About Kristine

Learn Kristine’s areas of practice.

After graduation from the New England School of Law, magna cum laude, I clerked for a year with the Massachusetts Superior Court, and then joined the Suffolk County District Attorney's Office as an Assistant District Attorney primarily in the Appellate Unit. During my four year tenure at the District Attorney's Office, I argued more than 60 cases before the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court and Massachusetts Appeals Court. I then spent two years as agency counsel for the Massachusetts Parole Board where I specilaized in civil litigation and employment law. I have been a member of the Massachusetts Bar since 1995 and the Ohio Bar since 2014. Since becoming licensed in Ohio, I have worked in a general practice, but primarily in the areas of family law, litigation and estate planning.

I opened my own firm, Tammaro Law LLC in November 2016. I pride myself on the individual attention I provide to my clients with my client first promise and commitment to providing top quality legal services.

Outstanding Integrity
Kristine was able to resolve a settlement in 10 short weeks compared to what a so called “top attorney” from Dayton couldn’t do in 8 months that I discharged from my case. Her communication is above exceptional and she took the time to explain the processes and her experiences in the Warren county court systems. She is not interested in dragging anything out or draining your accounts. A truly good person who does her job with top notch service.

Hire her! You will not be disappointed!
I hired Kristine a little over two years ago after firing an attorney who had actively made a complete disaster out of my case. Kristine instantly got to work on cleaning up the mess I was left with……and to date, she is still working as ferociously as she began. I cannot say enough good things about Kristine but will attempt to do so here. Communication – Kristine is SO on top of communication, and not just with me, but with anything that comes her way about my case. She is constantly checking the court docket and has even relayed information about other cases that I have been dragged into before I even knew it. She copies me on all correspondence about my case to GALS, attorney’s, mediators, and even court administrators. I am never left in the dark about my case with Kristine. There are no surprises when I head to a hearing or trial. She makes no decisions without my input. Any meeting that occurred in chambers or on conference calls, she will immediately relay all that was discussed while I was not present. There have been times during after-hours or on weekends and even holidays where I have needed Kristine, and she has never turned me away. Motions – Kristine is a wordsmith. She writes excellent motions and has a knack for cleverly delivering just what I need conveyed. She never submits or files anything without my approval. Even if it drives her nuts (which she never lets on to)…..she allows me change the motions until I am fully satisfied. She never gives me grief about it, even if I want to edit it five times. She is patient and truly understands that this is my life, and these things are important to me. Conduct in trails or at hearings – Kristine is fantastic on her feet. I recently had a VERY important hearing that was granted by the skin of our teeth. At the end of the hearing the Judge asked Kristine and the opposing attorney if they would like to close with a statement. Kristine had nothing written. She spoke completely from her heart and head about my case. Her knowledge of the case was so clear that everything she was saying came out natural and genuine. She knocked it out of the park for me at that hearing, and I am sure that her closing words helped to solidify the favorable outcome that I received after that hearing. Knowledge of your case – I am continuously impressed with Kristine’s innate ability to retain information about my case. This is such a rare quality in an attorney. Most attorney’s treat you like you are just one of hundreds of clients and they can’t recall anything about your case without referencing an email or note. Not Kristine, she has it all right in her head and at times she has even reminded ME of things about my case that I had forgotten. It’s incredibly helpful to have an attorney who absorbs information about your case, especially when it comes to cross examining witnesses! Going to bat – She is no doubt a feisty Italian from Boston, need I say more? In my case, my ex is a terror. It feels good to have Kristine observe that and truly understand the crux of who is the cause of most of our issues, and therefore is not afraid to stand up for me, or “go to combat” with my ex on the stand when he is being pompous and impossible. General care – I went through one of the toughest years of my life. It is not an exaggeration when I say that I could not have made it through without Kristine. She did everything in her power for me when I was at my lowest points in this case. She has gotten to know my family. She believes in me; she believes in my case. Even when I had just had my baby and an important court date was coming up, she came to my home for a meeting, so I didn’t have to find childcare and leave my newborn. She has genuine empathy when things are bad and is right there to rejoice with you when things are good. Kristine is not just my attorney; she has become my friend. Just hire her. I promise you will not be disappointed in her abilities to fight for you.

Great experience
I fully retained Attorney Tammaro to represent me during my marriage dissolution case. She was very responsive, easily accessible, timely, and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. Even during the consultation phase (before I retained her), she was extremely forthcoming with knowledge that educated me about the legal process and the next steps that I needed to take. She is detailed and direct, which I very much appreciated. She is also extremely flexible and accommodating to resolve any scheduling conflicts. I definitely recommend Attorney Tammaro whether you're looking for consultation or full representation.

Highly recommend!
Kristine was there when I needed her, understood the stress of the situation and was supportive of my desired approach while reminding me not to be a pushover. She's incredibly responsive, and completely transparent about the process and costs. She made great recommendations all along the way. She takes her job seriously and doesn't believe divorce has to be ugly. I work with a lot of professionals in my life and found Kristine to be the best combination of professionalism and kindness, which was exactly what I needed. Thank you so much Kristine! I cant say enough how much I appreciate you!

Great advocate
Kristine offered her legal advice as well as professional emotional support during a difficult period. She was always prepared for court hearings and incredibly prompt at responding to all of my questions. She is intelligent, articulate, and professional. Having an advocate like her during that time made a world of difference.

