Child support/custody case

Christa was always there for me... has been for 3.5 years. She continutes to handle my case in MI even though we live in WA. She always gives honest advice and keeps me informed making the best possible decisions for my little girl and me.

Industrious, Compassionate, Skillful Attorney

Christa was a very compassionate and caring attorney who was extremely helpful and knowledgeable with our needs. She will also be utilized in the near future to handle the probate of a family members will. I would highly recommend Christa to anyone needing a knowledgeable, compasionate attorney... to handle their particular needs.

recommend

She was always on top of my case. She didn't pad things to get my business, but gave me the straight hard facts. I respect this. She was kind without being patronizing. She listened to what I wanted from the case and not what was common place to do. I have felt so positive about her commitment to... me and what she did for me I have recommended her to my friends and family. I could not have survived my divorce without her voice of reason and stability.

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
