Great service & good end result

Christi Schofield was my lawyer in November of 2019. I had a wonderful experience with her, and for a great price. She accomplished to get everything I asked for done, she got my possession charge taken off and when the prosecutor was trying to give me a lengthy list of community service, classes, fi...nes, probation etc... she got that taken down to just a year of unsupervised probation which was exactly what I was hoping for. She quickly replies to emails with any of your questions, Is great at explaining things and fighting on behalf of you. I highly recommend having her as your lawyer!

Excellent attorney

I recently hired Christi to handle a drug charge for me. I was very overwhelmed by the idea of searching for and hiring an attorney and didn’t know what to expect. Christi was very kind, intelligent, and broke down legal concepts in a clear and straightforward way. I was very happy I hired Christi in...stead of pleading guilty. I’d definitely hire her again.
