Best Lawyer Ever!!!

I gained custody of my son three years ago. It took a year in court and dozens of court appreances and I couldn't have done it without the help and support of my attorney Kristi Fox. I remeber when I called her three years ago to talk about obtaining her counsel. She came over that same night in the ...middle of a storm to talk to us about our options and put us at ease. She has since then represented us two more times in the past three years. Needless to say we have won all three times my ex has taken me back to court. Kristi Fox is an amazing attorney!!! Her professionalism, assertiveness, and dedication speak volumes in court. This is one women you would not want to be sitting across from in court. Through this amazing journey I have learned what an amazing, strong, powerful women Kristi Fox is. I could never have done this without her help. No words can desbcribe how grateful I am to her for her help. You are an amazing attorney and a true friend. I am glad to have had this chance to meet and work with you.

Wonderful,hardworking and devoted attorney,couldn't have asked for a better lawyer!! Thank you

This is a very hardworking attorney , very knowledgeable in her areas of study. I couldn't have asked or received a better lawyer for my case at that time. i was contacted with any and all information to do with my case in a very timely manner, I had access to call her if their was an emergency and n...eeded to be brought forth to the table, she was right their! again as I said you cant go wrong with this one!!! Thank you for your time, and yes!!! We won, what was said to be unlikely and with no one defeating this company up until my court date, we walked out not only with a win but justice that was well deserved, thanks to this woman's patience understanding and good hard old fashion studying and work!! Without her ,that couldn't have been possible . Thank you Mrs. Fox "incredible work "

Kristi helped me avoid an expensive disaster

someone was trying to get a summary judgement against me. I contacted Kristi and she took over the case. She came to court with me twice and got the motion thrown out. The judge agreed with her on every case point she made. She is detailed, smart and doesn't give up. Excellent attorney.

Help we needed

So far we have loved the work Kristi has done for our case. She's been there very time we have needed her to be and she's always willing to answer any question we have.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
