The Best Lawyer

If you are looking for a great lawyer that is very knowledgeble in the law, does his homework, keeps you posted on the process of the litigation, returns your calls and e-mails, gives you great detailed responses to any questions, fights for everything you deserve in court, and has very reasonable fe...es. Then please do yourself a favor and retain Christopher Fay. I wish I had Chris for my original divorce back in 2008. Chris worked so hard on my case from begining to end for the motions filed to court that the entire process was a pleasant experience.

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.
