The Law Offices of Susan E. Christiansen

Supportive Family Law Attorneys

At the Law Offices of Susan E. Christiansen, we believe that our clients deserve to be treated with the utmost courtesy and respect, especially during times of emotional pain and stress. We are not a large, impersonal law firm; we are a small firm that gets to know all clients and works hard on their behalf. Our attorneys attentively listen to our clients’ concerns, thoroughly investigate the relevant law, and find legal solutions that meet their specific needs.

Experienced and Successful

Over many years of work, our attorneys have helped thousands of clients with a variety of services in family law in California. As a measure of our success, many of our cases come from referrals from former clients and other attorneys.

Helping People Around the World

Most clients have legal issues in Contra Costa and Solano Counties, but we can also help people throughout Northern California. Our attorneys assist both residents of the area and people from out of state, and our military family law practice helps service members stationed around the world with all legal issues in Solano and Contra Costa Counties.

Accessible and Responsive to Clients

Our family law and business lawyers believe that part of providing high quality representation is being accessible to our clients when they need to discuss their concerns. We have two offices, in Fairfield and Benicia, which are staffed by two attorneys and a friendly and knowledgeable support staff. When you want information about your case, we will get you that information in a timely manner.

Fair, Firm and Friendly Lawyers

Both of our attorneys, Susan E. Christiansen and Cristin M. Lowe believe the best results can be gained by being "fair, firm and friendly." They fight hard to get their clients what they need, but know that being too aggressive will only work against them. Judges in Contra Costa and Solano Counties know and respect our firm's ability to find solutions that get matters resolved more effectively than with pointless bickering.

Susan E. Christiansen has gained a well-respected reputation in the legal community since beginning her work as a lawyer in 1994. She has been selected to serve as a "beeper judge," responding to police during evenings and weekends when they need authorizations for emergency protective orders and other matters. She has also worked as a judge pro tem in small claims court and family law court.
