Excellent, prompt, professional - would use again

Cristina helped me with a cohabitation agreement as well as a living will and advance healthcare directive. She is very knowledgeable, efficient, and has the experience to understand how these types of matters are contested in court, which is an essential differentiator when selecting a lawyer. It's ...one thing to get an attorney with a specialization in a practice area, but it's a shorter list that have been in court and can author agreements and contracts in such as way that they are preserved and remain as intended even under protest. Cristina did a great job and I would recommend her highly for family law matters and contract matters.

Real Estate Planning

I contacted Cristina on a matter of land possesion and conflict. She was informative as to our legal position and proposed a plan of resolution which totally resolved the conflict with my neighbor. This plan involved several steps including a land survey and contact with neighbor. She kept me informe...d throughout each step. I was able to build a retaining wall legally with the help of Cristina and the planner from the City of Bellevue. Sometimes walls do make good neighbors. After this experience Dan and I went back to Christina for to update our wills. Again she was informative and gave us good advice on how to taylor our estate to support our children that are currently minors should we die. I have recommended Cristina to several friends that are considering legal aid for property modifications that involve neighbors.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2016.

Reprimand issued in WA, 2016

updated on 06/20/2016

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
