Alissa is a no BS kind of attorney you want to represent you in your case. Be honest with Alissa to get the fullest she has to offer in representing your case and she will get the job done. Alissa plans ahead. Alissa and her staff keeps me informed. Alissa is very quick to respond to text, email, or telephone, even one time while on a family trip. I'm very pleased with her actions as my attorney and would recommend Alissa to anyone. Job well done Alissa! Thank you and your staff for helping me through a difficult time in my life.

Alissa L Van Horn went above and beyond in helping our family become whole. She represented us with class in a Foster Care System that can be very dispiriting. Lighting up our journey with her trusting confidence in the legal system, from start to finish she led our fostercare to adoption au courant!
