I came to Christian to get out of an abusive relationship. He took the time to listen to me and explained things in a way that put me at ease. When my ex tried to get full custody of my kids, he stood up for me and fought for my interests in court. After interviewing 3 attorneys we felt very confident in hiring Christian for our daughter.

Christian did a great job on my case for for my girls. Even during the court shut down. He was very informative and helped us through a very difficult time in our lives. He has the ability to give you the real most likely outcome without over promising anything with a court result. Highly recommend him to someone else!!

Christian is a great lawyer. He has helped me and several of my friends with their legal issues. He communicated with me and kept me updated on a regular basis. He always clearly explained my options but let me make the final choices. He always supported me no matter what path I decided. He was a great advocate for me and I was impressed with his skills and composure in and out of the courtroom. Before I read this review I looked at the other ones on the page and I can’t believe what I read. Frankly, I think other reviewers are lying and blaming their lawyer for problems they caused themselves

I hired Christian to handle my custody case. For the year and a half that I had him on retainer, he completely refused to meet face to face at all outside of hearings and insisted on emails and phone calls to communicate. Many important details in my case got ignored by him and it quickly became clear that he was trying to rush through a deal and be done with things rather than doing what was best for me. The deal he talked me into left me with 2/3 of my net income going to my ex and the other 1/3 going to gas to handle all the transportation (1300 miles a month, just for child exchanges). Once
