Posted by Michael | April 16, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Insurance

Wicked smart and responsive

Kristin defended my company in a case involving an alleged 18 wheeler accident where the plaintiff provided multiple accounts of what happened. The case was transferred to Kristin after the first defense attorney recommended settling. Kristin was able to prove our driver had no fault and obtained a f...ull dismissal of all claims with prejudice within eight months of taking the case over saving my company a claim against its million dollar policy. Kristin is passionate about her work and communicated with me every step of the way. I hope my company never gets sued again but if it does I'm hiring Kristin.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. 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.
