Lex Llanusa

Senior Paralegal I

Alexis ‘Lex’ Llanusa grew up in Orange County, California, surrounded by eleven cousins close in age. Being part of a big, close-knit family made standing up for people second nature, and early on, Lex knew she wanted a career built around advocating for others. She earned a Bachelor’s in Criminology and Psychology from Regis University, followed by a Master of Legal Studies with a dual focus in Family and Criminal Law from Arizona State University.

That advanced training in both legal frameworks and human psychology shapes how Lex manages complex family law matters today. Over seven years in practice, spanning litigation, high-conflict divorces, custody disputes, protection orders, and adoptions, Lex has developed a reputation for clear-headed strategy and meticulous case management. She works as the attorney’s true right hand, untangling complicated financial disclosures, tracking down missing records, and ensuring no deadline slips through the cracks.

What sets Lex apart in daily case operations is her commitment to building direct, open relationships with her clients. She stays accessible, talks through case developments in plain language, and helps clients navigate the anxiety that often accompanies financial disclosures or custody hearings. Her advice for keeping a case running smoothly is grounded in reality: stay organized, get documentation in early, and share the full story with your legal team from day one so there are no surprises in court.

What you may not know: Lex is an identical twin! Outside the firm, she spends her free time coordinating sports schedules for her two young children, spanning gymnastics, football, jujitsu, and swimming. Her household is also home to a German Shepherd named Kane and a giant tortoise named Summer.
