First-Rate Legal Assistance

I was in good hands all the way with Christine in my injury liability situation. Her extensive medical and legal expertise were invaluable, and she gave sound advice with compassion and fair-mindedness. Supremely professional and above-board, diligent and meticulous, she is also very pleasant to work... with.

Exemplary attorney you can trust

Christine's approach backed by 25+ years of nursing experience made my situation feel less tense and more manageable. She has managed to successfully resolve my issue without formal hearing with NH Board of Nursing. Attorney Christine's advice was exemplary and I sincerely recommend her for your co...nsideration.

Great experience

I reached out to Christine to discuss an accident I was in. I didn't have any experience in these types of situations and relied on Christine to help guide me. I found Christine to be very responsive and extremely knowledgeable. She assisted me through all the different processes and steps that neede...d to be complete. I feel she represented my best interest.

Excellent service

I had been in an accident & Christine did everything in her power to assist me in getting a settlement to pay my medical bills & other liens that came up due to being out of work over a year & needing 2 surgeries. She helped make sure I understood everything knowing I had never been involved in anyth...ing like this before. She was fantastic & I'd recommend her to anyone.

Medical case

My son suffered burns to his face, neck and arms from a commercial log that blew up in the fireplace. Christine was able to help my son receive a settlement which helped tremendously with his medical bills and recovery.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
