Juvenile/Dependency, Family Law

About:

When I started my own office in 2002 it was my goal to pursue the practice of law with a "hands on" approach. Every case that comes into my office is handled from start to finish by me personally. I have made it my mission to offer the type of representation my clients can depend on by knowing that I am working hard for them every step of the way. I limit the number of cases my office takes on to ensure that each person who has retained my services also receives the full attention of my staff. My practice focuses on Child Custody, Divorce and other Family Law matters. I was Editor In Chief of the Journal of Juvenile Law, University of La Verne Law Review in 2001-2002. I previously served as President of the Western San Bernardino County Bar Association 2009/2010. I taught a Bar Preparation course as an adjunct professor at the University of La Verne College of Law 2011-2012. I pride myself on working diligently to assist my clients in every way possible. I am straightforward and will communicate with you honestly about your case every step of the way.

"I was very fortunate that Attorney Christine D. Thielo was able to take on my case, which involved a divorce and a complicated custody situation. I had done my research and was determined to find the best professional representation, as my career, livelihood, and the possibility of incarceration were all at stake, along with the prospect of losing my son. On the day I went to court, I happened to see Attorney Thielo in action, as she was litigating a case before mine. Although I didn’t know her personally at that time, I was highly impressed with the way she presented her case to the judge and the professionalism she displayed. After she left the courtroom, I had my adult son ask her for a business card. To my surprise, it was Attorney Christine D. Thielo. I had already consulted with several attorneys and was not impressed; I was reluctant to hire just anyone, as I had too much on the line. Being an educated professional, I knew I needed an attorney with extensive courtroom experience, integrity, and expertise in Family Law. Above all, I wanted someone who would represent my values, ensuring the opposing counsel would not perceive me as having weak representation. Attorney Thielo is a no-nonsense attorney who is well-respected among her peers. My case included multiple DCSF reports, involvement from a psychologist, a court-appointed attorney for my son, and various allegations from a vengeful, now ex-wife. Before Attorney Thielo took on my case, I only had random visitations with my son, limited to occasional holidays and weekends. However, once the case concluded, I gained 50% physical and legal custody, alternating holidays, splitting summers, and most importantly, all allegations against me were dropped. If you have a Family Law case and need straightforward, honest answers—as well as representation from a respected attorney—I highly recommend scheduling a consultation with Christine Thielo."

"I cannot thank Christine Thielo and her team enough for the incredible support and expertise they provided during one of the most emotional and important times in my life. Gaining permanent guardianship of my grandchildren was not only legally complex, but deeply personal—and Ms. Thielo handled every step with compassion, professionalism, and unwavering dedication. She was always clear, responsive, and patient, making sure I understood every detail and felt confident in the process. Thanks to their hard work and advocacy, my grandchildren are now safe, secure, and thriving in a loving home. If you’re looking for a family law attorney who truly cares and knows how to get results, I highly recommend Christine Thielo."

"I was very very pleased with Christine Thielo. She was very aggressive and most of all, she handles all her cases her self which made it very easy to communicate with her. Christine was my second lawyer, cause I fired Paul Eads in Covina. I would highly recommend Christine Thielo to my friends or family. She knows what she is doing and her years of experience show it. Thank You Jesse"

"I cannot recommend Christine highly enough for her outstanding legal services during my custody battle. She played a crucial role in helping me navigate a challenging situation with my ex-wife, who made seeing my kids quite difficult. Christine’s expertise and dedication truly proved that the system does recognize and support fit fathers, providing hope for those in similar situations. Thanks to her efforts, we secured more than just joint custody; my kids now live with my current wife and I, and we were granted sole legal custody in the end. Christine helped us prepare thoroughly before the hearing, ensuring that everything went smoothly and without unnecessary stress. Her professionalism and patience were invaluable throughout the process. Whenever I struggled to understand any aspect of the case, Christine took the time to explain things clearly, making sure I felt confident and informed. If you’re looking for a compassionate and skilled lawyer, look no further than Christine. She made a significant difference in my life and the lives of my children, and I am forever grateful for her support!"

"Christine is an honest, considerate and smart attorney. I met with her a year prior to retaining her services. She was blunt, honest and to the point in informing that my custody case was not a strong one and advised me about what needed to happen in my son's circumstances so that I would have a stronger case. Fast forward a year. My son's situation with his mother got worse and a little dangerous. I met with Christine and she took on the case. As a Dad I wasn't sure if the Court would grant my request for more custody as my son wanted to live with me and his stepmom. Christine went to work on my family's behalf and was able to negotiate and agreement that benefited my son. My son now lives with his stepmon and I 80% of the time. He is happy and thriving in his new environment. Through out the case Christine was always in communication with me and was very accessible. Kept me posted on what was going on and always gave me advise that was focused on the best interest of my son. I definitely would recommend her services to anyone, but especially Dad's needing legal help in custody matters. Thanks Christine."
