By far one of the best!
We hired Christy for my 18 yr old sons felony charge. Christy had all charges dropped! She was quick with communication and I felt as if she truly cared about my son. Thanks!

She's amazing!
Christy got my case dismissed. She worked hard to answer all my questions, and was always helpful and respectful to me. She would meet with me whenever I needed to, and communication was always open. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone and everyone I know. She really is great!
