Really Great Job

I got in contact with Christina initially for legal advice regarding immigration papers for family, we had another lawyer to start but he was unprofessional and unorganized, so we decided to seek help elsewhere. After speaking with Christina, we hired her to work our case. She was nothing but profess...ional, proficient, and easy to work with. She made one of the most annoying processes I've ever had to deal with much easier for me and my family and I am truly greatful for that.

The Absolute Best

I can't stress how grateful I am for Ms. Abraham's work. I sought Christina's help after a friend of mine referred her to me. She was the first lawyer I had ever needed, and the experience was very new to me so I was nervous. She walked me through every court preceding I had to go through and really ...made me feel comfortable from beginning to end. She made sure my case was handled with integrity and care, and I always felt valued as her client. I was always really impressed at how quickly she would get back to me and the way she kept me informed on my case. She's truly an honest, dependable, and trustworthy lawyer who works hard for her clients. While I hope I won't need a lawyer any time soon, the moment I do need representation, I'll be requesting Ms. Abraham's services again.

Amazing!

Christina was there for us throughout every step of the way and explained the whole process from beginning to end so we knew what to expect. She made us feel at ease about our case and we highly recommend her to all our family and friends.

Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
