I came to LASHER in the middle of one of the hardest seasons of my life. I was already deep into a high-conflict custody battle—accusations flying, constant tension in co-parenting, and an looming out-of-state move by the other parent that put everything on the line. It was the kind of situation that wears you down mentally, emotionally, and financially. At that point, I made the difficult decision to change attorneys mid-case… and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From the moment Betsy Hershman stepped in, everything changed. Betsy didn’t just represent me—she led me. When things felt chaotic and uncertain, she brought clarity, direction, and a steady hand. She has a rare ability to see the full picture, cut through the noise, and guide you forward with both strength and compassion. There were moments where I genuinely didn’t know how things would turn out, but she never lost sight of what mattered most, my daughter —and she made sure I didn’t either. Lisa Sharpe and Faye Washburn were equally incredible. The entire team operated with professionalism, responsiveness, and a level of care that made me feel supported every step of the way. Because of LASHER, I didn’t just “get through” my case—I came out the other side with the most important parts of my life intact, and a meaningful, workable parenting plan that gives me stability and hope moving forward. If you’re reading this and you’re in the middle of something overwhelming like I was—wondering if you made the right choices or if things are going to fall apart—this is the team you want in your corner. They don’t just show up. They lead you through the wilderness. I’m incredibly grateful for Betsy, Lisa, and Faye. Truly exceptional people doing exceptional work.
