Posted by Kaitlyn | October 03, 2018 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Incredible attorney, even better person.

I don’t even know where to begin with my review. In one of the worst situations of my life, Kristina was there for me in more ways than one. In January of 2018, I was charged with DWI and open container. I moved to Florida shortly afterwards, but still was tied up in Brazoria county with this case.... Because I lived so far away, Kristina did my initial consultation via phone so I wouldn’t have to make an unnecessary trip back to Texas. She was extremely thorough and even genuine— which can sometimes be hard to establish over phone. She assured me that she would be with me every step of the way, and she absolutely was. When we sat down to review the discovery, she was more than just my lawyer, she was a friend. The whole time, I can sum it up in one way. She cares. My case was resolved in less than 10 months of the initial charge, which is no small feat. My criminal DWI charge was draped to reckless driving, and there will be nothing on my record to indicate that I’ve ever been charged with one. This means so much for me and my future, and I don’t even know how to express my gratitude. I appreciate how hard she fought for me, and her kindness through it all. If you’re facing a similar predicament, I strongly recommend Kristina and the offices of Steve Gonzales. They do not disappoint.

Awesome lawyer

I was charged with my 2nd DWI and facing jail time. From my first consultation with Ms. King she told me she would fight for NO JAIL and NO PROBATION only a fine. After 2 months of negotiating with the prosecutor and me following Ms. Kind guidelines we were able to reach a very favorable decision in ...my case of NO JAIL and NO PROBATION like she originally said. Her office kept in contact with me from the beginning to the end of my case and kept me informed with what was going on. Overall I am beyond happy with my verdict and encourage others to use Ms. King council for legal help. Thanks for your help!

Amazing Super Lawyer! Highly Recommended

Kristina King (KK) is an amazing super lawyer, she stood by my side, worked long hours with my case, communicated and updated me consistently. KK also believed in me and fought for my rights. There’s no limit when it come to her backing you up. And I thank you so much for everything you did. I highly... recommend KK to anyone, because with her, you’re in good hands. I also wanna thank her staff for all the hard work they put in for all 3 of my cases. With 2 cases being dismissed and one Motion - Directed Verdict Case Won!! It takes a Super Lawyer to pull that off!! “Thank You KK, My Good Freind”

Amazing woman! Such a sweetheart and hard worker!

Kristina did a fantastic job! She worked many hours and did the research for my case. Without her hard work I wouldn’t have gotten the results we wanted for my case. Also the sweetest woman around who always had a smile. I would recommend her to everyone I know! /

She should be in the SUPER Lawyer class

I just had my day in court for my DWI offense and am very very pleased with the outcome. I was represented by Steven Gonzales, and the wonderful nice people in his law office. Although Mr. Gonzales dealt the finally blow to get my charges to a much lower offense, it was obvious that the lawyer Krist...ina King did a lot of the work to prepare for my case. She also did an excellent job of representing me at my ALR hearing and court reset and explaining to me all I had to do. I have to admit and since I have never been in court, that I did not realize how much work is involve in representing someone in court. Watching Kristina come into the court room and prepare everyone for their cases by dealing with the DAs and others and all the paperwork (must be a lot because the folders were thick) was really amazing. Watching both Mrs. King and Mr. Gonzales do their work in court made me felt like I had indeed the best representatives in that room. Also, when Kristina went over my case weeks before court, I could tell she was analyzing anything and everything that would possible help me with the irresponsible mistake that I made. With her on my team and the entire Steve Gonzales office, I believe that I got a real bargain on the cost of my lawyer fees. Thanks bunches Kristina for all your hard work and best wishes for you in the future. If that is being a judge, you get my vote!!!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"In any field, one needs a bona fide survivor in their corner that is willing to lead from the front, the interior or the rear at any given moment. Kristina is not only a survivor but a proven leader. She understands the difference between Integrity and Loyalty. She sifts through the details of her client's case to identify and expose the lack of integrity of the opposition's case. Need to mention she is a scrapper, so don't mistake her kindness for weakness."
