Excellent and successful

My son was arrested by the State Police for OUI. Ms. Maltby represented him throughout the court proceedings. It was a very long journey through the many court appearances. She knows the system, the judges, the DA’s. We were kept fully appraised of the process every step of the way. She recommended t...hat he not accept a plea-bargain, but rather go to trial. The first trial was to have been tried by a jury, but ran out of time, and it never happened. When the we finally sat for a trial, she recommended we do a bench trial, without the jury. I watched her question the State Police Officer and a witness. And respond to the objections of the DA. Very thorough, unflappable. She won! I have hired several attorneys over the years and observed many others. I highly recommend Ms. Maltby. The perfect blend of professionalism, knowledge, and personality.

Christine has been going above and beyond to assist me in my case. She has kept in constant contact with me and giving me advise as to what steps we need to take to get the best outcome.

MS

I can't speak highly enough of my attorney; Christine A Maltby. She was appointed on 4/30/19, by the Quincy court, to represent me; as my defense attorney, in a criminal case. From our introduction and through several court appearances; ending on 10/11/19, Christine was always respectful, pati...ent, sympathetic and very knowledgeable. She helped me through perhaps the worst five plus months of my life. Each time we had to appear in court, Christine would explain to me exactly what would happen, what I should do and say and more importantly; what I shouldn't do or say. Christine helped me to navigate the criminal court system; which I had no previous experience with. She answered my seemingly endless questions patiently and thoroughly. She was very sympathetic to the fact that this whole process was completely foreign to me and overwhelmingly stressful. The trait I would stress and praise the most is the fact that on our last court date, 10/11/19, Christine went completely above and beyond what her job as my defense attorney required; even while dealing with a personal family tragedy. I had Christine whether I would get blank motion forms at the clerk's office or at the probation office. (I was trying to get approval for changes to the terms of my probation.) The next thing I know, Christine is filling-out the motion form for me so that we could possibly get the motion heard that same day! I'm absolutely positive that without Christine going the extra mile and her legal expertise, the outcome would not have been as incredibly positive for me. An outcome I hadn't even thought was possible! Christine got the judge to agree that I did not have to complete community service due to several chronic health conditions. Then she got the judge to agree to waive the monthly probation fee. Then she got the judge and a representative from the Quincy probation office to agree that a letter from my PCP could be substituted for a mental health assessment which my health insurance company wouldn't pay for and that I couldn't afford to pay for. The most surprising and astounding part of the day is when she got the judge to agree to change my probation from supervised to administrative which means I no longer need to meet with my probation officer or have him conduct a home visit! This was not something I had even dared hope for when the day began. I would recommend Christine Maltby as an attorney to anyone who needs a criminal defense attorney and wants to be treated with respect, sympathy, kindness, patience and a client who wants someone very knowledgeable of criminal law and is able to navigate the complicated court system with ease. Most importantly, Christine will go above and beyond what is required of her in order to help her client as much as possible!

Exceeded expectations

Couldn't have asked for a better attorney or better results. Christine Maltby defended me in a recent criminal case, which resulted in the best possible outcome. She was always available to talk or answer any questions I had about my case, and really made sure I knew exactly what was going on at all ...times. She is very respected in the courtroom, and most definitely feared. I felt like I was finally in good hands, as she stood up for me and my character. I highly recommend this attorney and would go out of my way to hire again if ever needed. Overall, she's excels at her job. A+
