This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Missing in Action

Gave her 2, just to be little fair. She was professional, kind, and approachable during our 1st meeting. However, something happened personally on her, as she called me during Summer 2015 explaining the reason for her not responding back was because of medical that is too personal for me to share, ...so I feel bad seeing negative comments about her, but I don't know the entire history and story of her other client's situations. I just realized, getting back on her page seems like I am not alone having this issue about her. I hope Atty. Christina will be better...

Disappearing act

I hired this lawyer to obtain a work visa and green card back in Oct 2014. I heard from her around December 2014 in an email, then not again till the beginning of April 2015. I sent her countless emails to all three of her emails, I phoned and left message after message on her cel and office phone, ...I sent text after text. I still have not heard from her. I have not received a single invoice or receipt outlining the work, if any, that she's done. This lawyer has taken my money and disappeared.

Responsive, Honest & Trustworthy Attorney. Would Absolutely Hire Again.

I recently received a speeding ticket while passing through a small county, in which Christina Wanies-Guirgis got my case dismissed. She kept me informed throughout the process and diligently communicated with the court on my behalf. The details of my ticket were a bit difficult, but Mrs. Wanies-Guir...gis attentively worked on (and won!) my case. I highly recommend Mrs. Wanies-Guirgis as she is an honest and reliable attorney! Needless to say, I will definitely be returning for any future legal counsel.
