This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

PersonaI Injury

Christine Klein was the only attorney who would take my case. She made sure I understood every step of the process and kept me abreast of all and any new developments. When I had doubts she was confident and made me feel confident that a resolution would come soon. She never mislead me or gave me inc...orrect information. She was extremely honest even when I was in the wrong. I could call or email her at any time and she would get right back to me. She made me feel like i was her only client. I was extremely pleased to have her as my attorney and would recommend her to family and friends.

Professional, Responsive, and Caring

Christine was wonderfully responsive when I asked her to take over when my lawyer was no longer able to handle my closing. It was a complex affair that included attention to an estate that was being handled concurrently. She kept me abreast of what she was doing, was persistent in trying to reach som...e of the other players that were not always reliable in responding and overall made me feel taken care of. She has my complete trust and I look forward to completing my estate documents with her next.

Helped me win my child custody case

Christine was the only lawyer who took my call on the spot and worked with me and gave me advice regarding my child custody case. For that, I hired her and she has fought for me for a year and got me my daughter back. She worked with me and most importantly, she believed in what I was fighting for ...and never gave up. She was honest about everything and provided me with all the resources I needed to have a successful outcome. She provides a great personal touch to the service she gives you making you feel important and I strongly recommend her because she's simply amazing!

Knowledgeable and Informative

I needed my will to be consistent with the terms of my divorce agreement. Christine clearly explained which assets were to be passed along via the will and which assets were to be passed along by law. She was able to help me understand the purpose of a living will and health care proxy so that decisi...ons will be made by the person I choose in case I am unable to. She took time to discuss the issues I was concerned about and to make me aware of decisions I should make that I did not know about.
