Elisa Cantu and Allison King were amazing!! They helped me so much in my case. They provided the guidance and reassurance I needed as well as answering my many questions. Ms. Cantu was amazing in court and argued for me better than I could have even imagined! I’m so thankful for both their help navigating the whole process!
I don’t even know where to start with this review. Unfortunately, 5 stars doesn’t even scratch the surface of how thankful I am for Elisa and Guadalupe.
I walked into Elisa’s office with my life falling apart around me and what felt like an uphill battle. From the very beginning, Elisa was personable, understanding, and realistic about my situation. Not once did she lose faith in me or make me feel like I was fighting it alone.
She guided me through an abnormal amount of litigation, including my CPO matter and modification action. She worked tirelessly to bring two courts from across the country together to sort out custodial issues, which is a feat in itself. Most importantly, she kept my child’s best interest at the front of every decision.
Guadalupe is an outstanding paralegal. During an emotionally tumultuous time, and through declaration after declaration, she was able to make sense of everything I was trying to explain and tune it up to perfection. That meant more than I can put into words.
I truly cannot recommend this office enough. Elisa and Guadalupe helped me through one of the hardest chapters of my life, and I will always be grateful for the work they did for me and my child.
I’ve never had experience with anyone in law until this office. These ladies are extraordinary. The front desk, Debbie, Allison. They made me feel safe, seen, heard, protected. Like a flock of mother hens. Truly, they are amazing. I don’t really have the proper words to describe their level of love and care. It’s something to feel from your core because words don’t do them justice. I recommend them with every fiber of my being – they WILL take care of you and exceed your expectations.
Great lawyer’s very professional lady’s really know family law and its practice. Great job!
I cannot say enough good things about Elisa Cantu and the entire team at Chvatal King Cantu, including their outstanding paralegals. They have been there for me from the very beginning and through the end (and continuation) of the most hellacious, 6+ year prolonged divorce and even worse custody battle I never imagined I would find myself in.
From the start, the absolutely heinous actions of my ex-wife—actions that initially destroyed my world physically, mentally, emotionally, and financially—left me overwhelmed and broken. Elisa stepped in when I needed someone who could not only fight, but care. To this day, she continues to represent and guide me through a constant barrage of divorce and custody hearings that seem to never end due to an extremely toxic ex-spouse (and I’m being generous with that description).
A lot of attorneys talk a good game—but Elisa Cantu actually delivers. She takes the time to truly listen to her clients and, more importantly, genuinely cares about their needs—big or small—and about achieving the right outcome. Elisa and her team invest their time where it truly matters: planning, preparing, and executing in court. When it’s time to stand before a judge, she is ready.
Elisa maintains a consistent, professional, calm, and composed demeanor in and out of the courtroom. She is cool, collected, and confident—but don’t get it twisted. When the situation calls for it, she brings out the big guns and is absolutely prepared to fight. That balance makes her an adversary most attorneys do not want to tangle with (whether they admit it or not), and it is clearly respected by the judges—which you will notice when rulings consistently fall in your favor.
Elisa has taken care of me throughout an absolute nightmare of a divorce that my ex-wife has intentionally dragged out for over six years. If that doesn’t say something, I don’t know what does. Hire Elisa, listen to her, trust the process—the proof is in the pudding.
Don’t wait. Don’t hesitate. Hire her and thank me later.
Elisa Cantu is a great attorney; she is very knowledgeable and understanding. She helped us with our Civil case; our communications were very great and her responsiveness where on point. She is very empathetic, and compassionate. Her hard work led to a favorable outcome, relieving significant stress. I would highly recommend her for your attorney needs.
Exelentes abogados. Elisa cantu exelente abogada me alludo mucho en mi caso.100% la recomiendo
Trustworthy.
Knowledgeable, communicative, and respectful. They make it super easy to accomplish things in a timely manner. Handled all paperwork and made my life easier.
I am very pleased with attorney Elisa Cantu. She is very easy to work with. I had a great outcome on my final court. If you need an attorney for family law please don’t hesitate to contact Elisa Cantu she is one of the best in the Tri-City area.
Mrs Cantu was excellent, honest and represented me very well. She cared about my situation and fought hard for me. Thank you!
