I have severe struggles with health conditions and they were extremely considerate in showing compassion with my issues through out the case and did everything needed to guide me in the right direction, I would definitely highly recommend her she is great to work with and her paralegal is also extremely knowledgeable and quick to respond. It's been a pleasure working with you guys. Thank you sincerely."

"I retained Kirsten Wilson and team, with very short notice. Although the allegations were false, it was a very stressful and scary time. The reason I say and team, is because I was told by Amanda to overwhelm them with anything I had and they would sort out what was needed. This required several years of texts, emails and photos. The amount of stuff I sent them, made me feel bad. Yet they made me feel like they appreciated everything I provided. Everyone with the firm, was very professional and most importantly to me, was they made be feel safe and protected during the entire process. Kirsten was able to cut through the mud and made us feel like we never had anything to worry about. Case was dismissed in short order, just an amazing, professional, incredibly organized group of people."

"I cannot speak highly enough of Kirstin Wilson Law and her incredible team of paralegals, Amanda and Nicole. They were an absolute godsend when they took over my case last minute after my previous attorney left his practice. From the moment Kirstin stepped in, I knew I was in good hands. Kirstin's knowledge of NH State and Federal Law is nothing short of impressive. She was able to see through the complexities of my situation and quickly identified how my ex-wife was manipulating the legal system to her advantage. It was like she could read between the lines and anticipate every move before it even happened. Throughout the entire process, Kirstin kept me informed and explained everything thoroughly. Her communication skills are top-notch, and I always felt well-informed and empowered to make the right decisions. The confidence and experience she exudes are truly remarkable. What sets Kirstin apart is her sheer willpower and determination to fight for her clients' freedom and rights. I felt like she was genuinely invested in my case, and that motivated her to go above and beyond to uncover the truth and ensure justice prevailed. If you find yourself in a tough legal situation, and you think no one can find the truth or protect your interests, I can confidently say that Kirstin Wilson Law is the firm you need. They are a powerhouse team, and I am forever grateful for their support during one of the most challenging times of my life. Thank you, Kirstin, Amanda, and Nicole, for your exceptional work! ---Brock K."

"She is one of the most caring lawyers out there. She always had the best interest in mind for me. She would call me on her own time just to see how I was doing. I love how her law firm has an app to maker it easier for her clients to get ahold of her. And if you can't drive or find away to your appointment she will do zoom meetings. She is very truthful and though with her cases. I have never had a lawyer go to the lengths as she has. I would completely suggest her for any of your needs. And she does work out of mass and new Hampshire which you really cant find. I want to thank you Kirsten and the firm that works with her. Joann pirogenia"
