Testimonials

Words cannot express my gratitude for the services provided by Christine and her assistant, Sherie. I found them in the middle of the lowest, darkest period of my life. Christine was a source of stability and sound advice throughout the past year. Her communication was quick and efficient. She listened to my concerns and priorities, provided guidance and direction and a listening ear when I needed one. Both she and Sherie took sincere interest in the well being of myself and my children. She started each conversation asking how I was doing and how my children were doing. They acted professionally and with integrity. They were transparent with all communication with me and the other legal counsel and were also transparent with all financial statements / billings. While my case thankfully ended with a reconciliation of my marriage, I feel beyond blessed that I had the assistance of this team when needed. Highly recommended is an understatement!

Words cannot express how amazing my experience with Christine was!
I came to her after getting royally screwed over by another attorney and just within the short time I was with her she managed to do EVERYTHING I asked that my old attorney office told me I couldn't do!
She was very thorough and communication was excellent.
My divorce was not a fun or easy one to say the least the other half we were dealing with was extremely difficult and she managed to make it all work and come to an agreement with the other party who said multiple times they weren't agreeing to anything. I am now able to move with my kids and provide them the best life possible and I couldn't have done any of it without her!
oh and she listens she gets work done but some days you just need to let it all out.
Again words can never describe how amazing she is!
I highly recommend booking her you will not be sorry.

After searching for an attorney for a contempt case and having no luck with anyone wanting to help me, I finally was referred to Christine who was so incredibly amazing. During our consultation, I had no doubt that I wanted her to represent me. Christine was honest, caring, knowledgeable and very reassuring! I appreciate everything she was able to do for me. Thank you Christine for all the reassurance, and advice you gave me on top of helping resolve this issue. Sherie, was very responsive and I appreciate her communicating with me frequently when asking her for updates on the case.

I 110% recommend Trakas Thornhill for a family law case!

Ms.Christine has been our family attorney for 5 years. Anytime we had questions or a situation occurred she was right there. If you are looking for an attorney who knows what she's doing, is trustworthy and understanding, she is the one. She doesn't sugar coat anything and by her having that approach it helps you as a client grow and better understand your situation rather it's good or bad. Thanks so much for EVERYTHING Ms. Christine. We can't thank you enough.

People are very nice and respectful

Going thru 19+ months of divorce filled with a lawyer's and countless wasted attorney fees from prior attorneys. I'm so glad I finally found Ms. Christine ThornHill. She was able to swiftly cut through all of the legal shenanigans that were occurring and start obtaining immediate results. She is a caring and strategy planner with the end game always in mind. On what is best for the long-term mental health of the children and yourself. I saw firsthand that the legal system stereotypes that most men are automatically bad fathers until proven otherwise, and most women are good mothers unless proven otherwise. Ms. Christina Thornhill understands that concept and also knows the Family Court better than anyone that I've dealt with in the entire state of Florida. So if you want your divorce to come to an end with somebody that you can trust from an attorney that is not in it only for a paycheck but indeed for the best interest of the child and yourself, plus, strictly looking at facts of The scenario. Then there is only one choice. I would highly recommend that only one attorney can do that in Central Florida, and it is Mrs. Christine ThornHill.

Christine Trakas Thornhill is a highly qualified attorney that I will always recommend to anyone who needs a family law lawyer. She was a great asset to me when it came to getting a lot of back child support owed to me by my son's father in my son's senior year of high school. If it wasn't for Christine and how hard she fought for me I do not believe I would have ever received a dime of that money. Thanks to Christine I got every penny he claimed he couldn't pay for years and he paid it all in two years. I will forever be grateful to her. She's a wonderful hard working lawyer who gets the job done!!

Amazing! Friendly! Professional! Went out of her way in every aspect to take care of our family! HIGHLY recommended! We won't ever use another lawyer!

I have known Christine Thornhill for many years. As a law enforcement officer, I worked with her on several cases and throughout the years, I 've seen her aggressiveness and determination to prevail for her clients. She is knowledgeable in the law and knows how it applies to her case. She is dedicated to her clients and most of all, she listens to them and answers their questions without hassle or waiting for weeks to get a call back. There are many attorneys out there to choose from but when you see the caliber of attorney that Christine is and the knowledge she has from years of practicing law, there is no one else I would refer to my friend and family.

Christine helped me navigate the divorce process with patience and an amazing depth of knowledge. She would take the time to answer any questions I had and to make sure I was fully understanding the process. She balanced professionalism, family law expertise, and personal attention to the details of my divorce flawlessly. I highly recommend Christine and her firm Trakas Thornhill, PA.

Walking through divorce was a painful process for me after twenty years of marriage, regardless of it being my decision to initiate the divorce process. What stood out about Attorney Thornhill was her ability to help you see both short and long term perspectives, while removing the emotion out of the process. I was able to sustain my focus, which was the health and well being of my/our children. I was able to shed the things that were not important and move forward with a well created divorce with minimal tension. In fact, the process was so smooth, I drove to my divorce hearing with my former spouse. We were able to cultivate a healthy co-parenting process and I believe much of that was because of Attorney Thornhill's ability to navigate the process with top notch skill sets. I highly recommend her services because she is a leading authority within this discipline.

Christine is tenacious and compassionate. She expresses genuine interest in her clients and goes beyond what's expected of her. Anyone complaining about her personality has clearly never had the misfortune of dealing with a weak attorney. If you want legal representation who doesn't care about the outcome of your case and just goes through the motions to have it finished, look elsewhere. Christine is a perfectionist. She doesn't settle for less than you deserve and she encourages her clients to do the same. I recommend her to everyone I know.

Very knowledgeable and thorough. Ms. Thornhilll and her staff were wonderful and helped me tremendously during a difficult process. I would highly recommend her services.

Ms. Thornhill and her office handled our daughter's divorce in a very professional, compassionate and thoroughly prepared manner. She was totally prepared for court with documentation and anticipation of responses from the opposing attorney. Her attitude and approach was to "win" for her client. This is why she was voted "Top Divorce Attorney" by Lakeland in 2018. Without any reservation, we highly recommend her.

I lost my daughter this year and soon after, my granddaughter's father was released from a 7-year prison term with the intent of taking my grandchild. I chose Christine Thornhill to be my lawyer. She was honest and upfront with me from Day 1. She was straightforward about Dad's rights and explained what could happen; but, she did her job and went far beyond at every turn to prevent him from taking her away. She won my case! Against all odds! I feel so grateful and blessed to have her as my attorney and I look at her as the best there is. I know she did everything and more to keep my grandchild with me. I highly recommend Trakas Thornhill, PA for all of your family law needs.
