Outstanding

Speaking from the perspective of having used 4 attorneys in my life, Christina is the most professional, straight forward, no nonsense attorney I have ever encountered. She never mislead me and made sure I understood every bridge we were crossing. She is responsive and timely. She is tough and fair. ...I HIGHLY recommend her. I consider her to be a blessing in mine and my son's life. I had a very difficult situation that required her attention for several different matters over a period of at least 3.5 years and she never once waivered in her dedication to my family and I.

Excellent

A friend recommended Christina to me after I was served papers from my ex suing me for custody of my son. Lost, desperate, hopeless, & afraid, I called Christina for a consultation. She was able to get me in THE FOLLOWING DAY although 2 other attorneys that I contacted could not even meet with me ...before my hearing. Christina patiently sat and listened to my entire story - which detailed 10years of family life and hardships - and was rather unorganized and probably seemed more like rambling than anything. But she found ways to relate to my situation & shared details of her own experiences. She took the time to empathize & listen & then explained my options carefully. i truly feel like Christina CARES about me, my son, my family, & the outcome of my case. There is no doubt in my mind that she will exhaust all legal avenues and pursue any viable options to help me... as if it were her own family. If you want an attorney who will take time for you, who will listen to your every concern, & who will fight for what is fair, she is an excellent choice. She may not be the most inexpensive attorney out there, but you get what you pay for... and when something as important as one's family is on the line, we don't want the cheapest or most inexperienced lawyer representing us. Christina is timely in responding to messages, emails, even texts. And has kept me updated and informed every step of the way. I am confidently recommending Christina for anyone who is facing legal issues in family law.

Wonderful Attorney

I hired Christina Woods to handle my divorce mainly because she had multiple offices which was convenient since I live in a different town than I work in. I met with her the first time just for a consultation and hired her immediately. She has been amazing every step of the way - clearly explaining... the process, updating me immediately of any changes, and her fees were better than any other quotes I had received. I already spoke with her about helping with another small legal filing issue following my divorce and have recommended her to any one I hear of looking for legal advice or counsel.

Our Lawyer

She was very prompt and diligent when working on our case. We always received answers to any questions we had in a timely manner. She also explained documents to us when we didn't quite understand some of the terms used and took her time with us till we understood. We are very pleased with the effort... made by her and her staff. We would use her again for our legal matters and we highly recommend her.
