Both Caring and Determined.

Kristian was instrumental in representing us in a delicate rental property rights issue. It concerned us (the landlord in this case) and our continued right to rent our condo. The HOA Board has become adamantly against renters in recent times and had passed a variety of amendments to the CC&R's gr...adually stripping away rental rights including the highly valued grandfather clauses. He negotiated on our behalf an amicable agreement between our two parties. We were very pleased with his attention to detail, enthusiasm and doggedness. We would highly recommend him, and would use him again if the situation arises.

Kristian is a talented advocate

Kristian helped me with a very difficult tenant/landlord conflict. My former landlord was very intimidating and threatened to sue me for thousands in purported damages to his townhouse, claims I knew were unfounded but, due to my current physical condition I found it very difficult to fight back. ...Kristian took control, reviewed all the facts and generated a letter that made all their claims vaporize. In all aspects Kristian exhibited professionalism, intelligence, efficiency and a clear understanding of the law. I would highly recommend him in any matter that you need a talented advocate.

Client Review

The work that Kristian did for us was thorough and professional. Kristian has a passionate drive toward law that I could describe as his greatest gift. It was a pleasure working with him and my husband and I will continue to seek his counsel in the future.

A Fine Lawyer

When I require the services of an attorney I expect them to conduct themselves as sole advocate to my interests. Mr. Soholm has always met or exceeded my expectations. Honesty, integrity and professional are just a few words that describe Kristian Soholm. I most highly recommend his services.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
