Dedicated, Detail-Oriented, and Truly Advocates for Her Clients

I am extremely grateful for the representation I received from Attorney Tafera. From the very beginning, she genuinely listened to my concerns, took the time to understand my situation, and made sure my needs were heard and addressed. She paid close attention to every detail and thoroughly reviewed... all relevant information, using every piece of evidence available to advocate for me effectively. Throughout my custody case, she was professional, honest, and transparent about the process and expectations. She never made empty promises and consistently communicated with integrity. In the courtroom, her reputation and credibility were evident she is well respected and clearly prepared, which made a significant difference in my case. She truly fought for me and my children’s, and I always felt supported and confident knowing she was advocating on my behalf. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dedicated, knowledgeable, and trustworthy custody attorney. She’s very gentle and caring toward me but in the court room, she’s ready to go to war! I’ve had several lawyer before her and she’s by far the best!

Awesome Attorney

My husband was deploying to Afghanistan and we were selling our home at the same time. With him being out of the country he would not be there when we sold our home. We were able to reach out to Attorney Tefera to obtain a Power of Attorney so that we would have no issues when the house sold. She was... wonderful to us and we will be using her again for future needs.

Got custody of my babies with her help

Special thanks to Jessica and Christy her team they were always available to answer my millions of questions I had. Chrissy was fully prepared when we went to court and the judge granted full custody to me.

Professional and Competent

Ms. Tefera handled my divorce. Initially, I hired another lawyer who never returned my calls or responded to my emails. This went on for months until I consulted with Ms. Tefera. We discovered that my case was soon going to be closed due to this lawyer not doing any work on it. Obtaining Ms. Tefe...ra as my lawyer was the best decision I could have made. She and her staff made the process smooth, and they were always available to answer any questions or concerns I had. My divorce was finalized within a short period of time, and for this I am very grateful!

Best Divorce Attorney

Chrissy was beyond amazing in my divorce case. I had never hired a lawyer before and had no idea what to expect. I was told that divorce attorneys only cared about money not the clients personally. Well let me tell you that they were completely wrong when it came to Chrissy! She was so caring and und...erstanding of my situation. I felt like she really cared about me and wanted me to be happy with the outcome. To top it off, she was so knowledgeable of the courts and how they work. While she was so sweet to me , she was tough in court. It wasn't an ideal situation but I'm so happy that I had Chrissy fighting for me every step of the way.
