Krista had to come clean up the mess that my past attorneys had left me in. She is educated in psych. and family law, so she truly understands and is compassionate to the cases she takes. Very friendly, very professional, and I have had the pleasure/ been working with her for years now and she has always quickly responded to all my questions as well as gave a straight-forward and thorough answer. She’s great representation, a woman of justice and honor, honesty, family, compassion and kindness. I am blessed to have found such an attorney!

After my disabled son’s wife filed for divorce and exploited his impairments by tricking him into signing all community property to herself - as his Power of Attorney I retained counsel. After six months of her deceptive/deterrent tactics - despite being sanctioned $1500 for them - we switched lawyers in December 2021. We retained Krista based on all of the 5-star reviews about her successfully fighting for other clients; but after ten months of giving her the benefit of the doubt, and wanting to avoid starting over with a third attorney, we ended up having a zero-star experience.
She did disclose that a few upcoming medical procedures might slow progress, but they caused major delays and seriously compromised her performance.
Due to COVID, she was working from home with no staff. Lacking support, her communications with us and the petitioner were mostly via informal emails which were often delayed. There were also significant enough errors in emails to the petitioner, that I began drafting them for accuracy myself so she could copy/paste and send them.
Due to the thousands resulting from the petitioner’s non-compliance, I told Krista that I wanted to ask for legal fees in the settlement - but she said we shouldn’t since the petitioner didn’t have an attorney, and a judge would see it as bullying.
When it came to making timely repairs to the neglected marital home to maximize profit and list it during a sellers-market bubble, Krista kept making allowances for the petitioner’s ongoing deterrent tactics, which postponed our ability to list it until the market was on the decline - diminishing potential proceeds.
Once there was an offer and a closing date set for the end of September 2022, a critical document requiring my son’s signature was emailed to her at the end of August 2022; but with only a few days til closing, our panicked real estate broker was asking where it was. When I called her about it, Krista found and forwarded it to us [with no apology for the oversight or stress/inconvenience], and we had to scramble to get it to the buyer’s broker in time.
After the sale of the house, she rescheduled a phone appointment last minute - only to no-show us at the re-scheduled time! When she missed calling by 15 minutes, I texted but got no reply. At the half-hour point, I called and left a voicemail, but she didn't call back until a few hours later. With no apology, she said that the appointment didn’t show up on her calendar, that she had been at the Verizon store all morning, so could we reschedule again! At this point, I terminated her services.
Since the majority of her 5-star reviews included her then assistant and go back to 2014 - I am posting this to save others from the frustration, stress, expense, and lost time that we experienced.

Ms. Geddes practices law by manipulating the courts with theatrics and misdirection. She got her law degree from a night school that isn't even accredited by the American Bar Association and it shows. Based on the timeframe in which she got her degree, Ms. Geddes became an attorney for the sake of her own child custody case and it appears that she coasts on this accolade instead of doing legitimate work. I will be doing everything in my power to have her disbarred.

She did a great job with my case, stayed in contact and handled everything very humanely.

Krista gave me some guidance on pursuing compensation for a vehicle rear ending me. She was thorough and I felt really prepared when talking with the insurance company. I would feel confident hiring her if I needed legal help in the future.

Krista is a very intelligent attorney with a heart for her cases. She took on our very sensitive custody case and wasn't going to settle for the status quo. She fought for the best interest of the child and we believed saved a life.

Christa was a real fighter and built a business on defending the little guy. Unfortunately she has forgotten where she has came from and sold out to the alliance of butte county lawyers and courtworkers.These guys buy and sell people and their outcomes with no regard to people's lives and family. Shame on you Christa even after we paid VERY well, I built you a gate and lent your family our 2013 van which you WRECKED and never paid for. You still sold out?

I love Krista and Emmily. Krista has such a big heart and really fights for what's right. Rooney really screw me over and I was about to give up witch was tearing me up inside. Then I was given her number. She was a god send. With her I actually have a fighting chance. I wish I could give her a million star rating.

There will never be enough stars to rate our attorney Krista and her assistant Emily. This is the 3rd Lawyer we have had to hire and the last we will ever hire. They actually care about you and your family. They are incredibly intelligent people and have hard working ethics beyond compare. Money is not their main objective, they genuinely care for what is right and take all the stress of such tragic circumstances that people fall under, and shoulder it for you! Loving kind caring are not words that usually describe lawyers - not in this case. But you are still hiring the most competitive agressive and super intelligent people I've ever met ! All I can say is thank GOD for them. They have definitely been a gift to my world!
