More Knowledge Off The Top Of Her Head Than Any Other Lawyer I've Had....Awesome!!

After Christine branched out and started her own law firm I noticed a huge difference in the way my case was being handled. Not only were my questions finally being answered but Christine has answered all of my questions right off the top of her head. She is always on top of the current and grandfath...ered Workers' Comp Laws. Christine not only fought for me instead of talking me into settling so she could make a quick buck but she got the surgery I needed three times. She also fought to get me on Social Security Disability and won that case as well. Without that I would have lost my disability pension. On top of everything else she fought for me to get one of the hardest settlements there is...100% disability in both Social Security and Workers' Compensation. There is so much corruption with workers faking injuries that 100% disability is almost unheard of these days. Dealing with two different cases and insurance companies for both of my Workers' Comp claims was a struggle for me to keep up and sorted but her firm never skipped a beat. If it wasn't for Christine's vast knowledge of the current and grandfathered laws I would be living on the street now. That's how close I was to running out of money before she took over my cases. Even though both of my cases have been settled, Christine and her staff are always there for me when I need follow up surgery or if I run into problems with the insurance companies. She has always guided me for the best possible outcome without thinking twice about how it would effect her fees. If you need an outstanding attorney to handle your case I would not hesitate for a second in recommending Christine and her staff. I'm lucky to have Christine as my attorney because she is a no nonsense woman who knows the laws. Some of my family and friends would look at me and ask why I cannot work anymore because I am able to walk and sit down for an hour or so but Christine saw right through that and could tell I am in undeniable pain 24/7. If you're looking to settle a false claim to make a quick buck then go somewhere else. Christine is the real deal!

Christine new Lancaster Office Very Helpful & Convenient

Christine just opened her second location in Lancaster, which is great for me, because now I don't need to drive an hour away to her Westlake location. Nicole, her legal assistant has been so helpful and always calls me back which I really appreciated. We do not have many workers comp attorneys in th...e Antelope Valley therefore, thank you so much Christine for opening this 2nd office, to help our community with an actual caring attorney. I will continue to refer all my friends, family and coworkers to your firm.
