Highly Recommend Child Custody

We contacted and met with Charlotte as our son's custody case for his young daughter was well into a year of working with another lawyer. Although the other lawyer was familiar and skilled in custody case experience he WAS NOT familiar with the protocol of introducing social media evidence such as Fa...cebook into court. Immediately Charlotte gave us a sense of "this is what we do"...."we got this" kind of attitude. Our son's case was long and complicated with many twists and turns. It took two years total to go to court. It was "continued" so many times our emotions were frayed. Charlotte and one of her excellent staff attorneys - Emily Randolph - were excellent. Both were quick to respond to our many questions, evidence, and e-mails. During court Charlotte was prepared, cool, collected, and reassuring to us. No attorney truly knows nor can they guarantee any particular outcome of a custody case. Charlotte did an excellent job of preparing us as our emotions rose during and after the court case was presented to the Judge. Our outcome was more than we could have expected. Our son received a ruling of Sole Physical Custody and Joint Legal Custody of his 2 year old daughter. We feel blessed we had Charlotte on our side. We also appreciated her experience and tedious treatment of testimony during court. Thank you Charlotte. We would highly recommend you and your services to other individuals in need of representation in a child custody case!

Pevious client is completely satisfied with attorney's services.

Ms. Christian represented me in a recent divorce case; I was completely satisfied with her services. She addressed the whole process with efficiency and professionalism. She also assisted me with the difficult task of getting my life back in order after the divorce.
