Kienan was my attorney when I came forward about the sexual abuse that I experienced in graduate school. The perpetrator was a faculty member at a nationally acclaimed university who was also teaching at an elite boarding school. Kienan began working with me at the beginning of the #metoo movement, when the process of exposing abusers felt like largely uncharted territory. I had been in contact with other attorneys who prioritized financial gain over my healing process and even threatened to expose my identity when I wasn’t yet ready. In contrast, Kienan approached my case with the highest levels of professionalism and respect. His strong legal acumen, passion for justice, and regard for my healing process as a survivor made me feel safe and confident in an otherwise intimidating situation. Kienan and I worked together over the course of a year and a half, at the pace I needed to go in order to avoid retraumatization. He was always available to answer my questions and offer support. Further, I was greatly aided by his compassionate understanding of the trauma I had experienced as well as his fierce advocacy for bringing healing to survivors and preventing others from being harmed. I highly recommend Kienan Christianson—he helped me reach a place of healing that I hadn’t imagined possible.

Kienan represented me during a really intense custody disagreement between me and my son's father. A friend of mine who previously worked with Kienan recommended him to me, and I couldn't be more grateful. Kienan was professional, knowledgeable and skillful. Not only is he masterful with his knowledge of the law, his people skills will win over any judge's favor due to his courteousness, graciousness, and humility. My son's father was attempting to win full custody, but thanks to Kienan hard work, attention to detail and experience, I was the one who was granted full custody of my son. On top of Kienan's impressive work ethic, he's simply a pleasure to work with. He was always realnwith me yet respectful. He displayed great deals of empathy for me while I was dealing with this really difficult situation. He was also very respectful of my budget, aware that I was receiving help from family to afford his services, he was transparent with the cost of everything ahead of time and was always willing to discuss the pros and cons with me and my family. I can't express enough appreciation for Kienan, and I would definitely hire Kienan again should I need representation again!

Kienan is passionate, driven and detail oriented. He fights tirelessly for others and works incredibly hard for his clients. In my case, Kienan was an excellent communicator and explained the process as well as the rational behind his advice making a very painful process feel much less exhausting. I have referred friends to Kienan as well who had similar praise to offer. I would highly recommend Attorney Christianson.

Kienan handled a sensitive sexual assault case for me back in 2017. I was a wreck and was having a very difficult time dealing with what had happened to me. Kienan, while remaining sensitive also took time out of his schedule to reassure me and remind me of the strength I had. He prepped me for the grueling deposition with the defense attorney and spent hours with me advising and comforting me all at the same time. In court he was fearless, advocating for me and scaring my perpatrator out of his skin. I could not have asked for a better attorney to be by my side. If you are looking for someone to represent you look no further, Kienan is a real gem.
