisa and her team used grit and tenacity during my divorce case. I wanted to achieve long-term financial support and primary custody of my children, and Alisa helped me do just that! She achieved 10 years of non-modifiable spousal support and 60% custody. She was recommended to me by a friend, and I will pay it forward for the next friend who needs a strong attorney!”
-Jennifer

“The best thing about working with Alisa was the way she was able to communicate well on my behalf. In the middle of a post-divorce case, Alisa assured me that our strategy would work. I am very satisfied with the outcome and would recommend her to any friend looking for a great lawyer!”
-Edward

“If my spouse had an issue, I would counsel with Alisa. Her communication and advice made me comfortable. My spouse wanted to split the debts and keep the assets, leaving me wanting to give up. But Alisa assured me that even the court would not accept that. She was my rock! Because of Alisa, everything was in sync, and custody turned out exactly how I hoped.”
-Audrey

“Alisa kept me grounded with her compassion. When my emotions ran high, she reminded me to look down the road, that my life will improve. She did not inflame issues like other attorneys do. I would absolutely recommend her to any friend who needs an attorney, especially when children are involved. Alisa has the ability to lay the groundwork for a collaborative divorce, allowing us to make decisions collectively.”

She was able to cut through the peripheral issues of a highly difficult case and focus on the true issues to achieve a positive outcome for all parties.

“Ms. Peskin-Shepherd handled a divorce for me in 2006. Not my first divorce, it was the best experience I have had with any attorney for any legal situation. She is knowledgeable, acts quickly and concisely, and her professionalism is excellent. I was divorced in a matter of months, and she was instrumental in moving it along so that I could move on. I would recommend her to anyone who is facing a difficult legal situation and wants the best available help. Great results. Expert. High Integrity.”
