Owner/AZCLDP

Kristi grew up in Oceanside, California where she began her legal career working as a file clerk for a personal injury attorney. 

In 2002, Kristi moved to Arizona and became a Firm Administrator/Paralegal for a small criminal defense firm that also practiced family law. She remained at this firm for over seven years and then followed her ambition to work for the Attorney General's Office. Kristi became a Paralegal for the Solicitor General's Office which included duties of drafting legal opinions and appellate litigation. 

In 2013, Kristi became a Certified Paralegal. In 2015, she became a Certified Legal Document Preparer and founded AZ Legal Documents, LLC. 

Having spent sometime working for the State of Arizona, Kristi found herself drawn back to family law where she spent the remainder of her career as a Certified Paralegal. 

In June of 2020, Kristi decided to focus solely on her business and she "retired" from her position as a Certified Paralegal with the family law firm who had become her "work family". It was a bittersweet decision. Kristi continues to provide contract services to attorney's throughout the valley. With over seventeen (17) years of legal experience, you can be sure that you are in good hands.

Kristi is married to Darryl, who retired as a Commander  from the Navy in 2011. Together, they have three children. In her spare time, Kristi enjoys learning photography, traveling, spending time with her family,  riding along in the golf cart while Darryl golfs, and just enjoying life.
