Empowering LGBT Couples, Families And Individuals With Strong Advocacy

Last updated on April 15, 2025

Despite tremendous advances for the rights of same-sex couples in recent years, challenges still remain, including issues of child custody. The law has yet to recognize unmarried same-sex parents as equals. In many crucial respects, the law falls short when it comes to families that don’t fit the traditional picture of a mom and dad with biological children. This often leads to roadblocks and, at times, devastating injustices.

Lisa Stern is familiar with the challenges that nontraditional families confront and is committed to helping you overcome them. Lisa is at the forefront of this emerging area of family law. As a dedicated advocate for LGBT rights as well as an accomplished family law practitioner, she is well-positioned to guide you through these often uncharted legal waters.

Lisa understands the lack of legal protections for members of the LGBT community in other aspects of life as well. Many face daily discrimination by employers and private citizens with no legal recourse. She assists clients in navigating these challenges with those means that are currently available.

You can turn to Lisa for trusted counsel on issues such as:

  • Adoption and paternity
  • Equitable parenthood
  • Custody decisions and disputes
  • Child support
  • Changes to existing custody or support orders
  • Discrimination both in the workplace and in the community

Lisa is dedicated to changing the law to provide members of the LGBT community with equal rights in Michigan.

You’re In Good Hands For The Challenges Ahead

When you turn to Lisa for help, you gain more than just a lawyer; you gain a trusted ally. What’s important to you is important to her. She will stand beside you with the support, guidance and advocacy you need during this difficult time.

What to expect: At our firm, you can expect diligent, attentive and respectful legal service. Lisa will be available to address your questions and concerns whenever they arise – even after standard business hours.
