"You don't know, until you know. Christina stepped in to fight for what belongs to my business and the assets we have created, before I even knew I was losing a critical battle. She foresaw our challenges and proactively helped me to address them. More importantly she helped me to understand why our product/s should be protected and how to protect them. Her continued work on our behalf has allowed me to relax and continue building the business, while she works to ensure our long-term protection and success. I am enormously grateful to Christina for her guidance."
"I was offered a project that was bigger than anything I had worked on in the past. I was excited, but also nervous. I have friends who have made mistakes in contracts that cost them significantly, and I didn't want that to be me. I asked a friend of mine who is a lawyer, and he couldn't have recommended Christina more highly. The best part of working with Christina was feeling confident that I was going to end up with a contract that protected me and was fair for everyone. She’s excellent at what she does. Christina helped me sort out exactly what I needed and what was most important. Not only did this help when she wrote the agreed upon contract, but it was an indispensable foundation from which to negotiate the contract. There were a couple sticking points in the negotiations, and she helped me navigate those brilliantly. It's great knowing that my intellectual property is protected, my royalties are secure, and that everyone is happy with how the deal closed. If you need someone to represent you in a deal that’s big and important to you, Christina is the person to call."
