Client Reviews
"We've worked with Kristin on a few projects, now. We continue to be happy with her work and communication style. I'd certainly recommend working with her to others."
"Kristin was knowledgeable voice in my corner, making sure I understood my options every step of the way. I would not hesitate to use Kristin again for any legal help I may need. She is wonderful."
"Kristin is amazing - most notably, her due diligence to look into matters we did not consider before. It was obvious she did some research about our background when we first met that allowed her to customize her proposal. We thought that was great. We've hired her for three more projects since!"
"Kristin was very fast to attend to our needs of the lease review and pointed out some great talking points to bring up with the leasing agent. I highly recommend Kristin to anyone needing advice and was very quick to get an appointment set up to keep the leasing process timely. Due to our great advice and counsel, I was able to get clauses amended on my lease which greatly benefit myself and my business. Thank you very much!!! :)"
"Kristin was easy to work with. She made sure we were asking for the right services to be performed, and moved quickly to complete the work."
"Very efficient and quick responder!"
