Attorney Chris Amrhein
I was injured in a diving accident, and I am paralyzed from the chest down. The insurance company said it was my fault. I retained attorney Chris Amrhein, he assembled a team of experts including aquatic experts. Chris thoroughly prepared my case and was fiercely aggressive fighting for me against the insurance company and he took the case to trial. After opening statements before the jury, the insurance company settled. Chris is an aggressive, dedicated, and caring advocate. If you need the best personal injury lawyer, hire Chris Amrhein.

Mr. Amrhein represented me in an Insurance case
My family and I were being sued for damages re: a car accident of a few years ago. I firmly felt that this was an attempt to recover funds for prior physical and emotional injuries, i.e, for injures that had nothing to do with the accident. Mr. Amrhein is the attorney who represented the insurance company and therefore also represented myself. After a long process, he did a truly outstanding job and this resulted in a favorable yet fair judgement. I would heartily recommend him to anyone. I will certainly use him myself if I ever get into any trouble, God forbid.

My Experience
Some years ago I was injured in a fall. The insurance company refused to pay which is when I retained Attorney Chris Amrhein. Mr. Amrhein met with me several times. He made me feel comfortable and at all times kept me in the loop. He filed suit, took depositions and just before trial the insurance company caved in and paid me for the injuries I sustained. I highly recommend him. He was aggressive and relentlessly pursued my claim to a very successful conclusion.

My 5 star Attorney
I have known attorney Christopher Amrhein for almost 40 years. I am a former law enforcement officer and have witnessed Attorney Amrhein's court house demeanor both in civil and criminal matters as nothing but professional skills with the utmost regards and respect for his clients. .He is aggressive and understanding of their needs. He has represented me and my family as though we were part of his. I would highly recommend Attorney Amrhein to any individual in need of representation in civil ,probate or criminal matters.

"I have interacted with Attorney Amrhein for approximately 20 years in cases which we've either co-counseled or have been opposing counsel. In my 45 years of practicing law, and I have never encountered an attorney that comes as prepared and is as thorough as Attorney Amrhein. Attorney Amrhein is an extremely accomplished attorney who has tried a multitude of very significant personal injury cases. Accordingly, when opposing counsel recognizes Attorney Amrhein's ability and experience, this is a significant factor that enters into settlement and mediation matters. Aside from his expert legal skills, Attorney Amrhein is a kind and compassionate attorney whose clients truly appreciate his empathy in their times of need."
