SIMPLY THE BEST

I know how important reviews are. I know others experiences help at times of great uncertainty and emotional times. I can tell you that when I searched for attorneys at a trying time, I was exhausted and frustrated. The legal system is confusing and at times...never ending. Kristi jumped into my case... 2 weeks before a complicated trial and gave everything she had. I always knew I had the best representation. She is smart and compassionate. She is authentic. She is assertive and professional. I always knew where I stood. She is worth every penny and I will ONLY recommend her in the future for needs of my family and friends. I have NEVER seen an attorney work harder. The best decision I ever made in a messy situation...I am more than grateful for her hard work and dedication to my situation. She is simply the best. Period.

Kristi was God sent to our family1

Kristi was referred to me by a good friend when I was searching for the first step on what to do so that my husband could legally adopt my oldest son. My husband had been his Daddy for over 10 years and it seemed only natural to make it official. I asked questions and Kristi answered thoroughly. I ...cannot express my appreciation for all she did for us. As we are not from this state, we do not have family here, so when I asked her if there was any way we could get started on the paperwork when I could arrange for family to be in town as witnesses, she did not hesitate to accommodate my request. On a Saturday morning, on her day off, she met me and a whole big bunch of strangers at her office for the signing. Kristi was also very patient with us when we ran in to a few hiccups along the way. Those hiccups almost put everything on hold for us, but she was kind and generous to our family and even pushed for an emergency final hearing when my husband received orders to deploy at the last minute. We are forever in debt to her kindness and professionalism, and aside from what she may think, we can never forget her. Thank you, Kristi, for everything.

An attorney with a heart

I hired Kristi for a child custody case. She not only did everything she promised but she also did it with heart. I was very happy with the outcome of my case and even when the case was over she continued to be there to answer any questions I had and helped me make sure my child support was recieved... in a timely matter. She became not only my attorney but also a friend.

  • 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.
