Professionalism, kindness, and determination

“When my daughter was born she was born into a family of two teen parents who’s relationship was rocky and bending late senior year of high school , something like fighting for equal custody and time with my daughter was something I didn’t think and was hoping wasn’t necessary but when that painful decision had to be made my parents and I found Christine Thielo. From the very start of this lengthy experience of court days and heartache Christine was there during every step of the way giving us her family court knowledge and guidance from showing me what to expect when I first started asking for time to see my daughter, what the hours and days might look like to the point where I was able to see my daughter half the week and have nights where she would stay over at my house. Christine has been committed to my struggles and would do all in her power to win me equal physical and legal custody over my soon to be 3 year old daughter. In the court room Christine would fight for what I would ask for and negotiate the best outcome for me if negotiations were possible to avoid a costly court session and if no reasonable negotiation could come through then Christine would take it upon the judge and make a case for us. Christine would also help us find ways to cut the costs which we greatly appreciated but ultimately what I’m thankful for is her professionalism, kindness, and determination. For now I have equal legal and physical custody. It was a bit of a lengthy battle but we appreciate what you did for us Christine and thank you very much for representing me. As my daughter gets older I have all my faith that you will continue to support me in what might come next and continue to fight for me.”

  • Christine is an incredible, dedicated, and very impressive lawyer!

    “Christine is an incredible, dedicated, and very impressive lawyer. I came to her with a complicated, unusual case involving multiple attorneys, case workers, and very combative parties, and she was aggressive, knowledgable, and honest about the possibilities and outcomes. She was able to gain cooperation with the other attorneys, speak up to a judge on our behalf, and excavate relevant and obscure case law and present it honestly and fairly to support our case. I cannot offer her enough praise, or find the words to recommend her as highly as she deserves!"”

  • She went above and beyond for me

    If I could give Christine 10 stars I would. I can’t say enough nice things about her. I came in crying and she calmed me down during my long drawn out divorce (because of ex). She took care of everything and more. I got the settlement I want and much more. She went above and beyond for me. If you want a kick butt lawyer give her a call. She is very knowledgeable about the law and helps you every step of the way. She goes way above and beyond for you. Thanks Christine.

  • Christine Thielo is not only an amazing attorney but an amazing person as well!

    “Christine Thielo is not only an amazing attorney but an amazing person as well. I felt as though she genuinely cared for my situation and worked hard to get me the best possible outcome, which she did! She represented me in my DV and child custody case and I couldn’t have asked for better. I came to her with quite a bit of history and just one month prior to my next court date. She put the time and effort to review and become completely familiar with my entire case in order to adequately represent me, which she did a great job doing. She explains very thoroughly every option that is available to you and is very honest with each outcome. She is experienced, knowledgeable, professional, and tough! She stands her ground and is not intimidated by anyone or anything. She, or her assistant Linda who is also amazing, gets back to you almost immediately. She went above and beyond my expectations, I can’t describe how grateful and thankful I am for her hard work and dedication.”

    “I hired Christine Thielo because she had great reviews on Yelp and I needed representation for my child custody case. Christine specializes in family law and hiring her was the best decision I ever made during a very emotional time in my life. Her follow through was very precise, her professionalism and legal advice was peace of mind for my case. What I really like about this attorney is she takes fewer cases so she is available every step of the way. All my calls and emails where quickly returned and I was always informed about the legal steps throughout the process. If you want great legal advice and in need of an attorney that specializes in Family Law then I would definitely recommend Christine Thielo.”

  • She's a warrior and puts 110% into it

    “First of all, hiring Christine was the best thing that happened to me. As a single father, I was overwhelmed with my situation and I needed help. When walking into Christine's office, I explained my situation and Christine's response is very honest and did not sugarcoat. Walking into court Christine was by my side the whole time. For instance, as she represented me in court, I saw the passion that she has for what she does and did an amazing job that instantly calmed my nerves. As a result, I got more for what I asked for. Have 50/50 custody of my son with no child support. She's a warrior and puts 110% into it. I highly recommend Christine Thielo.”

  • Would definitely go back to Christine for any legal services in the future.

    “Christine really stepped in and helped to straighten out my case, turning what at first seemed to be a potentially bad situation into the total opposite. I had made some uneducated legal decisions regarding my custody and visitation rights regarding my daughter, and Christine was able to essentially clean the slate so I could start fresh. She is very knowledgeable of the subject matter and was very flexible in working with my schedule. Would definitely go back to Christine for any legal services in the future.”

