About Cristina
Biography
My goal is to not only advocate for my clients but also to understand their struggles so that I can become a better attorney. My parents are immigrants from Naples, Italy, so as a first generation U.S. citizen, I understand the balance that many immigrant families try to strike between their old lives and new lives. It is my goal to relentlessly fight for your ability to stay and build that life you have dreamed of and protect your constitutional rights in criminal court.

Where Knowledge and Professionalism Meet!
Cristina was very professional and knowledgeable throughout my case. She always answered all my questions and told me what would happen in each step. Her confidence helped me to be calm and secure in every decision. My family and I couldn't be more thankful. I would definitely recommend her services ...

Replied last May 22, 2019Thank you Rigo! Your case required a lot of hard work and time. I am happy about the results and you have such a lovely family. Your case is a great example of how things go well when the client is attentive and available to do whatever needs to be done. The most successful kind of attorney/client relationship is when both the attorney and client work together.
