  Extremely professional firm, especially Ms. Lisa Brock. I am so grateful for their representation and continued support throughout a very difficult divorce. Without them, navigating this situation would be much more stressful.

  Don Lawrence was a very productive and professional lawyer. I met Don after 5 years in litigation. Every lawyer I worked with before Don Lawrence was inept and couldn't or wouldn't understand the facts of the case. Don was extremely active in managing his time and what I paid. Lisa Ward and Don Lawrence are the lawyer's lawyer! If you need a legal team that cares and are good at what they do. They are for you.

  Terrible representation. Rachel Brock seems to not care one bit about her client. We had the exact same conversation three separate times, for which I paid full amount all three times. She was late to my initial status conference and did nothing for me there, aside from allowing opposing council to slander my name. After paying her for doing nothing for me and my case, I switched firms. I then received great help because my case was not a difficult one. However, it was seemingly difficult for Ms. Brock.

  Best family law firm in town. Lisa Ward is very dedicated to finding the best outcome for her clients. I have greatly benefited from her experience and knowledge of the law. She saved me thousands of dollars and from making very common mistakes.

  It's never fun to interact with attorneys but I have to say that I had the best experience with the Lisa Ward Law Firm. I left feeling confident, protected and accomplished. My legal needs were met and I highly recommend Lisa and her firm!

  I have had one of the most difficult and evil divorces imaginable! False accusations of unconscionable abuses, multiple businesses on the line, audits, homes, property, common law marriage, 3 incredible children, pets, other assets.... An X with drug issues, DWIs, psychological problems and on an absolute war path to destroy me however she can. Lisa Ward has guided me and my family through this most difficult 8 years so far with the kindness and fortitude of a true master, a warrior of sorts. She has navigated motion after motion, accusation after crazy accusation, court date after court date, appraisals both for businesses and real estate, parenting agreements, bogus restraining orders 2 of them, trials, custody disputes and everything else you can imagine in the most destructive hurtful divorce imaginable. Lisa Ward and her incredible staff have stopped everything to console me in the hardest of times but also fought tooth and nail when needed. They have stayed late to ensure every single detail is in perfect order for some emergency hearing sprung on us at the last second. We have been up against several of the leading attorneys in the state during my unbelievable 8 year case. Lisa Ward and her fine tuned team has never let me down but more importantly she has always come through for my children and their best interests, even when the cards were stacked heavily against me by malicious design. I have sent countless families to this firm over the years and have gotten just as many thank yous from doing so. If you are in the simplest divorce situation or have everything to lose and I mean everything is on the line you can not go wrong with the team at Lisa Wards firm. They have always come through for my family and have never once been dishonest or compromised my integrity or reputation to the courts. Lisa and her team have an unwavering, solid reputation with every judge in La Plata county. I believe the courts know what to expect and know that what she says or bri

  Professional and timely I cannot thank Lisa Ward and her wonderful paralegals for getting me though the toughest time of my life. Lisa Ward guiding me though the divorce with dignity. She has a wonderful code of ethics. Lisa Ward was tough, to the point, and knowledgeable. With business assets, properties, and personal assets she was able to negotiate with fairness and with my best interest at heart. She kept the process moving forward and anticipated all the road blocks that the other party tried. Her Paralegal -Melissa- kept me informed and on track. The whole office worked to responded to calls and emails in a timely fashion. I would highly recommend Lisa Ward Law Firm for anyone who is going though a separation/divorce that is high conflict.

  I have had the opportunity to work with Lisa, Don and Brian on various matters. There are only two law firms in the Four Corners I would consider working when it comes to family, custody, criminal or other matters and The Ward Law Firm is one of them. My first experience was working with Brian. Mr Imel is incredibly knowledgeable, highly detailed with his communication and very well respected. He is no nonsense and takes matters very, very seriously. Brian tells you how it is and does an incredible job advocating fact and truth few know how. The results speak volumes. I have consulted and worked with Lisa and Don on many matters including premarital agreements, time sharing and some unfortunate emergency matters. Between the both of them, I think it might be fair to say they possess over 75 years of family law, civil, federal and criminal experience. They are no strangers to extremely challenging litigation where high conflict is inevitable. Though the litigation might be challenging, never once have I seen any attorney from their firm engage the unnecessary toxicity other lawyers try to create. Don and Lisa stay focused, take the high road and maintain the focus on where it needs to be - the client and family. While the firm is not " cheap" to work with, you get what you pay for. If you are in need of a firm who is not afraid to aggressively represent you, one that has credibility and one that can achieve the results you and your family need...Work with them. If it had not been for Brian, Lisa and Don , my family today as it is might be very different. I highly recommend them and issue this review noting that I have tremendous respect for these three professionals.
