Awesome Attorney!!!!
I can't thank Charlotte Christian enough for helping me at the worst time of my life. Christian fought hard and never gave up on my case. She fought for me and my kids till the end!! As a single mom I have had days my spirit was down, but will never forget the day she showed up at my work to check up on me and my kids. I don't know if she knows, but that day was the day she gave me back the hope and strength to keep fighting. Not only is she an awesome attorney but she has an amazing heart!! Thank you Charlotte Christian for fighting for me and my kids I could not have gotten through this without you!!!

Thanks Charlotte!
This was my first experience with the court system or an attorney. As a father going for custody, the odds were stacked against me, but in the end I received full custody and a lot more. Clearly I owe it all to Charlotte and her team, I am truly grateful to have had them help me through the divorce process.

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 Facebook 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!

Top Notch
We were looking for a solid, effective, winning lawyer, Charlotte is it. Our case was difficult, a long-shot really, and we braced ourselves for the worst case scenario. Well, what we got, thanks to Charlotte, was the BEST case scenario. She knows the system, is smart, tough yet compassionate and always made us feel like we were in good hands. She was right. Thanks Charlotte!

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.

Charlotte Christian won custody of my son over my Grandson
We thought we would never see our grandson again because his mother divorced our son and wanted to move to Tennessee. We hired Ms. Christian with the hopes that she could get us the best visitation possible. She went above our expectations and won custody for the father. I have sent many people to her.
