My case

I made some bad choices. My family got Chris on my case, he filed motions, he had an investigator talk to people and he took the case to trial. I walked away from the Courthouse. It took 2 years, but but I never went back to jail.

This Criminal Defense Lawyer DELIVERS

Mr. Hoffner is the most professional lawyer I have ever worked with. Not only is he knowledgable, but he also took care to keep me informed every step of the way. I always knew what to expect, how to answer questions, and what was going to happen next. Most importantly, this man kept me from going... to jail. I could not be happier with his services. I made some poor choices in life but Mr. Hoffner helped me get past them all. If you need help, I highly recommend him.

Chris is a good lawyer

Chris did a great job with my sons criminal case. We thought he was going to jail. He was caught in a car with two friends and a gun. Chris had picked a jury and was trying the case when the judge dismissed it at Chris's request.

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.
