Worst attorney I’ve ever spoken to. I knew in the first 5 minutes of the phone consultation that she was a joke. She was extremely rude, I felt as if I was talking to the opposing parties attorney. She belittled me and told me to go to the town clerk if I don’t know how to read. I actually had to tell her halfway through the consultation to take it easy on me because she was treating me like gum on the bottom of her shoe. Charged me $75 for a lousy 10 minute phone call just to gaslight and berate me. The only thing she really cared about was the $10,000 retainer I’d have to pay if I DID end up accepting her help. What a joke.

Not sure where to begin with this one - a legal hack may be a compliment, she papered my brother with nonsense and outrageous motion after motion , subpoenaed myself and my 85 year old parents , filed for a GAL , filed bs ex parte motions that were all denied, and put my young nieces through absolute hell. Even when my brother and his ex had an agreement with family services that they both agreed she said no. The end result— $60k blown by my former Sister in law’s father, their home foreclosed on as i guess they took a second mortgage they couldn’t afford to pay her legal fees . My brother and his ex wife have joint custody (physical and legal) , and due to income disparity , he pays about $1200 a month in child support. Fortunately for the kids sake, my brother gets along with his ex and they co-parent well, kids are doing great. Conclusion: if you want to hire an old bitter hag who hates men and children and if you want to pay to have this idiot try to destroy your family, hire Lisa

I have practiced with and against Attorney Faccadio for over 33 years. She is ethical, prepared, and cares deeply about her clients and their cases. She is one of the best colleagues I've ever had, and many others feel the same.

Where do I begin.This despicable attorney works only for herself giving no regard to the client who is paying her.I spent over $14,000 with this incompetent attorney and in the end she yielded no results.I accomplished what I needed to do on my own.I heard she was reputable and tough, don't know what has become of Lisa, however she should rethink why she got into this profession in the first place.She should not to allowed to practice law anymore since her objective is to bleed her clients dry.She is crude, abrasive and extremely greedy.She doesn't believe in modern day technology like email.She demands you fax her everything and then charges outrageous fees to read and mail out duplicate communications!Her phone calls are redundant and charges your savings away!Lisa Faccadio will even charge you for the visit to argue her abnormal charges for no results yielded!She will act as if she wants to come to an agreement but never will while charging you!You will have no retainer left!I sent

Do not hire Lisa!A couple people recommender her and said oh she's great but expensive!!! They must be dumber then a box of rocks!! She will make all kinds of promises but deliver none. Lisa and her firm will make all kinds of mistakes and still charge you. Missed dates to have paperwork in. Keep pushing court out and tell you to do things so you keep fighting with your spouse. If you confront her about mistakes or the bill she will flip out and tell you to go elsewhere. Lisa says I only charge 350.00 and hour but double charges you. They will send you copies of everything then send you the same copies from the court. WTF!!!The whole legal system is corrupt and the lawyers play into it. This cost me 25,000 for a simple divorce that could have been 3,500 for a mediator. Only good thing was my ex spent over 35,000 and got what I suggested in the first place. LOL!

attorney faccadio doesnt use email, so she charges about $500 to stick a copy of the other side's email into an envelope and send it to you. getting documents to her is problematic, while the other side uses the internet. she contributes to the other side's war of attrition and wears you down, sucks up your money, and gets no results.

This attorney is all about Lisa Faccadio.she no longer has any recall to why she became an attorney, unless to rip folks off blind. She omits highly important information to be sure cases drag out and oh believe me, should you be the defendant and she decides she hates you, she will stop at nothing regardless of what her client requests. All becomes personal and she becomes a back stabbing, lying, manipulative undermining roach who thinks she is above the law she is supposed to uphold. We shall see... The law is the law and no one is above it. Lastly, how sad she has sucked all her fine staff into having to lower their standards and morals to be her frontline.. Talk to your clients and others and man up... Karma exists... Just glad I sleep at night

Lisa Faccadio should not be permitted to practice law, family or other. Her unethical ways, lack of morals or concern for even her own client take the back seat to the fact that as long as she is making money she can care less the outcome of the case or how much she bleeds her clients. I will NEVER in a million years ever recommend her to anyone, including my worst enemy - who, thanks to Faccadio, is not the person I am divorcing because her most unethical of tactics pulled us together to know how bad she really is. This attorney will hopefully have her day before the ethics committee of the bar association - someone has to explain to her that if she ever became a lawyer to make a difference in someone's life, the only difference she makes is that the client becomes poor and makes out like crap in court while she becomes richer and doesn't care what she does to get there. Sad.

Be aware of this attorney, she is more than a Barracuda, she's a Piranha! You will be asked for your credit card while you sitting in court waiting to be divorced. Your life is in her hands, it felt like extortion to me. Please know if your spouse consistently lies she will file contempt motions, depositions and subpeonas but will never act on them. My spouse was in contempt the whole divorce and he walked away with more than half of the estate, and of course, I got all the debt. Over $30K spent and nothing was preserved for this honest, well abiding citizen. No wonder why she walks in a full length mink to court. She doesn't care who she offends, not even her clients!! After divorce, she will continue working for you for no reason, actually harrass you for an additional retainer for post judgement....just in case something comes up. What should come up? A spouse in constant contempt walked away with more than his share of my hard earned work, no penalty what so ever!! BE AWARE!!