Elisa Cantu was my divorce attorney at Chvatal King Law. When this started, I had no idea what I was doing. I was intimidated to advocate for myself, not wanting to make things worse. Elisa gently but effectively showed me how important it was. She was my beacon during difficult times. In court, she was confident, knowledgeable, and conducted herself flawlessly. I will be forever grateful to her.
Les recomendamos a elisa Cantù iso un trabajo genial excellente , tenia otro abogado y dos anos no iso nada , elisa Cantù firme fuerte iso su Travajo fue un proseso facil y rapido .
Ms. Elisa has been an incredible advocate for me during one of the most difficult times in my life. Her compassion, clarity, and focus on what’s best for my child made all the difference. She’s helped me see the long-term impact of each decision when it was hard to see beyond the moment. She’s an extremely wise woman, and she continues to remind me of what really matters, even when emotions run high. I truly don’t have the words to fully express my gratitude for what she has given. I’d recommend her over and over and over again. Thank you Mr…. Ms. Elisa, hehe (inside joke)
Elisa Cantu was my lawyer for about 7 months, she and her assistant were amazing! They helped me jump through some tough legal hoops in a very timely and professional manner, all done with care and excellence. I Highly recommend her and her staff.
Quiero dar las gracias a Elisa Cantu, ella es quien llevo mi caso de divorcio, recomendada ampliamente, es una excelente abogada, pronto arreglo mi situación legal, aparte es un grandioso ser humano, ella me escucho y me hizo sentir muy bien, después de escucharme llorar por temas que traía y ella me oriento y me ayudo en resolver temas legales.
Me encantó que aparte de hacer una gran labor en su profesión es empática. Una gran calidad humana.
Una amiga, me la recomendó y ahora yo la recomiendo.
Si consideras en contratar a algún abogado, Elisa cantu es la indicada.
Muchisimas gracias Elisa Cantu.
Elisa cantu was so thorough and reassuring. Elisa does not disappoint. I would recommend her to anyone navigating a divorce or family law.
They worked with me really good! Elisa cantu got me what I wanted. Even after I started my case I still was able to move states with no problem because of her help. Thank you!
Elisa Cantu is an outstanding attorney! She helped me win my case with professionalism and attention to detail. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dedicated and knowledgeable lawyer.
Elisa Cantu was my lawyer I honestly can’t explain how grateful I am with her I was going through so much custody issues restraining orders Elisa guided me the whole way through it and made things happen for me she was attentive she communicated everything with me explained the options I had any email anything she responded right away super happy with her. If anyone is going custody issued or court issues I recommend Elisa or pat
I had both Pat and Elisa on my side during the hardest part of my life. To them I am forever grateful for the strife it took. My case wasn’t an easy one. There were so many factors. Each time we went to court it was beyond stressful. But my council always took great care of me. Today I now have majority custody of my children. With my background weighting against me it felt hopeless. But my lawyers pushed me and gave me the right steps to take.
I highly recommend Eliza Cantu she is an amazing attorney, her paralegal was amazing to work with as well!
I worked with Elisa Cantu on my divorce, she kept it as simple as possible and walked me through each step through and after the divorce. I really appreciate all the hard work and knowledge she brought to the table.
Going through divorce is stressful and exhausting. Elisa and Guadalupe relieved that stress and allowed me to focus on every day tasks instead of dwelling on the divorce. The customer service is amazing ( I couldn’t think of a better word than amazing or I would have used it). The amount of patience they had with me as they answered all my questions was the icing on the cake for me. They really make you feel welcome and comfortable in all the chaos of divorce. Everyone says divorce is insanely expensive and I was expecting to pay way more for the divorce but that is simply not the case ( I imagine price will vary depending on the situation you’re in.) I feel like I took advantage of them because of how little I payed for the entire process. That was the cherry on top of the icing. I can’t express how thankful I am for all the support and help with the divorce and parenting plan. Thank you Elisa and Guadalupe! You are truly amazing!
I hired Chvatal King law to support me during an extremely emotionally challenging and complicated divorce. Both Elisa Cantu and Guadalupe were exceptional, professional, knowledgeable and have the best interest of their client.
