Christine Hayes Sickler

I hired Christine about 4 years back to help with my divorce and custody cases. She eventually helped me with getting a restraining order as well and has done a phenomenal job at every turn. It’s been an extremely difficult case but she has fought for me and my children like we’re her only client and... that has made all the difference. Christine has always given sound advice and doesn’t sugar coat reality. She’s been in the game a long time and it shows! She knows her stuff and is very smart with her strategies. I highly recommend her to anyone!!

I have to give rave reviews for Christine and thumbs down reviews for "Family Court". Christine is up front as much as possible in all ways and her experience & attention to details is exemplary. She also goes out of her way to try to keep expenses down. Bottom line is that you can trust her to do a... good job. Sadly, in Family Court, history has proven time and time again that the woman in a divorce or separation case can get away with virtually anything with total impunity to include any and every type of abuse to include child abuse, elder abuse & violence, lying, falsification of records or documents filed with the court, false testimony, lying at depositions, grand theft robbery, embezzlement, immigration marriage fraud, marriage fraud, and other forms of abuse. The court could care less. When you present even criminal information in court during live testimony, and you hear the presiding judge say; "that's no big deal, lots of people do that", is greatly disappointing and destroys trust in the court system when the judge does not care.

Chris helped me through a very contentious divorce and kept me sane throughout the process She is extremely diligent and thorough. Hence she is very clear about the process and issues to be addressed, and gives a very honest assessment of things. If there are business or real estate assets involv...ed in your divorce Chris is very strong at understanding these and how best to deal with them. Divorce is no fun but having Chris as my attorney gave me a lot of confidence about the whole process and how it plays out.

I had a great experience with the Law Offices of Beatrice L. Snider. Attorney Christine Sickler’s knowledge of case law is unparalleled. My divorce was very contentious and difficult for several reasons. First, my former wife had unrealistic expectations as to the value of our assets and made unreaso...nable demands. She hired an attorney that was not knowledgeable in family law and practices outside of San Diego. Given Ms. Sickler’s expertise in family law coupled with her knowledge of business valuation and tax issues, we were able to accomplish a settlement beyond my expectations. In addition, her paralegal Anita was always available to answer questions and kept me informed as to the status of my case which alleviated my stress during the divorce process.
