Christy Kay LaGrandeur

I couldn’t have asked for better representation from Christy. She helped me with modifying the parenting plan and establishing child support. She is very knowledgeable, efficient, and very personable. She made me feel as if I was in good hands and at ease with her honesty, humor, and straight to the ...point approach. Christy is a great attorney and I would highly recommend her.

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.

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.

I retained Christy to help fight the relocation of my two children across the country. She jumped on the case and began working immediately on strategy and drafting the paperwork for the objection. She was always very responsive, even while she was in trial all week. Christy was very effective, kn...owledgeable, confident and a pleasure to work with. One thing I really like about her firm is there are no paralegals, so 100% of my case got her personal attention and it showed. Shortly after we filed the objection and served my ex-wife the papers, she dropped the petition for relocation. My kids are staying here! I give all the credit to Christy and her timeliness, knowledge, skill and the effective strategy she implemented.