  • Christine took the bull from the horns right from the get go

    Christine is the type of lawyer you imagine in a movie, she comes in and takes charge. We visited several lawyers before coming to her and it seemed like all lawyers would give us the same spill regarding family law and never really took time to listen to our concerns. Christine took the bull from the horns right from the get go and told me to hire her and man let me tell you if I hadn't things would be so much different for us. Now, I will never go to court without her. Spend the money and get the results this is not a matter you want to mess around with.

  • Christine is a genuine character who cares about her clients

    “Christine helped navigate me through the repercussions of a poor choice I made about a year and a half ago to enter into a marriage. Christine made the process clear to me and made herself available to take my oftentimes last-minute appointments. She clarified the outcome of my divorce and did so with ease and grace. I look up to Christine in a lot of ways, she asks poignant questions and time spent with her is always effective and rewarding. Christine is a genuine character who cares about her clients and I would recommend her to any of my colleagues and family in a heartbeat should they need professional advice or service from an attorney.”

  • I am beyond grateful for her outstanding service during the most difficult time of my life

    “Attorney Christine D. Thielo represented me in a child custody case. Attorney Thielo was both professional and compassionate. Most importantly Attorney Thielo had thorough knowledge of my case and it showed during court appearances. During court appearances I was always confident that attorney Thielo would be well prepared to represent me before the court. Furthermore, Attorney Thielo always answered my questions, responded to emails promptly and always found the time to guide me or provide professional advice throughout the court process. For those who are unfamiliar in dealing with lawyers, getting a response or a returned phone call from a law office without an appointment once you have paid your retainer is nearly impossible. I can attest that Attorney Thielo and her staff addressed every question and reassured me through the entire process until the end. I found Attorney Thielo to be someone of high character. I am beyond grateful for her outstanding service during the most difficult time of my life.”

  • Thank you Christine for everything

    “I was in a long, tiring, money consuming battle to gain rights back for my daughter for almost 5 years, it tore down my world. I felt helpless with no other options but “time”. When I found attorney Christine Thielo, she offered me solutions that my previous lawyer said I needed to wait on. I persisted & continue to follow Christine’s directions & being under the scope, she and I successfully walked out with joint custody with with my daughter & I have her more than ever now & even currently it isn’t enough for my daughter! But she is happier than ever to experience the things that a dad can give his child, there were allot of people hurt in the process. Endless back & fourth trips to court, the harassment we received, the pain it caused ; subjected to the sunshine peaking through the clouds for us now, my daughters mom & I have the best co-parenting relationship now & it’s the biggest break I’ve received. Thank you Christine for everything you’ve done for our family🙏🏽 I can write a Harry Potter sized book on the battle, this is the short version.

  • There is no one as genuine as Christine and she is genuinely good at her job

    “Christine is a fantastic lawyer who knows her stuff. She helped me with a divorce case about 6 months ago and helped organize all of the paperwork that I needed quickly and efficiently. She was always available for a last-minute appointment, ensured that all my needs were met, and the information on the divorce procedures was clear. There is no one as genuine as Christine and she is genuinely good at her job. I thank her for guiding me through a hard time in my life (and a poor choice) and for making the process painless.

  • "Detail oriented and focused"

    “Christine Thielo was an excellent attorney to handle my divorce and custody case. She was detail focused and really took the time to work with me to build the strongest case possible.

  • I highly recommend her and will absolutely hire her again if necessary.

    Christine was the attorney I wish I had from the beginning. She is everything you would expect from a great attorney: professional, respectful, responsive, informative, and direct. She also really cared, and invested herself in the case, which is not something I can say about previous attorneys I’ve had.

    After getting nowhere for years, I finally got a huge win in parenting time thanks to Christine. She really helped navigate the messiness of the case and made sure I understood everything she presented. She helped keep me focused on the big picture despite the emotional roller coaster the whole process can be. I highly recommend her and will absolutely hire her again if necessary.

    “I was looking for an experienced lawyer who knew family law and that's exactly what I found. She is knowledgable and answered all my questions. She's calm and polite when speaking to me and a beast in the court room. Her office always got to back to me promptly anytime I called or emailed. She helped me in a very stressful time. My child is my whole life. And when my ex tried to get full custody she did what needed to be done for my child. She put my child's needs first and was very fair in helping us come to an agreement. I would highly recommend her to anyone going through a child custody dispute or divorce.”
