Not her best case apparently
Everyone else seems to think she did well for them. It makes me feel like I was working with someone else. Multiple times, she did not have the required paperwork. The judge / clerk provided it to her so we could continue on without delaying the divorce for even more months. It dragged out. Sh...

"I’ve known Kristina for the entirety of her legal career and highly recommend her. As a fellow member of the State Bar, I have no reservations referring clients to her. She is a talented attorney who navigates complex criminal and family law cases passionately and effectively. Many attorneys with brilliant legal minds struggle with efficiency and efficacy. Not Kristina. She is a wicked smart straight shooter who gets the job done - and well. Clients are notoriously pleased with her work and find her relatable, honest and compassionate."
"I endorse this lawyer. Kristina is a knowledgeable, reasonable attorney who effectively advocates for her clients. She is a capable of reaching fair agreements with her clients' interests in mind or litigating if necessary. Kristina has years of criminal courtroom experience behind her as well."
"Kristina is a great lawyer who isn’t afraid to litigate on behalf of her clients. She has a great deal of trial experience in criminal and family court. Highly recommend!"
"When I get phone calls asking for a referral to a family law lawyer I recommend Kristina Matthews. I've known her for over a decade and know her to be an accomplished litigator and strong advocate for her clients. The ultimate compliment I can pay her is she is one of the very few people that I would NOT want to go up against in court. I've sent several clients to her and they have all thanked me. That says a lot."
"Kristina is well know in our community for her skill. She is highly skilled, direct and aggressive."
