Kristin Adamson
Wendi Adelson's family law attorney, called as a defense witness in both trials.
About
Adamson's testimony supplies a recurring professional account of the Adelson-Markel divorce proceedings, including the relocation denial, settlement and enforcement disputes, later filings, and her withdrawal as counsel. The two examinations also define the limits of her knowledge about Donna Adelson's private communications and involvement.

Wendi Adelson's divorce lawyer, called as the defense's first witness on the fifth trial day, testified about the 2012 relocation request, its June 2013 denial, the July 2013 settlement, Markel's 2014 fraud and disbarment filings, and her own withdrawal as counsel.
Testimony (3)
DA Donna Adelson Aug 22, 2025 – Sep 4, 2025
Trial Summary
Called by the defense on the trial's eighth day, the board-certified family law attorney who represented Wendi Adelson in her divorce from Dan Markel described the case as a relocation dispute rather than a bitter custody fight and said the March 2014 pleading's statements attributed to Donna Adelson would not have supported restricting her unsupervised time with the grandchildren.
