"I called the Law Office of Cristi M. Lowe and I had the pleasure to speaking with Josh, Cristi assistant. Josh was so helpful and knowledgeable. All the questions I asked about the FL forms he was able to answer and clarify. Josh is an amazing person who loves his job and enjoys helping people. This says a lot about the law firm and lawyer. They really care on helping the people. Thank you Josh ❤️"

"I have nothing but great things to say about Cristin Lowe and her staff. Easy to work with, very knowledgeable, easy to communicate with, and I felt very well taken care of. I never thought the legal side of a divorce could be such a positive experience, yet it was!"

"I hired Cristin for a follow up case to my divorce from over 10 years ago and after signing a one sided agreement given the circumstances needing something ASAP, paying the retainers and finalizing the case in court which went as well as could be expected and closed over 9 months ago and over $10K later and another retainer of $7K sitting in my account, I cannot get the courtesy of a response. At one point they called and they told me that the case was done and that they would like to close the account and I asked what if we need more follow up. I was told that it was unlikely given the settlement and that we could always reopen if needed. I told them that is fine to please proceed. That was well over 6 months ago with numerous follow ups from me to no avail and with my account still not settled. Throughout our dealings response times, that is if they responded, were horrendous and I have not been able to get them to return calls, emails, messages in their system or anything. Extremely unscrupulous and unprofessional; no other way to put it sadly. Having to deal with divorce and court issues is stressful enough and the stress has been exponentially worst being stuck in this situation with an unscrupulous lawyer is something else all together! I called last Friday, February 25th, 2022 and I was told by Josh that he will make sure someone from the office would call me on Monday February 28th. It is now March 4th, still nothing. I sent a message in their system and took a screen shot and pasted it to an email chain of endless follow ups and sent it to Cristin and her staff Corina on Wednesday March 2nd, 2022 and no surprise at all to not have received a response. Now, I am posting reviews on as many sites as I can as well as reporting to BBB. Next, I have to take my lawyer, Cristin Lowe, to court to settle this with more stress and mental anguish. How sad is that? Kevin"

"HIRED Cristin...What a HUGE COSTLY MISTAKE! DO NOT USE CRISTIN LOWE...EVER! I hired her in March 2021 for an extremely simple, non-contested, EASY Legal Separation from my husband. (We're still married but not "been together" for over a decade but live part time. get along, vacation together, raised our boys, and a fantastic platonic fun relationship). She did an initial consult for 400 an hour. That already should have been my red warning flag I chose to ignore! I hired her. I literally NEVER HEARD from her again! Not even being exaggerated. She filed the initial separation in S.F. Superior Court and there is a 6 month wait period in CA. Early November 2021 (6 month wait period ended). Did I get my Legal Separation Agreement that I needed so I could then get the QDRO's done and all filed to Superior Court? NO. Mind you this was a NON CONTESTED, AGREEABLE Legal Separation. All we needed was the Agreement so then QDROs could be completed by a QDRO Attorney I already consulted with. Tick Tock...month rolls on....I tried contacting her. She committed CLIENT ABANDONMENT! December. 2021...January 2022...still NOTHING. February 2022...nope...March 2022...nil. In meantime, my Separation Agreement could've been done MONTHS ago. I would've already been paid out by the retirement 401/457 of my husband as my settlement for 21 years of marriage. I wasn't going after any spouse support, there's no custody issue, no CALPERS pension so this was quick. My husband is getting more impatient as months pass because of the legal separation, there is "hold" on the accounts so he can't contribute to his retirement accounts which brings his "net" TAXABLE income bracket higher. Her long delay not doing anything, we both have lost THOUSANDS (15k combined) in our accounts which impacts me greatly since its MY FINAL SETTLEMENT with my husband and I would've had the cash before all the losses if she DID HER JOB I HIRED HER FOR! She NEVER RESPONDED to ANY email after initial hiring. Her paralegal kept saying I have it on her calendar to "catch up" and hopefully you'll get your agreement soon. March 2022 rolls by and I had enough! It's already been a FULL YEAR since the initial filing of our separation in Superior Court. All I need is the Legal Separation Agreement. This isn't rocket science! There aren't lawyers involved on both sides, there's no arguments with my spouse. VERY AMICABLE. I waited 5 MONTHS for a simple painless, non-complicated Legal Separation Agreement. I terminated her at end of March 2022. Did she apologize? NO. Did she even bother to try to explain herself? NO. I hired another attorney April 1, 2022 who completed my Legal Separation Agreement in 3 DAYS! Got my QDRO's done right after and within a week I had everything needed. Cristin Lowe didn't even KNOW that my husband's 401/457 company Mission Square are managers just like Fidelity or TRowe Price. They aren't even CALPERS or have anything to do with CALPERS which I already told her I wasn't going to touch his pension, so her filing a joinder in Superior Court for CALPERS in 2021 was stupid and unnecessary and cost me fees I didn't have to pay to begin with. (She clearly didn't know what she was doing). She will initially give "great advice" and be good in the consultation but after that? YOU'LL NEVER HEAR FROM HER AGAIN. NOT ONE UPDATE about your case, not one email to let you know the progress or next step. She should've had my Legal Separation Agreement READY TO GO and COMPLETED right when the 6 month wait period was over. I had to call her office to make an appointment just to discuss the financial arrangement my husband I agreed upon. That is HER JOB TO CONTACT ME TO GET THE DETAILS so she could FINISH the legal separation agreement she didn't even bother to start. Junk attorney. Cristin Lowe is the absolute worst and too expensive for the little she did. Charging for every email or phone call that you're forced to make to try to get any answer on the progress of your case. Horrid. DO NOT HIRE HER. YOU WILL REGRET IT."

"I needed some help with some legal forms. Ms. Lowe charged me $400 to talk to her and a $2500 retainer. After months of me following up with her office and begging for an update, or an explanation, I got nothing but promises that were not met. When I fired her and demanded my retainer back her office stopped responding to me altogether. After 18 days I haven't even heard an acknowledgment or apology, and I certainly haven't gotten my retainer back. The delays have exposed me to thousands in other expenses and a lot of additional risk. I have since hired another attorney who was able to give me all my documents and instructions within 20 hours of our first consult, and it only cost me $450. My trust was abused and I have opened a Bar complaint. Update. After a month of holding money our contract promises to return and getting the BBB involved, she didn't respond to them either. "This message is in regard to your complaint submitted on 9/30/2021 against Law Office Of Cristin M. Lowe. Your complaint was assigned ID 15924404. The Better Business Bureau has made two attempts to contact the business regarding your complaint. We regret to inform you that we have not received a response at this time.." SAVE YOURSELF! STAY AWAY FROM CRISTIN LOWE!"
