A breath of fresh air--family law

Kristina has been a dream to work with. After about a year of trying to maneuver the family court system on my own, I hired Kristina to help me. Within months, my ex was finally in accountability court (and then jail) for not paying his child support for 17 months. I almost cried from the relief I fe...lt when the judge finally made clear that he would have to pay. I don't know how I could have done everything without her. My entire family is better off thanks to Kristina. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs an attorney. She sets realistic expectations and then does everything she can for a positive outcome.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
