Elizabeth is one of the few attorney's who has a heart and a genuine concern for people. I went through a very tough divorce that would have had any other attorney setteling instead of fighting. She saw what was going on and, just let me tell you, this woman will not give up on her clients. As long as you are honest and up front with her, she will go the distance for her clients. If you are looking for someone who is honest, tough, compassionate and VERY knowledgeable, Elizabeth Christy is your attorney!!
Elizabeth was a pleasure to have on my side. She was very helpful, understanding, and honest. I was grateful for her hard work and help during a difficult time.

Very Satisfied
Elizabeth Christy functions with skill, experience, and integrity and it showed in her handling of my divorce. I was amazed at the way she argued my case in mediation before the judge and I told her later that it was money well spent to have hired her based on that alone. Her support staff is wonderful and helpful also. Nobody wins in divorce- but Elizabeth was compassionate and quite protective of me during this confusing and vulnerable time.

Excellent Divorce Attorney
Elizabeth took on my divorce case at the end. I was very relieved, as my previous attorney experience was Horrible and didn’t help me to finalize my divorce. Elizabeth and Leslie helped me by reassuring me, answering my questions and always got back to me within the same day that I emailed them. Having to go through my divorce during Covid wasn’t easy and took longer than anticipated because of courthouse closing, etc.
Elizabeth helped prepare me for dealing with this over Zoom and saw me through a difficult time. Elizabeth listened to my concerns and also advised me in what she thought would be best for me. However, she would always make sure I approved of everything and only went with what I wanted. Elizabeth, Leslie and Wendy helped me to finalize my divorce in a professional and kind manner. They were thorough and detail oriented, which I appreciated. I was very happy in my experience with Elizabeth and her team and would highly recommend her firm to anyone going through a divorce.

Lengthy Divorce and Child Custody Case w/ Substance Abuse and Complicated Financial Settlement
I worked with Elizabeth for over 2 years on a very complicated divorce and child custody case. I highly recommend Elizabeth and her team! My case involved countless legal documents and numerous court appearances. Elizabeth's materials were always high quality, she has a very diligent work style, and she has a strong understanding of the courts / law / parenting / addiction. A seasoned attorney and team is well worth the investment. Best of luck to anyone beginning a divorce or child custody case, godspeed!

Great Council!
I had consulted with three family law attorneys before retaining Elizabeth Christy's office. Elizabeth communicates thoughtfully, clearly and timely. I never had to follow up on a question I had or a matter she was to handle.
In my divorce case, the other party, along with her attorney, was fairly difficult in my opinion, often making unsubstantiated claims and misrepresenting facts within the documents they were submitting to us and the court. To make matters harder on us I made a mistake and got a DUI during this time which was often used to characterize me in an unfavorable way. Though, with no judgement or hesitation, Elizabeth continued to draft and submit replies in response to the other parties claims and they were very clear and factual. At one point the court even awarded us $2,500 in attorney fees as a direct result of Elizabeth’s ability to stick to the facts and present them clearly and favorably to our side.
Elizabeth’s fees were very transparent and I received monthly statements showing what work was done, how much time was committed to each task and a total amount due. Not once did I feel the need to question her billing practices.
Without describing in detail every aspect, in the end our settlement resulted in 50/50 parenting time with my child and the asset allocation was more beneficial to me than I expected. I would not hesitate to retain Elizabeth again in the future.

Excellent and honest services
Elizabeth and her team are very responsive, professional and honest. Even when the odds are slim, they will be upfront about their thoughts on the potential outcome which shows that that genuinely care about the financial burden during the divorce/custody situations. Would recommend for any and all divorce/custody needs!

Exceptional Attorney, Amazing Person
I found myself in Elizabeth’s office in 2017 with my newborn son. She has been there for us since and I cannot even begin to describe how all around wonderful she is! She is the most intelligent individual I know, very respected, and she genuinely CARES. She tackles every situation with the utmost of logic and preparedness. She takes heart in achieving the best results for your case and most importantly for your children. Words could never explain how grateful I am for Elizabeth, Leslie, and the rest of her amazing team. If you are looking for an experienced, professional, devoted attorney, I cannot recommend Elizabeth Christy enough. She is truly one in a million!

Short Case
Hired Elizabeth and I felt comfortable with her from the moment I met her and she was willing to answer all my questions. Her staff was great in getting back to me right away with my concerns. Although I did not need her services for long as it turned out I still found her to be a reputable attorney and I would recommend her services.

AMAZING!!!
I hired Elizabeth to help me with the custody of my son in 2010. I cannot say enough good things about her! She explained the process all the way until the end, eased my mind, and fought for the best possible outcome for my son and myself. Since we filed the final parenting plan, she has been there for me to answer questions regarding my case, walked me through the process of filing relocation, and has given me great legal advice and quick responses when I have emailed her with questions. I honestly don’t think there are enough stars on here to give her the rating that she deserves! I would definitely recommend her to anyone going through this type of situation!
