Chris G. McDonough

Hired Chris for a character and fitness matter. He gave me very vague pointers, took him many weeks, and many emails and calls just to respond for a few questions I had. He is a hard man to chase down once you pay him. For someone who purports to be an ethics attorney, he should know the number one c...ause of ethics complaints is unresponsive attorneys such as Chris.

I used Mr. McDonough to assist me with a character and fitness issue. I found him through his website. He was interested in helping me out and sold me on his experience and knowledge of the system. However, once I paid his legal fee, I found that there was a substantial drop in his attentiveness to m...y case and did not find that he added much value overall. He was slow with responding to emails, and anything he sent to me were basically standard templates with typos. I hired him because I needed help with a sensitive issue and scary process, and found that overall I would have been better without him. Everything worked out fine from my end, but not at all because of Mr. McDonough's efforts. If you are a new attorney facing a character and fitness issue, despite Mr. McDonough's assurances and seemingly calming nature, I would strongly recommend not using him.

I contacted Chris regarding a potential concern I have with my character and fitness committee application. I initially reached out to him via message on Avvo and he responded promptly with an email and invited me to call him. He was extremely kind and very thorough in his advice. He answered each an...d every concern I had and even offered me sound professional advice for the future. If I end up needing assistance with the character and fitness committee, I will certainly retain his services. He truly encompasses what a professional, ethical, and compassionate attorney are all about. Thanks again Chris! God bless you.

I contacted Chris with a problem. He gave me great advise and cleared up my problem right away. He even offered to follow up in another matter and never asked for a fee. I will definitely retain him if this matter requires a lawyer who specializes in attorney ethics matters as he is the top man in th...at field in the state by all accounts. I highly recommend him to any lawyer who has a problem with a client or an ethics question org review center as he answers his phone right away and is willing to give consultations over the phone.
