Hands Down Best Family Law Attorney Anywhere!!!

After getting hosed by a large law firm (who the lead attorney is now in jail ) Christie took the case. Not only did she charge very little but she performed well beyond our expectations. Since then we have referred her to several others and all have been super happy.

The best family law attourey period.

Christie handled my dissolution of marriage along with custody issues with the kids. She was honest from the start gave no false ideas as to what was going to happen. She handled the process quickly and inexpensively compared to my previous attorney. Unfortunately in any divorce you do not always ge...t what you hope for. I appreciated her honesty in explaining the process along with what is achievable and what was not. I've recommended her to many of my friends. And unfortunately have also seen one of my friends with an attorney going up against her. That's a predicament you do not want to be in. I'm so thankful she was ony team.

Shelly from Roseville

The most amazing attorney!!! Was there doing exactly what a superior attorney would do for a client. I went through a divorce and without Christie's knowledge and expertise it would have been so much worse. Her knowledge of the law and the courts and legal system has her hands down ahead of the res...t of the attorneys I spoke to before hiring Christie!! Her representation through out the entire process was OUTSTANDING!!! I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pit-bull who will protect them to the end!!!

Best Lawyer! Christie was truly my blessing!

I will always recommend Christie to anyone I know because she is very knowledgeable about family law. Christie took the time to get to know me and why I was fighting for my daughter's rights. I had a lawyer before her that was always telling me "no that won't work" not Christie. She was honest and to...ld me what I needed to hear and not sugar coat it and explained to me what the law was and not beat around the bush. I so appreciated that. I always knew where I stood with her prior to going into court and I was so well informed by Christie. I consider Christie my friend not just my lawyer she made me feel like I was family and that is what I needed during my child custody hearings. Anyone will be lucky to have her as their lawyer.

Best Family Attorney in Sacramento

I was referred to Christie Mitchell after paying a lawyer $15,000 and not having him resolve any issues for me. Christie picked up the ball and ran with it in minimal time. She is reasonably priced, ethical and gets issues resolved in the utmost professional manner. Christie is very honest about how ...she feels the outcome will play out and therefore it allows for reassurance and preparedness when appearing in court. I have referred many friends to Christie, all of whom have been beyond pleased with the services she provided and the outcome of their case. In fact, they too have referred their acquaintances to Christie also. Christie is well liked and respected within the Sacramento court system and it is apparent when she goes in front of the judge. If you are looking for a professional, honest, knowledgeable and reasonably priced family lawyer.......call Christie Mitchell, you will be pleased with the outcome.
