State College Personal Injury Law Firm
Overview
Attorney Roy Lisko is the founder of our State College law firm, Lisko & Associates. When Mr. Lisko established our firm, he did so in order to provide the residents of Centre County and the surrounding areas in Central Pennsylvania with high-quality legal services in the areas of criminal defense and personal injury law. Today, our legal team continues to strive toward that original goal by providing aggressive representation to the clients who turn to us for help.
Mr. Lisko began his professional career as a police officer before deciding to further his education by attending law school. He earned his law degree from Capital University Law School and began his legal career in Ohio in 1978, where he served as assistant attorney general. In 1979, he returned to Pennsylvania to take a position as assistant district attorney in Centre County. After having gained valuable experience in both roles, he founded Lisko & Associates in 1981.
Whether your legal need stems from a recent arrest or a personal injury caused by another person's negligent act, you can put your trust in our experienced attorney. Mr. Lisko will put his nearly 40 years of experience to work on your case.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
