Bio
Teri Tappin, SPHR
I had the pleasure of working with Christina when we were both paralegals at Harris, Karstaedt, Jamison & Powers. She is one of those rare individuals who exhibits all the best of what it means to be a professional. Diligent, with a keen attention to detail, but unafraid to seek alternative opinions and ask intelligent and pertinent questions to formulate the best possible result for her clients. Christina is the consummate paralegal. We would often seek each other out for advice and to bounce ideas off each other. I am happy to say our professional relationship has continued on as friendship, and we continue to use each other as sounding boards to this day. Ms. Carroll cares deeply about her cases and clients and takes pride in providing the absolute best representation possible. She works with a clarity of purpose and vision that is seldom encountered in any professional arena. It is my pleasure to give Ms. Christina Carroll my absolute highest recommendation. Any employer would be lucky to have her on their team.