Lisa has represented adversaries of mine in highly contested trials. She was thoroughly prepared, honest and tenacious -- even if she was on the wrong side. I would hire her in a heartbeat.

Terrible... I am a young single mother who she took advantage of. Her paralegal did all of her work, she lied, I had $1200 of just her voicemails at 5am on a Sunday morning. She Lost my case because she didn't give the judge any of my paperwork. I would not recomend her to anyone except for my enemies . She should be disbarred she is a shame to all lawyers out there

Lisa Faccadio is AWESOME as well as her office staff. I felt as though I was her only client every minute. She is all business yet very very compassionate if you look beneath her quick, intelligent, non-dramatic ways. She knows divorce inside and out. Some say she is expensive but she is no more per hour than other Attorneys. The difference in the higher cost is that she crosses all t's and dots all i's,watches her money and YOURS.Any Attorney who says they can do it for less is doing less of a job for you.She is honest, forthright, professional and has high integrity.Divorce is never easy and no one ever wins but Attorney Faccadio gets you the BEST outcome for the situation you place in her hands.She is not a magician and cannot change the circumstances presented to her.Anyone who gives this Attorney a poor rating is only doing so from an unhappy emotional state and is not acknowledging and taking responsibility for their own situation that they came to her with in the first place.

She is very good! I had one of the worst most bitter divorces that hit the middletown court in 30 years and she was excellent. Yes she has a lot of cases and that is a testiment to how many people like her and use her. With over 30 years of practicing divorce law she has heard it all and knows what you want and will get it. She does not sling mud or go back and forth on things but systematically does what has to be done to get the outcome you want. She will not yell or jump up and down. Most of the case is handled outside of the courtroom and inside it she is all business.

First off: Yes, Faccadio is a bit pricey. She is a lawyer. You get what you pay for. Pricey? Yes. Good lawyers are. Someone said when she goes to court she has other cases. Well, she is a lawyer. She has court cases! Would one complain if a doctor was in a hospital seeing several patients? Knowledge: Great. She knows her stuff. Sends a letter every single time she does something. Fast talker. Pay attention. She will answer any queations you have. All I can say, is that I spent a lot, and I made out well. Divorce sucks. Things have to get done. As with anything in life, the better things cost money. I would use her again. But, I will never get married again. Unless "she" has money this time! LOL Please, do everything possible before going through a divorce. Hurts the kids. Kills your wallet (or purse). I still love my wife, but I messed up. I love Lisa. Wish I could give her a nice long foot rub. But thats another story :-)

If you don't believe all of these negative reviews then do some research. She is the WalMart of lawyers - quantity vs. quality is her strategy. Lisa has 5-10 cases on every Monday morning. GO to the court and see for yourself. How could she possiblty remember all of the details of each and do you right? She then stirs the pot and files 5X the motions than every other lawyer. Cha Ching $$.. Don't believe it? Go to CT Judicial website and do a case lookup by attorney name and look at some of her cases. She is an expert at playing on your emotiions and using the system to drain both your and your spouses account. If this is the type of representation you want then I hope you have the emotional and financial stabilty to hang in for the long run becasue you'll need it.

She is good but very overpriced. Not worth what she charges. Be careful they overcharge here. Have to watch your bills carefully. Will bill you for the same thing twice or more. The meter keeps running even when you no longer use her, so if you still owe something when done, beware.

Wow! Couldn't do better than this attorney. She really knows her stuff. Tough, but thorough. Where other lawyers, and there are plenty, mess up as in my case, she repairs it and delivers more. She is honest, to the point and caring. I would refer people to her anytime.

Atty. Faccadio has always done well by me. She has been my atty. since I was divorced in 2002 and have used her for every modification. However, I know my ex-husband wishes I would use someone else.

I feel that Attorney Faccadio is direct and to the point. She takes a no non-sense approach to her work. I do feel that at times that I need to be direct as to what I want the outcome to be. You are being billed for every minute of her time so listen carefully and take notes. Good lawyers are not inexpensive. She worked very hard for me.

The worst mistake I ever made. She was a horrible lawyer who billed me thousands & thousands. She did not do any of the things she was charging me for. The worst lawyer available - stay away from this one! You would do better on your own!

Do not use this lawyer! The only thing she cares about is the money and not you. She did a horrific job on my friend's divorce case but made over 10,000 dollars! She never properly researched the case at all, she knew the other party involved was working as he lied on his financial affadavit and to his own lawyer. She knew of this in advance but finally made a phone call to verify his employment the last day in court! She was very condenscending and extremely arrogant to her client. If you would like to win your case and end up well off, NEVER use this lawyer!

Did not research my case thoroughly and gave me the wrong information. Had I knew what to expect in my case, if she had done her research first, I would not have had her represent me. I wouldn't have contested and had it cost me 7,000.00 in the 4 months from start to finish.
