A Great Lawyer!

Chris Maher is wonderful! I came to him from an abusive relationship and he was professional, understanding, very knowledgeable and ready to fight for me! In the two years it took to get divorced, because of the ex, he remained patient and made sure I understood everything I was agreeing to! Chris M...aher is the Lawyer to use!

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.

The best lawyer around

I don't understand how people left bad reviews. Probably because they didn't listen to Chris. I had many criminal cases pending on me. Dwi and drug felony cases. Chris told me exactly what to do and where to go. Chris made me get sober which he can relate to as well being a sober person. Not easy b...tw. Not only did he get me off my cases which took a year and half. He helped me get my life back. Which I owe him everything for. He had the entire court room and the judge laughing. He put the system on trial. An Outstanding lawyer!!! Changed my life forever!!!! He made me feel comfortable and made it easy. Thanks
