Attention to detail.
Christine did an amazing job with my case. It was a challenging matter that required creative solutions, and she had the experience and attention to detail to get the outcome I needed.

Never Again
Christine was very helpful and attentive until she received my retainer, then things fell apart. She was repeatedly unprepared for our meetings and offered zero advice on how to negotiate a settlement with my ex. Basically she filed paperwork and I was on my own for the rest. On our final court date ...

Replied last January 23, 2020I am sorry that you are dissatisfied with my legal services, but your experience does not reflect my procedure of practicing law. First, I start with a retainer, specifically discussed prior to any representation. I offer a free phone consultation and one office consultation for a flat $75 fee. If you are dissatisfied with my representation, you may contact me 24/7 on text, email, or phone call to address your concern. Second, I personally compose every divorce decree. I am very particular with my client's decree as I believe in being extremely thorough to help my clients avoid future litigation. I would NEVER finalize a divorce decree without having the decree at least a week prior to the final hearing and discussing the document with my client either in a phone or office consultation (whichever works best for the client). Therefore, I have NEVER been to a final hearing without reading a proposed decree. Feel free to call my office to discuss a resolution. I strive to have happy and well informed clients.
