Kristen was referred to me by another attorney and I am so glad I called. I needed to do an appeal for a long term disability insurance claim through my employer. She has been fantastic. I get regular updates and she takes time to explain in a way I can understand. I am so grateful for her and I highly recommend.

Kristen consistently goes above and beyond for her clients. She communicated updates every step of the way. She provided exceptional feedback on all questions asked, and it is evident she has great passion for her work. Not only does her passion show through in her excellent case result, but her genuine concern for clients throughout the process was most memorable, I will gladly use her services again and will refer her to friends and family with out hesitation. She helped me and my family through a very stressful process .I highly recommend her.

Kristen was great from the beginning. I went to her because I had gotten an unexpectedly large bill from a medical group for a work comp related injury. I was worried to file it as work comp for many reasons so I backed out of it in the beginning and tried to just have my insurance cover everything, but it didn't work out that way and all of the sudden I owed more money that I could imagine in doctor bills. On top of it the bill went to a debt collector, I was terrified that my life would be ruined due to my credit score being obliterated from the situation.
Kristen took my case and helped me through the entire process. The case froze with the debt collector and my credit was never affected. She kept me updated on the process and told me what to expect throughout. She was also kind and comforting when I was scared. She ended up closing the case for me and It turned out better than what I was expecting. I am so grateful to Kristen for helping me through this terrible ordeal. Thank you Kristen!

I was severely injured at work and my recovery has been well over a year. At one point doctors determined I needed a second surgery which the insurance company denied. Kristen fought for the surgery to be approved. She spent a great deal of time answering questions and preparing me so that I was comfortable with giving my testimony. Her conduct in the courtroom was exemplary. She was prepared, confident, relentless and succeeded in winning my case. Kristen has stuck with me and my family every step of the way. Without their help, I would not have received the medical care I needed or compensation benefits I deserved. Her concern for my situation was genuine and she was transparent and respectful of my priorities. I would highly recommend her to everyone I know.

On July 18 2017 I Fell at work breaking both bones in my left wrist on July 19 or 20 Work Comp called to tell me they had denied my claim.. Had surgery on the 21st not knowing for sure how I was going to pay this bill ... On Sunday the 23 I set out to educate myself on how to find a Comp Attorney I had visited a few web sites just reading what they did trying to get some answers I ended up on web site for Fields Law Firm I clicked on the place to ask a question and a Attorney by the name of Steve Fields popped on and I explained what my problem was .. he asked if he could call me I said yes we spoke and he said I had a good case. And he would turn it over to one of the firms Comp Attorneys. And this was where Kristen Gyolai came to my rescue and took over my case she walked me thru what was going to happen .. It was like a weight was lifted off me.. My case is now settled I received more of a settlement then I thought I would my medical bills are payed and more then anything I have a piece of mind ... I can not say thank enough to the Fields Law Office and my Attorney Kristen Gyolai and Paralegal Yelena Leonovich for all their help.. They were the BEST!

I hired Fields Law and was assigned Kristen for my work comp case. The case was long and drawn out like most. Kristen is a very nice person but I wish communication was better. Most cases are long with lots of waiting involved, so a communication goes along way in making a client feel better. I also feel like my company got away with a lot of things, (late payments, taking longer than the allotted time to send paper work etc). She could have been more aggressive and not so passive about it. I didnt get the feeling was fighting for me.
There were times she forget important factors in the case and I had to remind her about things. That was very frustrating!
All in all she did an okay job.

During one of the most difficult times of my life Kristen was always kind and supportive. She even listened to my ramblings. You don't know how much a listening ear or a kind word means until you truly need one. Kristen was always very responsive. I liked the fact that I got to talk to a person when I called. After my first call with Kristen I just knew who I wanted to represent me in one of the most important moments of my life.
Any previous interactions I've had with lawyers have not been good, painful sometimes. Not even once was I frustrated or feeling discouraged throughout this process.
I knew I had a claim that should have been approved. Kristen provided the case law to support the appeal and sent the message to MetLife that I wasn't going to go away. Fields knew the correct way to fight the bully. Thanks to Kristen and her amazing team I was approved for long term disability.

I worked with Kristen for over a year on a somewhat complicated workers compensation case. She was there every step of the way to answer questions and handle anything that came up. All of her hard work ended in a favorable outcome. Her paralegal Yelena was awesome as well. Always prompt in her communication and knowledgeable. I would work with Kristen and Fields Law without hesitation.

Due to a mistake in paper work at the doctors office, I lost my disability after being on it for 10 years with worsening health conditions from the onset of disability. I contacted Fields Law Offices who put me with Kristen Gyolai. She was a great help in contacting the various number of doctors and even when the insurance company went against their own doctors report she fought to help restore my benefits. I was already in poor health and the added stress fighting with the insurance company was not helping my situation. I had lost more than 1/2 my income with very large medical bills each month; I was at a loss. She took a lot of stress of me and resolved this issue most promptly. I check with other attorneys/firms and I preferred her to the others her caring disposition is genuine as well as her staffs. They often keep in touch with me through out the years. Their rates were the most reasonable. I know if I call with a question or concern I am going to get an answer very quickly. I have trust issues with a lot of people but Kristen and her assistant Jennifer I feel very comfortable talking to and they show interest in resolving any concerns I have. They are good knowledgeable people and I would recommend them to anyone I know.

I hired Kristen after getting hurt at work. I worked at the same company for 18 years and after I was injured they tried to push me out and after never having a bad review they started finding things that I was doing wrong. Kristen fought for me and got me a good settlement and I was able to start a new job and get on with my life. I would recommend her to anyone who is getting treated badly after getting hurt at work.