A+ Representation
Kristine was there every step of the way in navigating my divorce. Through the good times and bad times, Kristine was always available and quick to respond when something urgent came up. I spoke with many local attorneys before choosing Kristine. I encourage anyone to do their homework before choosing someone. But you will quickly find that Kristine is the only one who will make you and your situation a priority. Very happy with the outcome we achieved. She always worked toward a solution that put my son and me first. You couldn't ask for more. I would recommend Kristine to anyone seeking a divorce, especially with children.

Excellent Family Lawyer
I've been through a contentious divorce and multiple followup court motions brought by my ex wife, mostly regarding child custody issues. I've also been through several attorneys. Kristine was by far the best, very knowledgeable and a true advocate. It seemed like some of my pervious attorneys were intimidated by some Hamilton County magistrates, and did not advocate strongly for fear of damaging their own image with the court. I felt that Kristine truly advocated for me.

Excellent communication and representation
Ms. Tammaro was retained to handle a civil matter for me. I found her communication to be excellent and respectful. Her representation was top notch and she kept my best interest in mind throughout the process. Her billing process was fair and transparent. I highly recommend Ms. Tammaro and she will be the first attorney I call if I am in need of counsel in the future. Thank you!

Amazing lawyer
Kristine was truly amazing from day one. She was recommended to me by a friend and we have both recommended her to others that love her as well! She was quick to respond to any of my calls, texts or emails and I never felt that I was bothering her. She was knowledgeable about the divorce laws of our specific county. She knew all of my rights and several times, she corrected the other lawyer with his errors. Her expert and professional guidance always focused on what was best for my family and not her bottom line. She understood that some my decisions were emotionally driven and she helped guide me towards a more objective outcome while being understanding and sympathetic. She was reasonably priced and never "nickel and dimed" me through the process. I would 100% recommend her to anyone needing a lawyer.

Juvenile court
My husband and I have been fighting for custody of his son for five years. When meeting with Christine we were faced with visitation from the child’s mother the father has had custody at this point walking in to visitation in juvenile court where we were told the first time ever going there that we had no chance of getting the visitation schedule we wanted however when meeting with Christine and having her as our attorney when we walked out of visitation quart we walked out with everything we had ask for and wanted I would highly recommend Christine she is a very honest person and very compassionate about what she does! She takes her clients wants and needs into consideration as well. If i ever need an attorney again it will definitely be Kristine !

An outstanding legal resource
I had no real experience with legal matters when I met with Kristine about my marriage dissolution. I was quickly put at ease by how thorough Kristine is. Through the process I also came to appreciate the timely updates and statuses I received. Since the court system is notoriously slow, I was glad that I never had to ask for an update. I was very happy with Kristine and would recommend her to anyone in a similar situation.

Truly Exceptional
Kristine Tammaro handled my divorce and she was nothing short of exceptional. I had multiple issues with a less than responsive spouse. Kristine's advice navigating the process was always on point. Her work was responsive and very thorough. When we were actually in court the magistrate even commented on the agreement that Kristine had written. The magistrate called it the most thorough and complete agreement that she had seen. Additionally, after the divorce there was on piece that my ex still had to sign. She was refusing out of spite. It was going to require me to take her back for "contempt of court." But Kristine had the foresight to include a clause that if the ex refused to sign we could complete the transfer without her signature. This saved me a great deal of time and money. I could not have been better represented. Also her billing practices were very fair. I've hired attorneys in the past and there is always a question about billable hours spent. This was never a question with Kristine. I saved thousands of dollars from what other attorneys I consulted with expected to bill me.

Kristine Tammaro a top end lawyer
Kristine Tammaro did a fantastic job representing me in a very contentious divorce. Kristine listen to me and my end game with the divorce, she helped me pull together the needed documentation to prove my case in court. In the end, we went to ENE and I won my case because all the documentation I needed to prove my side of the case was put together well by Kristine. The Magistrate sided with me on the debt and the equity I should get paid out of the house, and visitation with my kids. Kristine is a straight up no BS lawyer who will tell you the likely outcome of your case base on you giving her all the facts and documentation for the case. I highly recommend any one to hire Kristine as a lawyer for their divorce, I also recommend that she take you through ENE which will save you a lot of money from a court battle. She also fights for good fathers.

Knowledgeable, friendly, skilled
I had a very good experience with Kristine. She drafted some documents to have my custody and child support terms changed, and was very knowledgeable about the processes in different countries and all of the requirements. From start to finish she handled everything smoothly and professionally.

Best lawyer for complicated divorce!
Kristine took on my divorce/ custody case almost a year after filing due to issues with my prior attorney. She knew it was going to be time consuming and difficult. She stood by me every step of the way and kept me in the loop in regards to any communication with the other side. Kristine was very easy to get in touch with and easy to talk to. She fought for me and my daughter. She never pushed me to settle or agree to anything I wasn't comfortable with. In the end she got me what I originally wanted. I very much appreciate Kristine agreeing to work with me! I was so glad to have her by my side!

Hire Kristine Tammaro!
Having Kristine during my divorce process was comparable to having a close first cousin by my side! She is very quick to respond back to her client and the opposing attorney. She kept the process moving, instead of having it drag out. Any questions I had she either had the answers or found them for me. Divorce is a very stressful thing to go through and I truly appreciated having her on my side! I even hired her to take care of my Will and other legal matters. Hire Kristine and look forward to your new future when it's all over with! Thank you Kristine!!!!

Warren County Dissolution
Kristine worked closely with me to prepare all the necessary documents for the Dissolution. She was thorough and put me at ease multiple times. She handled all the interaction with the courts, and the judge even commented that she always 'gets good grades' from the compliance department.
