Legal expertise, energy and authenticity
I normally don’t write reviews but this one for Chris is important to share. I consulted with Chris on in depth conflicts during litigation and in collaboration with my counsel to help achieve a particular reality for resolving my case with co-plaintiff regarding strategy. Chris was exceptionally generous with his knowledge and time. He won’t BS you or waste your time. Chris is energetic, passionate and authentic; rare qualities in todays legal scene.

Excellent
Attorney Berlingieri has always remained professional and committed to my case, very prompt with communication and helping me navigate through my legal issues with a multiple billion dollar global industry where I felt little and unfamiliar he made me aware and let me know help was only a phone call away. Will definitely hold onto his number ( Hopefully it won’t be needed) but always good to have.

Christopher was amazing to me. I cannot tell you how fearful and overwhelmed I felt with my situation. He listened, he was reassuring and very quick with helping me. Christopher was available to answer all questions I had. I highly recommend contacting him.

I wish there were more than 5 stars!!!
Chris was referred by a very close friend that told me he was extremely cautious when recommending someone but knew from the first day he met Chris that he would be extremely successful. Chris took the time to explore all the details of my case in a very careful and thoughtful manner. I in turn made sure that I was as honest in the events leading to my employer dispute. He went above and beyond my expectations and did not ask for an exorbitant retainer like many attorneys would do in a case like mine. We both made sure that we were respectful of each other as well as my prior firm. The whole process has lead to an outcome that is beneficial to all parties involved. Fair and Just. What else could anyone ask for when working with an attorney in an employer/employee dispute. At the end of the day I wish my former employer success in managing my former clients, and know that Chris will continue to serve his clients and have incredible success as well. I am so lucky to have Chris as my attorney!!!

Chris took my case when every one else rejected it. Christopher is by far the best lawyer I have had...and believe me I have had a lots of them. Christ dedicated, understanding, and Goes above and beyond. No one has ever fought for me like Christ has We just won our case last week .

I'm in awe at his humility, his compassionate heart and dedication to doing what is right. He has given me hope in this jungle called society. He truly loves his job and does it with excellence. Believe me you want Christopher berlingierie on your side. He will not let you down. A true angel . Thank you for being you. For your dedication. You really are a God sent. You inspired me Christ and I'm in awe. Ami

Outstanding A+ service
I consulted with Mr. Berlingieri over a claim for possible discrimination, false advertisement of pay, and unpaid wages. During this consultation the lawyer was fully transparent and non-biased while discussing my options to resolve the issue. He was very polite and personable when I interacted with him over the phone or through email. He really made me feel comfortable the entire time, and he never made it seem that he was too busy for me, or my claims were unimportant. I really loved and appreciated how quick his turnaround time was to address my questions and concerns.

Great experience with Christopher
Christopher was an excellent partner in helping me through every step of my legal case. He was extremely responsive and transparent throughout the entire process. Dealing with any type of legal issue is stressful but Christopher helped put my mind at ease. He presented various options for my case and did not pressure me into any options I was not comfortable with. My case had a positive outcome and he was resilient in making sure I received a rightful settlement. Everything was quick, seamless, and straightforward.

AMAZING Lawyer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Attorney Berlingieri answered my inquiry from a legal website. I knew from the first correspondence with him I had found the PERFECT lawyer to represent me in my unemployment case. He kept in touch with me and constantly updated me on the status of my case. If you have an unemployment case you want to win and have the best attorney represent you, call Christopher Berlingieri
