Kristy L Hanson

Two years ago, I scheduled a consultation with Kristy. I was contemplating divorce, sadly, because my husband was addicted to pornography and drugs. His personality was completely altered because of the addictions. He no longer wanted to be a support to our family financially or emotionally. My c...hildren were confronted by unwanted images when they passed by his computer, and his lack of empathy was heartbreaking. I had tried for 8 years to work things out and see some kind of remorse or change, but when counseling and pleas of change made no difference, I went to talk to Kristy. She had been recommended to me by a realtor I was working with, but I basically knew nothing about her. I wasn't sure whether to pursue divorce or not, but even though there was no promise on my part of hiring her, she attentively listened, took careful notes and told me to come back in two weeks if things looked like I had no other option. I made a second appointment, hoping things would improve during that time. Before the two weeks were up, almost on Valentine's Day, my husband served me with divorce papers. I was devastated and scared and immediately called Kristy not knowing what to do. She was very kind, calmed me and said she would gladly help me. I have not only had the unique opportunity of having an attorney that was highly skilled in her knowledge of the law, but have gained a kind and wise friend who genuinely cared about me and my future. During the past two years, she has worked tirelessly on my case, trying to comfort me and give me hope when I felt there was none. She has listened, not only to my legal concerns, but she has given me invaluable service and advice for my future, the future of my children, and constant help and assistance. No matter when I texted her or emailed her, she responded with kindness and help regarding my situation. I got a little (well, maybe a lot) crazy at times worrying over many of the issues I was facing for the future. It was a complicated case--one that most attorneys would have not taken, much less embraced with the ability and grace that she has shown me over the last two years. She fought for me on every front, calmed me, advised me, and been there for me above and beyond what most friends would have done, much less, an attorney. We were in several mediations, the last one lasted over 15 hours. She reassured me, fed me, walked and talked with me, and had my interests at the forefront of the entire process, never failing to give me her complete and professional attention and care. I not only gained a friend I dearly love, but I had the best legal advice and guidance that I could have ever hoped for. She is the best of the best! My life is better, not only because of the legal help, but because of her advice and friendship, concern for my children, animals, extended family, etc. I will forever be grateful for having had her expertise and experience to guide me. No divorce is ever going to go perfectly since there are other parties involved. No one ever wants to have their family or properties divided, but if there is no other option, Kristy will be there to guide and help and put your life back together. She provided me with hope and help when I thought there was none and was there by my side every step of the way. I could not more highly recommend an attorney if you need help making decisions that are heartbreaking and wanting the best legal, professional, and personal outcome possible than Kristy Hansen. She will always have my most grateful thanks and love for the blessing she has been in my life. She is the best of the best!!

I hired Kristy to help protect my children from my ex husband, and his wife. Yes fighting your ex-spouse and his wife is expensive. But every single penny of debt I own now was worth it, because when it comes to protecting your children from a pedophile there is no monetary limit. Kristy made it pos...sible for me to protect my kids which should be every mothers #1 priority. Kristy fights so hard for her clients. I was always able to reach her or one of her staff (who all knew my case well) through email, or phone call. Kristy sent me texts the night before court dates to tell me to take deep breaths and that she was there with me. As soon as I hired Kristy it felt like I had the entire MHM firm fighting with me. These people truly believe in the justice system, and have moral compasses that can not be turned! Kristy continues to provide ongoing support even after my ex husband was sentenced to prison for 22 years for crimes against children. She is always willing to answer a question or a phone call, and I know she will be honest with me. Kristy wont tell you something is possible if it is not, she will not just give you the answer you are hoping for. She stays professional and has an understanding that the best thing she can do for her clients is to help them understand the legal system, and how it is there to protect/help them. I appreciated this honestly because I always felt confident because I knew our case strong built on fact, not on emotion. My children are safe and happy and beginning to heal from a horrific few years, and I believe that this is possible because of Kristy and the MHM team! THANK YOU!!!

Hired her to represent me in mediation of a child custody case. She failed to submit any time sharing agreement, parenting plan or order to the judge that had anything we agreed to in mediation. I was extremely happy with what she got me in mediation, but it doesn't matter because it was never subm...itted to the court. I have lost all legal custody rights for my child because of this. I brought it to her offices attention 5 months ago. The only thing I have heard from them is how much I still owe.

I hired Kristy for an extremely complicated termination case. Kristy was upfront and honest letting me know of the hurdles we would face but was confident that we could overcome them and preceed with the termination and case. Kristy and her team have been nothing short of amazing to work with. They h...ave worked quickly and efficiently to help cut down on cost.They are quick to respond to any questions and are great at keeping me updated on the case. Kristy has treated my case as if it were her own. She was genuinely concerned with the situation we were in and wanted to help do what was best for my son. We have had a few court dates at this point and she has won them all and been able to do everything she had told me she would. I am 100% confident in Kristy and her team. If you are looking for an attorney who genuinely cares, is upfront, honest, knowledgeable and will work hard to get you the best possible outcome then Kristy is who you want to hire.
