About Kristi
Biography
I am an experienced commercial litigator, employment counselor and certified compliance and ethics professional. I represent clients in state and federal court proceedings, and administrative hearings. I also counsel clients on employment and general business matters, draft contracts, and conduct internal investigations of workplace misconduct.
My clients include small, mid-size and large businesses, as well as corporate executives. My firm provides the same high quality legal services as lawyers at a large law firm, but at more economical hourly rates. All of our partners previously worked for a large law firm before starting Chen Nelson Roberts Ltd.
