About Christen
I am a lawyer who will listen to your concerns and desires for your family law matter. I promote settlement and uncontested matters wherever possible, to keep your costs and emotional involvement to a minimum. I treat my clients like people, not file numbers, and I strive to keep you informed about the proceedings and what will happen next in your matter. When settlement and conciliation cannot be achieved, I will fight for you in court as an aggressive advocate.
Call today to schedule your initial phone consultation at no charge. One hour office consultations available. Flat fee plans available on particular matters. Payment plans available upon approval. All credit cards accepted.
