Custoday/child support case

Kristen is very sassy she really works hard for you and she tells you exactly how it is she did everything possible for my case and did everything for the best outcome possible for my case I would highly recommend her. If you need an excellent attorney hire her you truly get what you pay for.

Aggressive, insightful, caring, successful

Attorney Holstrom is a caring, intelligent, and hardworking attorney who will aggressively pursue the best interests of one's child. Kristen's genuine care manifests itself in the countless hours that she has invested to secure the welfare of my child and answering and counseling me with all the conc...erns I have had since the journey to protect my child began over a year ago. Attorney Holstrom has used her innate intelligence and her years of experience in the world of family law to dynamically represent my child and I. From the beginning, Kristen has provided me a foundation for an accurate and realistic understanding of and expectations for my case. Furthermore, and most importantly, Kristen has guided me at every step of the way. Her guidance has included conferences to go over what to expect from the legal process, including me in strategic decisions, and graciously and patiently answering my questions - both good queries and inane ones from an inexperienced client as myself. Attorney Holstrom's background includes playing collegiate soccer. I only mention this because it is clear that Kristen's competitive spirit and fierce work ethic translates into an attorney who best strives for the best interests of one's children. Attorney Holstrom always makes the time to make my child and I a priority, including the countless nights that she has poured over my case for the benefit of my child. Because of Kristen's skill, aggressive course of action, and dedication to my child, I have been awarded primary custody. Thanks to Attorney Holstrom, my child's needs are now being taken care of and protected in the manner that my child deserves. Just as a great surgeon makes sure that her patient is taken care of after a procedure is completed, Attorney Holstrom has continued to take care of my child and I to ensure that my child's and I's rights are continued to be protected. I am grateful for the dedicated and dynamic work Kristen and the Team have done, my child and I have been blessed to have Attorney Holstrom and the team advocating for us. I highly and without reservation recommend Attorney Holstrom - a dynamic and world-class lawyer. Her intelligence, concern, and competitive drive have allowed my child's best interests to truly be served and protected.

Top Notch

Attorney Kristen Holstrom has been a true advocate for my daughter and I's wellbeing. She has been very forthcoming, open and honest with all the details of my custody case. She's set me up in advance with clear expectations utilizing excellent communication skills every step of the way. I highly rec...ommend this firm, especially Attorney Kirsten Holstrom.

Life saver

After learning of my husband's infidelity, my emotions were running high and I decided it was best for me to immediately consult with divorce lawyers to find out what my options were. After consulting with several different lawyers, I eventually found Holstrom, Block and Parke. After a brief phon...e consultation with Kristen Holstrom, I believed Holstrom, Block and Parke was a great fit for my needs. I immediately scheduled a consultation with Ms. Holstrom following our telephone call. During my initial consultation with Kristen Holstrom, she gave me a sense of confidence and comfort, and patiently explained the divorce process and what my options were. She gave me the information I needed to hear and not necessarily what I wanted to hear, which I liked. Ms. Holstrom didn't pressure me to hire her and actually suggested that I take some time to really think about whether I could work things out with my husband. After taking a couple weeks to weigh out my options, I decided to call Ms. Holstrom to let her know I was ready to proceed with the divorce. I appreciated the fact that she remembered our conference from a couple weeks back and all of the details of my case. Ms. remained supportive and attentive throughout my case and got my divorce finalized relatively quickly, including sole legal and sole physical custody of my daughter. I can't recommend Kristen enough. Marie Braun was also an attorney that assisted with my case. Ms. Braun was sharp, experienced and handled my hearings with ease. Between the two attorneys and their support staff I was well taken care. This process was not always easy, but Holstrom, Block and Parke was always there when I needed them and they delivered results. My daughter and I are forever grateful. I have since referred family members and friends to Holstrom, Block and Parke.

Intelligent, generous, helpful

Kristen was extremely helpful to me. She listened to what I had to say, helped me focus on the income/expense information that was critical, and provided me a well thought-out plan for making decisions in my custody/support case. I deeply appreciate the help she gave me, and although this was only ...a consultation, I would not hesitate to hire her and her firm for my legal needs. I am grateful.
