WHY CHRISTIAN
What sets this practice apart.
Dual Licensure: California & México
One of very few attorneys in the Imperial Valley licensed to practice in both the United States and Mexico. This means direct representation on both sides of the border — not referrals to a second attorney.
Fully Bilingual Practice
Every consultation, document, and court appearance is available in English and Spanish. Christian is also a court-certified translator in Baja California, Mexico.
Straight Answers
No legal jargon, no evasion, no handing you off to a paralegal. Christian communicates directly with every client and provides honest assessments — even when the answer isn't what you want to hear.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Questions people ask before reaching out.
"How much does a consultation cost?"
Consultation fees depend on the complexity of your situation. When you request a consultation, Christian's office will confirm the fee before scheduling. No surprises.
"My case involves both the U.S. and Mexico — can one attorney handle that?"
Yes. Christian is licensed in both California and Mexico and regularly handles cases that cross the border — binational divorce, cross-border custody, international estate planning, and Hague Convention proceedings.
"Prefiero hablar en español — ¿es posible?"
"Claro que sí. Christian habla español de manera nativa y es perito traductor certificado por el Consejo de la Judicatura en Mexico. Todo el proceso —consultas, documentos y comunicación en audiencias— se maneja en español."
Your situation deserves a real conversation.
