I focus exclusively on family law matters, including divorces and custody/parenting time actions. I have 22 years of experience as an attorney, and have been practicing family law exclusively for the past 18 years. During that time, I have seen many changes in our family courts, particularly in the way family cases are handled by the Court system. In my practice, I use my years of experience and knowledge of the law to guide my clients towards the best possible outcome in their case. I believe in trying to make the process easier for my clients by explaining their legal rights and options, and providing them with an accurate portrayal of what might occur in their case if we proceed through the court system (litigation) or proceed through various settlement processes (mediation, early neutral evaluation, etc.). I would describe my "practice style" as trying to resolve cases amicably while being a strong advocate for my client and providing my client with knowledgeable advice about the legal process.
My practice areas include: complex contested divorces, uncontested divorces, establishment and modification of child custody, establishment and modification of child support, paternity, post-decree modifications of spousal maintenance, immigration issues involved in the divorce process (I-864 Affidavits of Support), preparation of Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDRO's), orders for protection (domestic abuse), harassment restraining orders, step-parent adoption, third-party custody actions, grandparent visitation, and preparation and review of prenuptial (antenuptial) agreements.

Bitter Custody Battle
Kristin was my 3rd and final lawyer used in my divorce process that took over 2 years with child custody issues. We spent 3 days in trial. Kristin was calm, respectable and caring with regards to myself and my children. At times I was angry and wanted to lash out, Kristin took the time to explain ...

Very Helpful
As someone who's never been involved with anything court related, Kristin was a great help. She explained every step of the process to me, sometimes several times. My case was able to be resolved in mediation instead of having to go to court. I am very thankful she was there to walk me through such a...

Kristin is an exceptional attorney. She gave me realistic exceptions and timelines. She never played into emotion and was always focused on the matters at hand.
