Give Attorney Buck a call- you'll be happy you did!

I highly recommend Attorney Buck! He was responsive, compassionate, and I really felt like he cared about me and the outcome of my case. He's certainly a step above attorneys I have used in the past.

Child custody

Chris did an excellent job providing us with succinct advice in a child custody case. He was extremely professional, courteous, and non-judgemental. Look forward to his services again in the future.

Avvo Rating

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.
