Kristina was inspired to pursue a career in the legal field after working as a legal assistant when she was just 16 years old. She graduated with her bachelor’s degree in business management from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and she later decided to obtain her Juris Doctor from UNLV’s William S. Boyd School of Law. She has been practicing since 2002.
As an attorney, Kristina enjoys helping her clients resolve their legal issues, while also helping them understand the legal process. Additionally, she loves helping new attorneys with forms and organizational ideas.

Kristina is the lawyer that most personal injury firms use for their complex post-settlement work. She is a veteran litigator who was an attorney before I started college and was working as a paralegal when I was still in elementary. Her experience, kindness, and ready smile for anyone she meets are great assets to anyone she represents. I endorse this lawyer.
