Excellent Attorney - Highly Reccomend Her

I hired Christie on two different legal issues. I found her and her office staff to be very professional. Christie is so educated and versed in Law, and she is brilliant in the courtroom. Christie was always quick to respond to any question or concerns that I had. She was absolutely instrumental in... making certain that in both cases that it ended in a positive outcomes. Christie and her staff will go far and above what you can ever expect. Always keeping me abreast of status. In both cases I knew I was in the best of hands and had the best representation. I found her not only to be sharp, and strategist but also a person that truly cares about her clients. She is plain and simply REMARKABLE! I highly recommend her.

Excellent attorney puts the child first

I recently hired Christie. I've been in a terrible divorce battle for 6 years. My first attorney was the most inept attorney you could imagine and created a black hole for me I've been having to deal with. My last attorney came down with cancer right before a court date and had to remove herself imme...diately from the case and recommended Christie. She heard my story and gave me conscice answers and direction. She quickly took action and its been so refreshing. I finally feel there's light at the end of the tunnel. She is truly working in my son's best interest, not mine or his mother's. I'm retired after 25 years in law enforcement. Seeing Christie work is like working with a prosecutor that knows the law and how to put evidence together to get the right outcome.

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.

Christie is very responsive, accessible with a great knowledge base

I met Christie Mitchell when she helped a friend with his divorce. I then had friends needing help with child custody and referred them to her. We needed Christie's advice on a tax matter, from the beginning I was very pleased with her ability to describe our legal situation and outline plans for ...our case. Christie was always patient and there with great advice. She has a great knowledge of the tax laws and what the best options are in many situations. She has a great knowledge of the system and what needs to be done when to expedite the case when it can be so done. With her expertise and experience we were able to get a decision from the courts that was better than we had anticipated. She was able to keep us on track from offering any more than we had to and then was able to get the decision exactly along the lines that we had requested. Christie is very responsive and accessible, and that is important to me. She is highly principled in all she does. We are thankful for her sound legal counsel and problem solving abilities. Great job on her part!
