When my other lawyer failed Chris took it to the next level and got it done.

Chris was great to work with and without a doubt made me feel I was now in the right hands. I had been hit by a car walking across a street my last lawyer could not get anywhere and dragged it out for a year. But when I finally was introduced to Chris on our first meeting I felt the professionalism a...nd clear understanding of how he was going to handle my case. I knew I was in the right place and it would finally be resolved. I would recommend his office to anyone! Thanks Chris.

Another Positive Outcome!

This is the third time I have used Chris. The most recent case was a charge of harassment against me, and 2 others were for defense of two my sons. In each case, he got the charges resolved with a dismissal, with all charges dropped. He gives a price upfront and he sticks to it. He never asked for mo...re money after the case was resolved.

An exceptional attorney

As a retired chief of police, I became acquainted with a multitude of high profile criminal attorneys during my career, including Chris, and his dad who also was a highly regarded trial attorney. When a close family member became involved in a criminal matter in Putnam County, I called Chris, and r...etained him to represent my relative. During the months it took to resolve the matter, I became Close with him, and very impressed with his friendship, commitment, legal expertise, ,experience and respect he commanded from other attorneys, court personnel, judges and the district attorney’s office. Chris navigated the complexities of the case with confidence and exceptional effectiveness, achieving an exceptionally Positive and favorable resolution in the matter. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the outcome. Accordingly , I can unhesitatingly recommend Chris to anyone seeking the services of an attorney who is at the top of their field. Chris treats his clients, and their family members with respect, compassion and dignity. His abilities in the court room and in the process of negotiating a resolution distinguishes him as one of the most effective and successful trial attorneys in the Hudson Valley. In addition to an excellent reputation Chris enjoys an extensive history of successfully representing clients in a myriad of complex and serious legal matters. He unquestionably one of the best.

Top-Notch Lawyer

Will fight and go to the ends of the earth for you. Intense, brutally honest, straightforward, but heart is always in the right place. Phenomenal lawyer and highly recommended to anyone.

Gets it done

I hired Chris Maher last year on a recommendation from another attorney, which was based on his expertise and experience for my particular need. Chris was straight up and no nonsense, and he got the job done. He explained options, and was patient answering my questions. Based on my response he lay...ed out what would likely happen, and that is what happened. Chris did his best to put me at ease, and his staff was great. I absolutely recommend Christopher X Maher.
