Christina has been my attorney for the duration of an extremely difficult and twist turning case. Every time I have needed guidance she has never steered me in the wrong direction. I have felt confident in her services and have always looked to her for information on how to proceed in different circumstances she has always been 100% devoted and true to her word, working to the top of her abilities and beyond to make sure every possible thing is being done for me in my case.

Although my ex and I still loved each other, neither of us were happy and decided the best course was to get a divorce. We heard about mediation and since we didn't want to get a judge involved in making decisions for us, it was the clear choice for us. Christina educated us, walked us through the process, and helped us make a fair settlement that allowed us to walk away from our marriage without any hard feelings. Thank you Christina, we couldn't save our marriage, but you helped save our friendship!

Christina dragged out my court case, did not even speak in court. My frustration led me to speak out in court to defend myself and my daughter. Almost held in contempt of court. Struck her a final check and watched her stroll down Delaware Ave. smiling and laughing. Attorney's and Magistrates know the outcome of your case well in advance. They will continue to suck money from you and drag out cases for their own financial benefit. Charged me an astronomical amount of money for terrible work.

The consultation with Christina went well, but once I paid my $3500 retainer, my divorce case went nowhere. Numerous phone calls and emails went unanswered as my retainer dwindled. She could not even collect simple paperwork from the opposing side, and spoke for me in our first court appearance incorrectly, as if she hadn't taken a single note from our meeting. The last straw was when she went to the second court appearance on my behalf after we decided it would be postponed due to lack of information from the opposing side and I still have no idea what transpired in that appearance for MY divorce. Do not retain her for your divorce, the case will drag on and you will be uniformed during the process.
