Divorce with child custody issues

From start to finish, Kristen Holstrom and her team worked tirelessly on my behalf, handling every detail with precision, professionalism, and care. Their ability to break down complex legal matters in a way that was easy to understand gave me confidence throughout the process. They were always respo...nsive, thorough, and proactive, making sure I was informed and supported at every turn. Beyond their expertise, what truly sets Kristen and her team apart is their genuine care for their clients. They approached my case with grace, empathy, and a fierce commitment to advocating for my best interests. Their dedication made a difficult process so much more manageable, and I always felt like I had a strong team standing behind me. If you’re looking for a family law firm that provides top-tier legal expertise with a compassionate, client-focused approach, I highly recommend Kristen Holstrom and her team at Holstrom, Block & Parke. Their knowledge, support, and advocacy are truly unmatched. I am forever grateful for their outstanding service!

Fathers have rights also.

Kristen and Magen were absolutely amazing. They truly took the time to listen to my case and understood the unique challenges I faced as a single father. In a system where fathers often don’t receive the same attention or support, especially when it comes to custody, they saw beyond my gender and foc...used on my case with genuine care. They recognized the importance of advocating for my child’s well-being, and they went into court prepared to fight for me. Having a child with autism and dealing with the difficulties of missed visits, domestic violence at the other parent’s home, and the regression in my son’s behavior when he returned home was emotionally overwhelming. I needed professionals who could hear my concerns, understand my situation, and organize my evidence effectively for the judge. Kristen and Magen did just that. They put together a powerful narrative for both my son and me. Thank you both for giving me the confidence that as a father, I have rights too. May God continue to bless you as you represent parents who always prioritize the best interests of the child. You both rock! Thank you for everything.

Look no further for a family law attorney!

After going through a very toxic and hostile 2 year custody battle and having 2 prior attorneys representing me, my husband found Kristen Holstrom and Samantha McBride from Holstrom, Block, and Parke on SuperLawyers.com. The first time I ever stepped foot into Holstrom, Block, and Parke I was amazed.... The office is very nice and professional, and every employee is pleasant and professional. The members of my legal team included several people, from administrative personal to paralegals and attorneys. Everyone works together as a team so every member of my legal team representing me knew exactly what was going on with my case. I never once felt the need to micromanage and had 100% confidence that they knew every single detail of my case. I never once had to remind them of significant details regarding my case. Their response time is impeccable and prompt, and it was very easy to get a hold of my legal team when needed. Despite their case load, I was always made to feel like my case was their top priority. Not for the person who is on a budget, but they are 100% worth the money spent! Kristen Holstrom was one of the two attorneys representing me and she was everything I prayed for in an attorney. She is an absolute gem and I have nothing but positive things to say about her and the law firm. She is top notch when it comes to her knowledge regarding custody laws, in particular custody cases involving substance abuse. She is very protective of her clients and individuals involved in the case, and will not say or do anything to jeopardize their wellbeing. She is very honest and will give you advice even if it’s not what you want to hear at the time. She is very tactical and strategic with her litigation, and knows opposing counsels tactics as well. She is assertive in the courtroom and quite a pistol, yet handles arguments with such grace. She took my case on knowing that I had been done wrong in the past by prior attorneys, and was more than ready to fight for me and my son. She was simply a godsend and was able to successfully get me 100% of what I was fighting for.
