Awesome Lawyer

Christina helped me with my divorce and was very professional throughout the process. She always kept me informed on any changes or correspondence. Responses were prompt. The most important factor to me was that she had my best interest in mind and not trying to nickle and dime me. A lot of lawyers ...are just out to drag things out for their own personal proffit. Christina is all about getting it done the most timely and cost effective way. She is very personable and a pleasure to work with. I cannot say enough good things about her. I would highly recommend her to anyone and would definitely use her again.

I CANNOT believe she is still allowed to practice.

This woman (and I use that loosely) completely failed me years ago, at a time when I was so vulnerable that I still haven't gotten over it. Child custody is painful, the court process is nerve wracking and there is a lot on the line when it comes to one's own kids. This lawyer took the retainer and N...EVER ONCE returned a call or met with me again. I did not even think she was going to show up to court (a full month after I hired her) but she did. Late, (in sweatpants, a ratty sweater, and tennies) with ANOTHER CLIENT at the same time who she went and sat with in a different courtroom almost the entire time. She had no idea what she was doing since she never once talked to me after our consultation. After she completely failed to help me, and actually harmed my case with her inept knowledge, she had the nerve to take my file (which i provided to her) out of state so I didn't even have acess to my own paperwork (that i paid out of my own pocket for). Did i mention she ditched out of state after creating a HUGE mess at a *real* lawyers office after she joined as a 'partner' immediately after i hired her? If you want to hear from a professional attorney's office employee the truth about this woman, just find the Law Office of John Coyle and see what they have to say about her. when she was with them, after i was so frustrated that she was not returning my calls, I called and to tried to insist i would wait to speak directly to her and the receptionist literally said "there is NINE callers ahead of you waiting to speak to her." 9 !! In the end, after *a lot* of BS, i got the vast majority of my retainer back through arbitration. She is exactly why lawyers, especially family law attorneys, have such a bad reputation. She has soiled her father's fine reputation.
