The absolute best
Elizabeth was amazingly helpful in my child custody case. She was knowledgeable, thorough, and gave me honest assessments and sound advice. Following her expert guidance through a difficult case brought a happy resolution I don't believe I could have achieved through anyone else. She is the best.

Very Professional with good results
Elizabeth Christy represented me in my divorce. The divorce was a pretty challenging one but she and her assistant, Amber, handled it well.

I wouldn't recommend her
January 2022-After spending over a year communicating via email only with a lot of communication problems and misunderstandings. I paid my Lawyer over $22k for mediation. I believe a lot of these misunderstandings could have been resolved with a phone call, but she wasn't available most of the time....
Dear Former Client - I’m unable to substantively respond to your review because I’m bound by attorney client confidentiality. I disagree completely with all of your statements except I admit I did take your complaints personally. Because my name is on the door, I am personally invested in providing the best service to my clients. Although you claim you are unhappy with my services, I would bet that any third party who reviewed your public court file would see what I see, that you were the prevailing party. The fees paid were actually below average and were consistent with the estimates in the fee agreement you signed when you retained me. It is unusual for a former client to outright lie in this manner. I am specifically troubled by your allegation that I advised you to sign a retirement form when I have just the opposite in writing. Your blatant misrepresentations are so out of the ordinary that I can only assume this is an attempt to get me to waive your outstanding balance with my office. I hope that you find the strength to heal from this process. Wish you the best, Elizabeth
