Lisa R. McCall joined the firm as an associate attorney in June 2012. She has a background in civil appeals and writs, with extensive experience handling family law appellate matters. Ms. McCall has served as both program chair and section chair of the appellate section of the Orange County Bar Association, responsible for planning educational programs for appellate attorneys in Orange County and facilitating the relationship between the appellate bench and bar.
Ms. McCall earned her J.D., cum laude, from Whittier Law School in 2006, where she was a senior member of the Whittier Law School Journal of Child and Family Advocacy, a teaching assistant in first-year legal writing, and an active member of the Public Interest Law Foundation.

She became a member of the bar of the United States Supreme Court in December 2010.
Ms. McCall has volunteered with Public Law Center, where she represented pro bono family law litigants, and regularly volunteers with Constitutional Rights Foundation of Orange County, where she serves as an attorney judge at the annual Constitutional Rights Foundation mock trial competitions.

For the past two years, Ms. McCall has privately tutored law students in the areas of legal writing and law school examination preparation. In Fall 2012, she was invited by her alma mater, Whittier Law School, to be an adjunct professor, where she currently co-teaches an Appellate Advocacy course.
With her background in appeals and writs, primarily in family law cases, Ms. McCall brings "hindsight" insight to the firm. She is experienced in the statement of decision process and in preparing and preserving the record for appeal.
