Amazing, caring, and trustworthy

I hired Kristina when leaving a domestic violence marriage with a baby and I've never felt more supported than by her! She was extremely considerate, kind, did not push anything onto me, and made sure I understood 100% of everything going on. She was not judgemental and she gave wonderful advice and ...if she didn't know an answer off the top of her head she let me know and she went out of her way to get the knowledge. Kristina was someone I could talk to easily and was so friendly and professional and always made sure to get back to my emails very quickly. She is my #1 suggestion to anyone needing her type of service!

Great experience

I was in need of creating a first-time Parenting Plan for my 10-yr old son. His mother & I were never married, and have not been together for several years. It had become apparent recently that my son was no longer safe with her so I set about trying to change that. I initially contacted Kristina for... a consultation and found her advice to be just what I needed. She was very thorough in her explanation of the steps it would involve, how the court would be involved, etc. After talking with her I felt I would be in good and knowledgeable hands. As I write this, the Parenting Plan has already become a final order and I was granted every request. Kristina and her WONDERFUL(!) paralegal, Melinda, guided me and kept me informed at every step. They were a great team working on my behalf

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.