I am extremely grateful to have been able to retain their services and would strongly recommend their team.
This law firm has been quite a blessing to me , they are truly there to assist you.Elisa Cantu,in my opinion is an awesome attorney, she helped me with my divorce, without having to be drug through the mud, the staff is awesome as well there to assist in anyway you need.
I went to several law offices for a consultation before I saw Elisa. After the consult, I knew she was the one Id want to hire. She was kind and professional. I felt like I was in safe hands. Thank you Elisa and Guadalupe for all your work!
Attorney Elisa Cantu was the best. At my appointment she not only listened to me, advised me on what step I could take, and she was with me every step of the way. Best decision ever.
Thank you, Elisa Cantù
First of all I would like to thank Elisa cantu. She did an amazing job with my case. She was very patient heard me out and delivered. Her hard work and charisma is unmatched. She truly cares about her clients thanks to her I was able to get custody of my daughter for a few months. Also Lupe Mendoza was a big help in this process as she was able to prepare all my paperwork and had everything in order for me. These young ladies are great at what they do and truly care, if your looking for a GREAT lawyer Elisa Cantu is who I highly recommend.
Elisa Cantu represented me for guardianship of my nieces I’m so grateful I found her she helped me so much with protection orders, filling paperwork. Had great communication kept me up to date with everything. If anyone’s looking for an attorney I recommend Elisa!
Thank you again Elisa and Guadalupe!
Elisa and I worked together when she helped me get a protection order. Elisa was very empathetic and understanding as I shared the very personal details of my situation. She was professional, punctual and took time to explain my options and how the court system works. She was a fierce defender of my safety and my right to live peacefully and not be threatened. We had to go to court several times and Elisa always took the time to listen to me and reassure me. She was well versed with this process, confident and came prepared to court in person and online. She is very personable and easy to talk to. Elisa supported me at a time in my life where I felt scared, alone and anxious. I highly recommend Elisa and Chvatal King Law. They are the type of people you would want on your side!
Words cannot describe how greatful my fiance and I are for Elisa and her office. We came to Elisa with a mess of a situation and she fought for us every step of the way! Elisa’s paralegal Guadalupe helped with any questions and communicated with us quickly! This office makes you feel like family. I would recommend HIGHLY recommend Elisa to anyone going through a high conflict situation as she knows her stuff !!
THANK YOU ELISA & CHVATAL LAW we couldn’t have done this without you.
I had Elisa Cantù as an attorney for a modification and she was absolutely amazing! She was very knowledgeable, caring and worked hard to make sure that I won my case. Which I did! If I ever have another matter that I need help with, I will not hesitate to give her a call!! I HIGHLY recommend that you do the same!!
Estoy muy contenta con el trabajo que hizo la abogada Elisa Cantú en mi caso lo resolvió en muy poco tiempo .es muy amable y atenta y muy comprometida con su trabajo si estás pasando por un divorcio y quieres un abogada que de verdad te ayude te recomiendo encarecidamente a Elisa Cantú
Elisa Cantu is amazing at what she does. If you need things done, Look no further! She has your best interest in mind and will get you what you deserve. I started with another lawyer and after our first meeting I wish I would’ve met her from the beginning. Her work ethic is unmatched.
Elisa Cantu and Allison King were amazing!! They helped me so much in my case. They provided the guidance and reassurance I needed as well as answering my many questions. Ms. Cantu was amazing in court and argued for me better than I could have even imagined! I’m so thankful for both their help navigating the whole process!
Mi experiencia con Elisa Cantú fue muy buena, Estoy muy satisfecho. La recomiendo
Elisa Cantu has been amazing in my custody and divorce. Her and her office are always quick to respond and always keeping me up to date. They are not only affordable but she has been so consistent and professional on my behalf. Elisa has been making my exes lawyer look like an amateur in comparison. I definitely recommend her.
Allison King at Chvatal King Law did fabulous job on my complicated divorce case lasting over 2 years. For one thing, we “won” every time we were in court. We eventually negotiated the exact settlement that I went into this wanting. I learned quickly to have total trust in Allison. She was not the least intimidated by any other attorney or situation and she was in command of the facts and the details of my case at all times. She gave excellent advice about getting financial experts on board early. She also advised that I come in periodically to sit down with her and review the case. This proved valuable to being well prepared and in developing a good working relationship with Allison and her staff.
