Review Christopher Waters

Top professional in his field

Posted by

In Rockland County, Mr. Waters has proven himself over and over again to be one of the top Attorneys. He is both professional and personable. He will fight for the best possible outcome, not just because that's his job, he really is a caring and kind person that shows true concern for the individual. You aren't just a file on his desk. He has long standing relationships with the district attorney office, and will go the extra mile to do right by his client. I know that through personal experience. I was referred to Mr. Waters by a friend of mine, and I am grateful for that.
