In 2014, Virginia Lawyers Weekly recognized her as a “Leader in the Law,” an annual award given to attorneys that set the standard in their field, and one of the most prestigious honors a Virginia lawyer can receive.

Kristi specializes in assisting consumers with credit reporting and employment background check mistakes, mortgage servicing errors and abusive debt collection practices. She has successfully litigated hundreds of individual and class action cases against banks, brokers, auto dealers, online lenders, debt collectors, credit card companies, credit bureaus and foreclosure rescue scammers, receiving a $686,000 verdict in her first jury trial, in addition to her attorney fees from a foreclosure rescue scammer in 2010..

She frequently volunteers her time to speak to various nonprofit and community organizations to train and educate individual and community stakeholders on their rights as consumers, and has been a presenter at various trainings on the statewide and local level focusing on foreclosure prevention, consumer rights for domestic violence survivors, landlord tenant law, predatory loans, dealing with debt collectors and understanding credit reports. Kristi also regularly volunteers her time to assist consumers and members of the active duty military and veterans in need who are referred from legal aid and other nonprofit organizations.. For over a decade, Kristi has worked with Virginia’s General Assembly to fight predatory loans, and has also testified before the General Assembly regarding various mortgage related and foreclosure reform bills. She serves on the Board of Directors for the Legal Aid Justice Center and National Association of Consumer Advocates. She is also on the Partner’s Council of the National Consumer Law Center.. Kristi was previously a shareholder at Surovell Isaacs Petersen & Levy and a housing and consumer law attorney for Legal Services of Northern Virginia.
