Kristy L Hanson

Doesn't thoroughly check documentation submitted for affadavits to ensure honesty and accuracy. Allows her office staff to submit whatever they like without reviewing it or even consulting with her clients. Bills clients months after services are terminated but doesn't give any forewarning about debt... accrued ahead of time. Got a surprise bill for an additional $3,000.

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.

My divorce was about as high conflict as you can get. My ex is afflicted with a full-blown personality disorder and is a very convincing victim. As a result, my most likely prospects were for a litigated divorce which would likely have lasted years and cost an extraordinary amount of money. It also w...ould have put my kids in the middle of such an ugly process. Kristy helped to expertly navigate my divorce mediation and facilitate a much shorter and less expensive process than otherwise awaited me. She has been genuinely concerned with my best interests and the best interests of my children. Now that my divorce has been finalized for some time, my ex is repeatedly not fulfilling her obligations under the decree, causing more challenges with my relationship with my kids. I've gone back to Kristy and she is aggressively and skillfully helping me to fix those issues through all available legal means. Kristy is very assertive and is as sharp as they come in the court room. I don't think I've ever seen her nervous. She is very knowledgeable and has excellent relationships and connections in the legal community. Kristy is a true advocate in that she will give you strong, wise advice on the best and most likely ways to achieve your objectives, but she won't fight with you about your objectives. She has great counsel on strategy, tactics and direction, but if you don't want to follow her advice she will ultimately represent your goals in your case the way you want her to, unless of course you want her to do anything unethical. If you're a thinking person who wants to play an active role in your own case with a real advocate by your side, then in my experience, Kristy is a great choice.