It’s the nature of the game that the past 2 years were not always a pleasure. I can say that Allison King and her staff came through with flying colors. I truly appreciate the excellent service at Chvatal King Law and will be forever grateful for their care during that difficult time.
I can’t say enough good things about the service I received here. Elisa Cantu handled my domestic violence protective order. She and her team were supportive and promptly answered any questions I had. We had a positive outcome and I couldn’t be more grateful. She made a very difficult situation the best it could possibly be for me. I highly recommend this office.
Pat and Elisa did an outstanding job helping through my divorce process. They helped me and they cared about the results and it showed. You will not regret having them on your side!
The Chvatal King law group did an amazing job for me. From the first meeting I had with Pat, she listened intently to my story and situation and gave me the best direction and advise. She referred me to the best person on her team, Elisa Cantu, to help me and Elisa did an amazing job. I couldn’t have done it without her. I would recommend this law group to anyone !!
Elisa Cantu represented me in my case and I am so grateful to her for all the hard work and time she spent with me. I had a million questions as I navigated the most difficult time in my life. She answered my questions and let me voice my concerns throughout the course of my case. I feel confident that I made the right choice with her and would recommend her to friends or family!
Very good 👍
OK perfect
Elisa Cantu 10/10 highly recommend her I hired her and I was extremely happy with her service
I highly recommend this firm. They are incredibly knowledgeable and they helped me through a very difficult time. Overall I am very happy with their representation.
Having Elisa Cantu as my lawyer has been a life saver. She has been handling my case for awhile now and has gone above and beyond to help me along the way. If you are someone that is looking for the right lawyer please go check them out I highly recommend it.
Pat is kind, compassionate, and very good at what she does. My only regret is not hiring her sooner.
Allison King was very helpful and informative.

Elisa Cantu is an awesome family lawyer. She knows what she’s doing. My criminal lawyer recommended her as the best. I can attest. Elisa and Guadalupe were very responsive to emails and helpful when I had questions. I’m so glad Elisa wasn’t my opposing council!!!
Knowledgeable, communicative, and respectful. They make it super easy to accomplish things in a timely manner. Handled all paperwork and made my life easier.
Elisa, Pat and staff were exceptional. Brought in a messy case that was simplified with the least amount of hassle and grief possible. I have witnessed experiences where the only thing that seemed to matter was getting the most amount of money out of a client as possible yet my case was resolved quickly and efficiently. I also met with Pat and felt instantly valued and cared for, for which during this time was greatly appreciated. Thank you Elisa, Pat, and Guadalupe for a quick and easy resolution. I will return should I ever need services in the future.
Patricia Chvatal and Elisa Cantu are not just attorneys they really care about doing the best job possible for their clients. Elisa did a great job for my daughter during a very emotionally distressing time . She got her kids back into her life and represented her well at court in preparation for the oncoming divorce custody hearings that Patricia Chatval will handle . Pat was my divorce attorney twice , and choosing her was the best decision I made . Pat simply is the best divorce attorney in town . Elisa is a true advocate for her clients. Pat is a gentle warrior with a wealth of experience . Heed her advice as one time I didn’t, and it slowed my divorce process and cost more, which she was trying to prevent . These are wise attorneys , trust the process, and you will come out ahead . Just look at my example , as I lost my kids for three years, and Pat got them back for me . Thank you so much, Pat and Elisa .
Ms. Elisa has been an incredible advocate for me during one of the most difficult times in my life. Her compassion, clarity, and focus on what’s best for my child made all the difference. She’s helped me see the long-term impact of each decision when it was hard to see beyond the moment. She’s an extremely wise woman, and she continues to remind me of what really matters, even when emotions run high. I truly don’t have the words to fully express my gratitude for what she has given. I’d recommend her over and over and over again. Thank you Mr…. Ms. Elisa, hehe (inside joke)
My wife and I Jim and Tanya taylor were so happy to find Elisa Cantu at chvatel king family law. She made a very difficult to navigate process much easier and we got the outcome we were going for.
