Felony Fugitive Defense Client

How can I sum up Kristen's service to my case ? Amazing. Extremely professional. Miraculous. Kristen seriously worked wonders for me and my family. She knew exactly what she was doing with my fugitive case, and her timing with the prosecution was spot-on. I was facing a very long possible sentence fo...r a case from my past. Although I've since gotten my life together, with my long list of priors I was looking at quite a few years behind bars. YEARS! On top of that I would have been relocated, had to go through parole again, etc. Thank god I had enlisted the services of Kristen Hanna Slone previous to my arrest. I knew she'd handled hundreds of fugitive cases in the past. Kristen and her investigators helped build a great working defense for me and with her savvy in the prosecutor's office she managed to maneuver my case with perfect timing and ease. With her help I ultimately won my felony case- a multiple years sentence reduced to 5 days served and $500 restitution. UNHEARD OF! I am so thankful, words can't come close to expressing my gratitude. Her costs are reasonable, and she was great at explaining the "legal jargon" so everything made sense. She was patient and realistic, and told me exactly how it was. She was great at working with my business partner and family while I was in custody, and always answered my calls. I can't tell you what a relief that was for me, and it made all the difference in the time between arrest and release. I know she worked extremely hard on my case, and the results were better than I could have dared to hope for. Kristen truly worked a miracle for me, now I can get back to living my life and spending time with my family again. She's loyal, hard working, and it's clear she has an obvious passion for criminal defense. I would hire her again in a heartbeat if I needed to, and I truly can't recommend her enough. If I ever need a lawyer for criminal defense in Washington again, she's the one.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Attorney Slone is a friend, but that is not why I am endorsing her. I am endorsing Kristin Slone because she is a great lawyer. I've worked on cases with Kristin and am always impressed with her deportment and ease with handling complicated litigation and simplifying difficult legal ideas and issues so that the prosecutor and Judge can understand her viewpoint on the client's behalf. If you need a great lawyer, then hire attorney Kristin Slone."
