Not experienced enough in divorce
Kristin is not experienced enough in divorce cases. She is extremely pleasant and easy to deal with, but her advice was not very forthcoming. After a few months of paperwork I realized I’ve chosen the wrong attorney.
Kristin Padowitz is an aggressive, proven, courtroom litigator with over 75 Jury Trials under her belt in the last 20 years. This battle-hardened experience is light years advanced then most other trial lawyers. If the client is emotionally confused and constantly changing their goals, as was the case here, and does not consider the legal strategy advised by the experienced lawyer, then dissatisfaction is the end result.
