I say 5 stars because she did everything I asked and won everything I set out to win. The only thing i had a problem with was advice on the support. I didn't get any. I ended up giving the ex a number she shouldnt have gotten.(trying to be nice). I should have just waited 3 more months for the new laws to take effect.

I found Kristie to be a very caring and competent attorney. She knew the right questions to ask me, took time to listen and made sure she covered all areas of importance anytime we had a court date. She explained the court procedures to me every step of the way. Kristie is detail oriented and it shows in all her work. I was grateful for that!!! I appreciated the fact that my calls and e-mails were promptly responded to, as well as receiving copies of paperwork needed for my case quickly from her. My divorce took a year to finalize - ending April, 2014. In that time span, I saw an extremely professional attorney who was quite knowledgeable, well-organized and able to stay on top of any obstacles we had to deal with. Although divorce is not pleasant, Kristie did help me get through mine much easier than I had anticipated. I can't find fault with anything she did, and would recommend her highly to anyone in need of a divorce attorney.

Kristie is a plan speaking attorney, who is ethical and is prepared when she goes to court. I found Kristie to be an honest attorney who's advise was sound and practical. Too often attorneys fail to educate their clients or keep them informed, Kristie is very good communicating with her clients.

Kristie Fingerhut is by and far the most outstanding attorney I have ever had represent me. I had a very complicated divorce and continue to need representation for a multitude of post-divorce issues. Kristie is a brilliant attorney, and always gets me exactly what I need whether in court or via consultation with the opposing attorney. She responds immediately to my calls/emails, knows exactly how to handle my issues, no matter how complicated they are and resolves them quickly. I seriously do not know where my children and I would be without her. I highly recommend Kristie and cannot praise her enough for all that she has done for me and my kids!

I'm a father. I used Schiller, Ducanto, & Fleck for my divorce ---- and used Eric Schulman. Nice enough guy, but I felt he was more interested in my money than in my success. A few years after my divorce, I went back to petition for more time w my son. I used Kristie Fingerhut for that process. After a very contentious process w my ex-wife, I now have near 40% of time w my son. Kristie was a great contributor to the process. And, I felt she did so in a cost effective manner. In general, I find lawyers in the family law field to be a bit unscrupulous. Yet, Kristie is of a highly different variety. I'm a big fan of Kristie and would recommend her to anyone going through a divorce, or as in my instance, for revisions to a parenting agreement. Truly, I can't say enough good things about her. She is a diamond in the rough, so to speak....

Ms. Fingerhut was late to a deposition that she scheduled and to court. The direction she told me the case was going took a drastic turn. I paid a lot of money to lose a lot of money to the Judge's decision. I do not feel Ms, Fingerhut was prepared or focused on my case.
