Lisa has a natural tenacity and was very thorough defending my position in court. Even opposing council made mention of the detail of her preparation! She communicated regularly and in a timely manner, sending me every email and document so that we could move forward together.

I give Lisa Owen my highest recommendation.”
“I have been using Lisa Owen as an attorney since 2001. She has helped me with business partnerships, adoption and divorce. I am a hairstylist and I see over a thousand men and women a year in my chair and over thirty attorneys in the Metro Atlanta area. Of all the attorneys I have come across, Lisa surpasses them all. Throughout the years she has been the one attorney I have highly recommended to my personal clientele. Her manner and how she handles her clients is top-notch. Lisa is the best divorce attorney I know and I have gotten nothing but great feedback from people I have referred to her.”
