Christopher Hoffmann's results on car accident, uninsured motorist, and underinsured claims are excellent.

As a lawyer myself, when I need to refer a client for an injury claim, Christopher Hoffmann is always my first call. He is an outstanding personal injury attorney in St. Louis, MO. He thoroughly reviews automobile insurance policies, meets with every client, and aggressivley litigates for serioulsy... injured clients. Chris has taken 100's of depositions, tried numerous cases to verdict, and has spent hundreds of thousands on experts to fight for his clients. Insurance adjustors try to hide behind their attorneys but Chris doesn't stop until he discovers the truth through court motions, depositions, interrogatories, and request for documents. Christopher is licensed to practice law in the state of Missouri and handles cases anywhere in any county. Christopher has obtained millions in compensation for injuries that include brain damage, disc herniations, lumbar and cervical fusions, rotator cuff surgery; tibial plateau fractures, knee replacment, medial and lateral meniscus surgery, ACL and MCL injury; lis franc fracture dislocation with surgery; compound fractures; carpal tunnel; cubital tunnel; wrongful death; and many other injuries suffered due to the negligence of another. As a well respected defense attorney once told me, "Chris is like a pitbull that sinks his teeth in and won't let go."

Excellent St Louis Personal Injury Lawyer, Car Accident and Workers Compensation

Mr. Hoffmann has done a case for me. I was in a car accident for work. He did both the workers compensation and car accident case. I received a nice settlement from both cases, I highly recommend Chris Hoffmann for any personal injury car accidents and/or workers compensation claims.

"I cannot more highly recommend Mr. Hoffman for any car accident case. Unlike most other personal injury attorneys (including myself), his practice focus is almost exclusively auto accidents. Whenever I ask him questions, he shows an extreme and impressive depth of knowledge related to all aspects of handling auto accident cases, which makes sense, given those are all he handles. He is particularly skilled with more serious accident & even fatality cases. Plus, unlike bigger firms, if you call him, you will get him. And he is outstanding. As a bonus, he is a very nice guy, who will care about you, your injuries, your medical bills, and how the injury has impacted your life and family. Hiring a lawyer who cares about those things really matters. If I needed an auto accident attorney in St. Louis, there is no way I would call anyone other than Mr. Hoffman. St. Louis is lucky to have him, so you should be thrilled if he accepts your case."

"I would fully endorse Christopher Hoffman, owner of The Hoffman Law Firm, L.L.C., for anyone needing a personal injury (vehicle accident, wrongful death and any other injury claim) lawyer in St. Louis or really anywhere in Missouri. Christopher has those things you look for in a lawyer: credentials, experience and a focus on a particular area of law. He prepares, as do all good personal injury lawyers, every case, whether large or small, as if it is going to trial. By doing this, he gets much better results for his clients. Christopher Hoffman definitely has my endorsement."

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.
