Christine is wonderful
Christine was able to identify my needs shortly after we met. She guided me with great results. I have recommended her already. She did a great job.

Terrific representation!
Ms. Gale was an excellent attorney. She was very knowledgeable and gave me good insight into the issues at hand. She was very professional in court and was able to think quickly during trial to ask all the right questions. I would highly recommend her!

Christine Gale - Review
If you are reading this post, unfortunately you are probably in an undesirable situation and in need of an attorney. For many of us the court system and all that entails with it, is unfamiliar territory. It can be quite daunting or even a bit intimidating for anyone trying to address a legal issue.
My personal legal issue was my divorce (with a child involved). My attorney was Mrs. Christine Gale. Attorneys tend to have a bad reputation and trust me I spent enough time in the court room to understand why. However, Mrs. Gale in my strongest opinion is an exception to the negative stigma that shadows her career field. She recognizes that something whether it is physical, emotional, or mental got you to this point; and to the best of her ability she will get you through it as expeditiously as possible.
If you want someone with integrity, a tenacious advocate, and will handle your case as amicable as possible; I highly recommend Mrs. Gale. She is very passionate in what she does; which I believe drives her motivation to positively represent her clients.
Best of luck,

You're in excellent hands.
Christine was very compassionate towards me while representing me with my divorce. She was non judgemental and made sure I knew what my options were in accordance with the law. She was readily available when I needed her and while helping me cope with all of the difficult emotions of the process, she was also quick to give me a reality check when I needed it. She made a very difficult situation a little easier to deal with because her kindness went above and beyond what I expected. It wasn't about money for her- it was about what was best for me and my child. You're in excellent care with Christine. I've already recommended her to several people going through similar situations. You won't find a better attorney.

The Best!
Christine Gale really did a great job on my divorce. She put me at ease right away and really took the time to explain all the legal terms. I felt comfortable asking questions and she always made sure I knew exactly what was happening in my case and what the next steps were. She really cares about her clients and that means a lot! She really knows the law and makes sure you understand too.
