I am an attorney with a focus on family law and general civil litigation. In this role I assist clients with dissolution of marriage, paternity, child support, modification and negotiating agreements. The newest addition to my area of practice is collaborative family law which helps families avoid litigation, minimize the legal expenses, and likely move forward in a more agreeable fashion than battling it out in a courtroom. I am very excited to grow this area of practice and help families resolve issues in a positive light.
While I enjoy all aspects of my job, I think my favorite part of a matter is working with the client to assess the issues of a case and find the most effective and economical means of accomplishing a resolution.
In 2012, I was honored in being awarded as a Legal Elite Up-and-Comer.
This past July, my husband and I summited Mt. Kilimanjaro along with two friends and the help of our guide, Wilfred Moshi, of Kili-Treks.
In 2006, as a member of Team In Training, I ran the Walt Disney World Marathon. Since that time I have run a half-marathon a year.

My case was not a typical open & close case, but she stayed persistent with the case & details when needed, and laid back & let's things, sort of settle down for a while when I needed it to. All in a...

Not only a good lawyer but a good person
My ex-wife refused to allow me to have any contact with my children. After many heartbroken and devastating years of representing myself and getting nowhere, in utter desperation, I realized I needed a lawyer.

Christina, highly recommended.
Christina took my ex to court more than once to force him to sell joint property from a divorce. She is dedicated to the task. She watched out for me to make sure I didn’t get screwed by him. I recommend her highly. Lee Ann
