Woman of Strength and Knowledge

In 2003, after years of living in an abusive marriage, my parents came to my rescue by picking me up and driving me to Kristin Adamson's office. I felt helpless and scared that day as I sat across from her. I recall her telling me that in all the years she'd been practicing law, I was one of the most... beaten down clients she had encountered. My parents and I began to tell Kristin my story and it became clear to us very quickly that I was in safe hands with a woman who was exceptional at her profession. I had not only an advocate in Kristin, but a strong, knowledgeable voice to lead me through a legal system that felt foreign and overwhelming to me. She immediately put me at ease and was right there beside me throughout the process of my divorce. She handled all of the complicated details ranging from custody disputes to child support and stood firm on what she deemed fair to me and my children. Throughout the hearings, mediation, and back and forth communications between lawyers, Kristin was very patient with me, always accessible and stood strong, helping me to find my strength as well. I respect Kristin's straightforwardness, she lets you know exactly what she thinks based on her knowledge and experience, wasting no time and expense. After my divorced was finalized, my children and I moved and with a fresh start, have had a happy life where I own my own successful business and my kids have thrived. I recently needed Kristin's help to enforce the settlement agreement she negotiated for me those 14 years ago and was impressed at how she remembered the details of my case and again Kristin jumped right in to help me; scheduling me quickly, returning emails promptly and has been completely accessible when I've had any questions. I have recommended Kristin through the years to friends and family and will continue to do so.

Amazing attorney

We hired Kristin for our case and we could not be more satisfied. From the first consultation and throughout our entire case, we were thrilled with our decision to retain her. She isn't the type that is going to sit back and tell you what you want to hear. On the other hand, she was not one of tho...se attorneys from big firms that sit back and wait to settle every case. She was engaged and demanding, but also a compassionate listener when things got emotional (which they almost always will in this type of law). I would absolutely recommend Kristin if you require representation in a family law matter. She listened to our needs, patiently and professionally. She was always available to us and if she wasn't, her paralegal was (who was also fantastic). There are plenty of attorneys in Tallahassee and if you don't care about the outcome of your case....perhaps choose one of them. However, if you care deeply about the outcome of your case, call Kristin Adamson.

Tough, Knowledgeable, Supportive

Kristin was recommended to me by another attorney to handle my very complicated divorce. I had previously divorced my wife and then made the mistake of remarrying her. This raised questions about exactly how long we had been married at the time of the second divorce, which had huge implications for ...the property settlement. Suffice it to say that Kristin successfully argued that, as far as the second divorce was concerned, I had been married only for the duration of the second marriage, NOT the first AND the second. She also gave me excellent assessments of my legal rights as well as of my practical situation as a divorcing husband.

Very satisfied

Divorce is difficult and Kristin was very understanding of how painful this was for me. She was very honest with me about the entire process. She was easy to reach by email and my calls to her office where responded to quickly. I met with her in her office multiple times and she was always on time an...d prepared. We were going to arbitration and I did not want to be in separate rooms as is normally done. Kristin supported me on this and arbitration went very well. I felt my final settlement was very fair. Thank you, Kristin.

Great Attorney

I used Kristin for my divorce and have used her since to modify my agreement a few times. She was professional and very easy to work with. I'd absolutely recommend her.
