Christy Kay LaGrandeur

I had an hour consultation in which she agreed to an emediatle letter being written, as well as a plan for retaining her as my representation on a modification with domestic violence. I made it clear that I anticipated a big fight leading to a possible trial from my wealthy ex on this matter. I left... her office feeling confident that I had found the attorney for me. Especially when she said that she could start with a letter for the emediate pending situation and go forward from there with a retainer. I told her I saved for months to afford a retainer. But after three weeks of leaving messages I finally received a call from someone else in the office informing me that they didn't call me back because "they don't write free letters, and how busy they are with big, high stakes litigation and emergency situations for children." They simply did not have the time to take my case. I felt like I was not worthy of their services, that my domestic violence was not worth their time, as well as the safety of my son was not worth their defense. I think they really thought I had no money so they just didn't return calls for weeks, even to simply tell me they weren't taking my case. My final thought is that Christie and her assistent are unprofessional with no communication protocols, poor work ethics, and little to no morals to follow through with her verbal agreement with a human being coming to her for help. And to make matters worse she communicated her version of the situation very far from the truth, and had someone else handle the return call to me. Very unprofessional.

My wife and I hired Christy to draft a prenuptial agreement for us earlier in 2016. When Christy sent over a draft of the document, it appeared to be a mish-mash of several different documents copied and pasted together. I had my business lawyer review it, and my wife also had her lawyer look over ...the document. Both lawyers came back to us and suggested we re-draft the document from scratch - they both advised us not to use the document drafted by Christy, as it was poorly written, not professional, and not likely to protect our assets going into our marriage. My wife's lawyer said she could re-write it for $1k and my business lawyer ended up re-writing it for about $750, which is what we paid Christy to do it for. After having the document re-written, we circled back with Christy to simply get a signature from her to represent my wife, and she refused saying it was a conflict of interest - yet she waited until THE DAY BEFORE OUR WEDDING to respond to us giving us no time to seek out other counsel. The lack of communication, poor consultation, and the fact that she had no desire to rectify anything or help out in the end was a disgrace to her firm. We would not recommend this firm or Christy to anyone. We requested a refund on her poorly drafted document, which was not even usable, and she said that her firm put double the amount of time and money into it. Our recommendation is to keep looking for legal representation, as Christy has no desire to promote customer service, no integrity, slow response time, and overall left us with a terrible experience. She charged us $750 and we got absolutely nothing from her services; when we asked for a refund, she basically spit in our faces.

Christy handle my child support modification case. She is very very experienced profesional she knows what she is doing and she never give up she is fighting until she win. My daughters dad hired two attorneys to fight for lower child support payment and they were loosers. I got a nice child suppor...t Ruled I would definately recommend Christy for everybody and will use her in the future for sure.

Ms. LaGrandeur is trustworthy, compassionate, and most importantly, she's a bulldog. If I were an attorney on the other side I would not want to go up against Ms. LaGrandeur! Interestingly, towards her clients, she's a sweetheart. We were immediately comforted when she met with us and LISTENED to ...our unique family law issues. It is clear that Ms. LaGrandeur is in this business for all the right reasons! Dealing with child custody issues from a difficult and threatening ex-spouse was very scary to us. We feared we would lose our rights to our four-year-old son. But within 30 minutes we felt empowered and enlightened. Over the course of her representation, Ms. LaGrandeur gave us outstanding legal advice and provided us with realistic options. In many ways she taught us how to find our own voices. Flash forward two years. Our son is now six. Thanks to Ms. LaGrandeur we challenged the ex-spouse's claim to full custody head-on, and she backed down. In fact, when it was all over, the ex-spouse was a little scared of what we would do next. We see our son regularly and we are no longer living in fear that the ex-spouse will play with our custodial rights to our son. We owe all of this to Ms. LaGrandeur. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
