He promised results, and that's what I got

He was very compassionate and he answered every question I had about my personal injury case. When we couldn't settle with the insurance company out of court, he was a fighter in the courtroom. Needless to say, we won and I couldn't be happier with the results.

You can put your trust into Chris Munley

A couple of years ago I got into a car crash and didn't think I would recover financially. The insurance company had denied my claim and I thought that was that. But thanks to Mr. Munley, I got the money I needed from the insurance company and I was able to get on with my life. Thank you again, Mr. M...unley.

A great lawyer you need at your side

Chris Munley helped me in one of the hardest times of my life. He guided me through the process and listened to any problems I had with the case. I don't know what I would have done if Mr. Munley wasn't my attorney. I am pleased to say my case was won and it's all thanks to Chris Munley.

Chris Munley represented my dad at a very difficult time with compassion yet in the court room he was the fighter we needed.

Chris helped my family during a time of incredible hardship when my dad was hit head on by 2 teenage girls. He took the time to answer all of our questions at any given time when we needed him. He treated my entire family with respect and helped us to get what we deserved. I would recommend Chris ...Munley to anyone in need of a reliable, determined, and trustworthy attorney.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
