A Great Colleague

I have known Chris for thirty years and I don't know of another attorney (other than me!) who fights as hard for his clients as he does. He has an excellent staff and I am confident that, when I refer cases to Chris, they will be handled professionally.

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Apparently this guy is having a crappy day!

I mearly called for a consultation, I don't know whether this attorney was having a bad day or something else is going on or perhaps he was preoccupied, but the level of attention to detail on a potential case Even if he was listening at all, yes I understand you couldn't even take the case yet you ...have a tactfully poor representation of your law firm. Once again so we can be clear Yes I understand yes !!!!! I understand your not going to be able to take the case nor do you have to provide reason but asking a general question of what my options are , should have been handled more appropriately . you offer free consultation. I respect the type of attorney that you can hear in their voice no matter what the answer is They were delighted to handle your situation as best as they possibly could have. I call it having a good bedside manner. Yet I was brutally disconnected cut off and left hanging and I guess that's how you tell the difference between a solid lawyer that gives a crap about his clients potential clients and ones that are just ambulance chasers wanting to make a quick buck. There are millions of lawyers on this site And you should be truly grateful that people decided to hire you to take on their cases . Because if it wasn't for them you wouldn't even have a practice . I'm not angry. I've served my country for 8 years in the United States Navy and the college graduate with the background and engineering . An I studied quite a bit of law I felt like it was being put down or something . Although I laugh it off because I have thick skin , give you no excuse to represent yourself in the form and fashion that you represented yourself to me . I'm just offering constructive criticism to you sir. With all due respect work on your bedside manner because it's pretty crappy .I rest my case with the situation.

Dear Nebeka, I was out of the office this entire week, not returning until next Tuesday. So it was not me you spoke to. It must have been one of the other attorneys in the office. Did he provide his name? Does the name David Green or Greg Smith sound familiar? In any event, I can assure you that it was not me. I am truly sorry to hear that your telephone discussion did not go well. We are not able to accept every case presented to us, for various reasons, but it upsets me deeply to hear that one of my associates did not seem concerned with your legal matter. They will be spoken to, if you can provide me the name of the person you spoke with.

Great Law Office

The lawyers at this office actually care. They listened to me. I say "they" because I actually had a couple lawyers at the office working on my case, including attorney Sullivan himself. Their team approach is great, and I know they all listened to me because in court the litigation team mention...ed every single thing I told them I was concerned about, and in a very precise and professional way. I was amazed by how well they were in front of the Judge. Needles to say, I won my case. Incredible! Great Law firm!

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

One of the best decisions I ever made!

After I got in my car accident I felt like the insurance company was giving me the runaround. It wasn't my fault, I was injured, out of work, and the medical bills were starting to really pile up. I didn't know what to do. A friend of mine said I should call Sully. Attorney Chris Sullivan. At fi...rst I thought "I can't afford a lawyer", until I learned that using attorney Sullivan's office wouldn't cost me anything up front and that they don't get paid anything at all unless they get me paid. So I figured what do I have to lose and decided to give Sully a call. It's the best decision I ever made! Within a week of signing on with his office I got a check covering the full value of my totalled vehicle, lost wage checks started arriving in my mailbox, and payments were being issued to cover my medical bills. Then, as if that's not enough, I got a call about 9 months later letting me know that the pain and suffering portion of my case was ready to settle, - for a substantial amount of money. So whenever I'm asked if I recommend attorney Sullivan's office, the answer is easy - Absolutely!
