Modification of the Parent/Child Relationship from my Previous Orders

I consulted with 5 different attorneys through out the course of my issue. I sought out Christina due to her support of empathy, personally relating to my current issue and made me feel like a human and took the matter at hand serious. Regarding communication, always responded in a timely manner.... Very supportive (even if I was having a melt down due to rising issues regarding my reasoning for seeking legal guidance) Paid attention to detail and always looked at both sides of the case in support of the best interest of my child. Office staff was very caring and kind! Excited my expectations and helped me get the best out come for my child.

Professional services

My case was thought to be an easy solution. However the defendant does not want to play by the rules. Christina has gone above and beyond to get the defendant to come to the table and sort things out, but she refuses to. Christina has made sure that when the defendant don't play nice that she is held... acciuntable and held in contempt of court and she is sent to jail on large bonds.

Christina-2 Them-0

I've been involved with Ms. Woods for legal representation on two separate occasions and both times she protected the interests of her client. I was involved in a divorce proceeding and Ms. Woods represented my spouse, while I used an attorney who seemed competent enough and had been recommended to... me. I only spoke to my attorney a few times on the phone and only saw him for the first time right before the hearing. We met prior to seeing the judge and Ms. Woods devastated my attorney. I left the courthouse with barely the shirt on my back. When my wife and I later reconciled, I learned just how effective Christina had been in her defense. More recently, my wife and I were involved in another legal issue and there was no doubt that we would hire Ms. Woods to represent us. The matter was resolved in our favor and again demonstrated her strong commitment to our situation. The next time we need an attorney, our first call will be to Christina Woods.

Only if you want top notch!

Ms. Woods was hands down the best decision I made regarding my case. Anytime I needed something - she was always right there. Even after our case was settled, Ms. Woods continued to eagerly answer all of my questions and concerns. Conflicts resulting in legal representation can become financially tro...ubling at times. Ms. Woods was always understanding of the financial strain. If ever placed in a legal situation again - Ms. Woods will be my first choice.
