Our Philosophy

Our mission is to never lose sight of how difficult a family law case is on our clients and to be the best advocates we can be for them through understanding their needs and the needs of their case and by showing compassion in every step of the process.

Our cases involve divorce, custody, child support, property division and collaborative law. These types of cases are often emotionally charged and the last thing our clients need is for the lawyers and "the system" to make their case more difficult.

We believe our clients should control their own destiny and we use all of our cumulative resources to help guide them to an amicable and less costly solution to their legal problems.

Even so, we the attorneys at Hoppes & Cutrer, know that oftentimes an amicable solution is not possible. Our skills as trial practitioners have been finely tuned in our years of practice. Each of us is a seasoned litigator and has received praise from clients, fellow attorneys and Judges for our common sense, straight-forward approach to cases.

Most importantly, the clients of Hoppes & Cutrer have noted that they feel they are receiving personal attention, are being charged fairly and are being treated with respect. Generally, a family dispute is a painful experience. But when it becomes inevitable, at least there are compassionate, fair-minded legal teams like us, Lisa Hoppes and Anita Cutrer, to guide you through those difficult times.
