Hammond Zettersten & Associates has had some staffing changes so we are starting a new series to introduce our firm to all of you.

I'm Christina Hammond Zettersten. I started this practice with my husband, Peter, who is now working for the State of Tennessee. I also work in child support enforcement for the 21st and 32nd Judicial Districts. I'm not only admitted to the Tennessee Bar, but also admitted to practice in Minnesota and before the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee.
I graduated from Washburn University School of Law in Topeka, Kansas, where I earned a certificate in law and government. My practice now primarily focuses on family law, including divorce, child custody and support, and adoptions, as well as juvenile law. In my free time, I enjoy running, cycling, live music, and spending time with my family.
