Christina Lana Shine, Esq.

I'm thankful for all the ways Christina taught, showed and yes, sometimes carried, me to honesty, patience and trust thru my divorce. As I sit here and reflect, many months after retaining Christina and with my divorce finalized, I know choosing Christina to represent me was the single most important decision I've made that has affected not only my future happiness and wellbeing, but my daughter's as well.

Christina was right. She was right that the process demands honesty, openness, sincerity and a deep reckoning of what's important to you in order to achieve a good outcome. Even in the times when I lost focus or faith, Christina never wavered. She fought for me every step of the way and against every new challenge, believed in me, and made sure I knew where I stood as each step in the process unfolded. Again, she was right. Right about how long it would take. Right about what we'd face from opposing counsel. And right about each case taking on a life and unique flow of its own.

I never once questioned Christina's expertise or experience. Never was there a conversation, issue or new bit of court drama that surprised her or caught her flat-footed. She always had answers, not only from a technical, legal perspective, but from her own vast experience as well. She communicated effectively and vigorously not only with me, but, more importantly, to the court and opposing counsel. They knew Christina had my back, and they knew she wasn't about to roll over if and when the going got tough.

I honestly would have saved myself a lot of anxiety had I been able to more fully embrace the process early on and lean more on Christina's knowledge and experience. I, thankfully, finally saw the light, but like most people at the beginning of a divorce, I was wrapped up in a lot of unhealthy emotions. Christina showed an immense amount of patience with me, never once made me feel like I wasn't heard, and not only advised me expertly, but also took the time to explain the ins and outs of what we were planning and proposing. Her commitment to my case and to making sure I understood why we were pushing for certain outcomes or decisions helped me to see the bigger picture and ultimately contributed greatly to my very fair and positive outcome.

At the end of the whole process, what sticks out most in my mind is this - Christina was right. She was the right choice, and she did right by me and my daughter. I count her amongst the very small group of people I trust implicitly and without hesitation.

You couldn't ask for nor find a more qualified, dedicated and proficient lawyer to represent you and see you to the other side of this process. When mine looked darkest, Christina lead me thru. And now that I'm on the other side, happy, content and looking forward to my next chapter, all I can say is Thank You.

If you're reading this, do yourself a favor and let Christina help you navigate your way out of whatever situation you're in and to a much better place on your other side. She never let me down and she certainly won't let you down either.

Unprofessional, unorganized and ignorant. Made my divorce a complete disaster. Didn’t complete the job and expected me to follow up with the courts to ensure proper compliance . Told me to settle for less to avoid trial. Gave me horrible advice! What an absolute joke!

My niece and nephew are with a man that BEATS them because this " childrens lawyer" gave my sisters kids to him because he lives in a nice house( that my sister paid half for but this pig and his " lawyers" screwed her out of )has money to drag the courts, andhis lawyer is buddies with the judge .
This "wonan" talked to the kids 2x! In 2 and a half years. She told the judge to give them to the guy that abused his wife, hits his little boy so hard that he stops crying, screams at these kids, tells them their stupid. He works all day 6 days a week and has to hire people when my sister was the custodial parent their whole lives.
Christine shine is for her pocketbook or the male clients apparently
