Reduced Charge

Chris was an excellent lawyer in my case. I was charged with a felony intent to distribute and two misdemeanors. The DA was relentless with pursuing the maximum penalties because the evidence was stacked against me and Chris never backed down. He searched diligently for a break in the case and he fin...ally found one. He always was on good terms with the judge, having been polite, on time, and very professional. Chris helped me to get the felony dropped so i could move on with my life. Thanks Chris for all the hard work.

Not Guilty

I were found not guilty on an Aggravated Assualt, Simple Assualt, Escape, Resisting Arrest, and a possession of Marijuana charge thanks to Chris. Pretty Impressive ! Only issue I have is that a lot of the charges were dragged all the way to trial in which could've been dismissed at the preliminary. O...ther than that Chris personally kept me informed on all up and coming court dates, cancelations, and reschedules. Most certainly felt as though I were in great hands.

Guy D. Canterbury

Christopher introduced himself to me on a Sunday afternoon on a holiday weekend. A bad turn of events in a young casino had a southern boy setting in Red's in Philly with no bail an no where to turn. I didn't do anything wrong and I needed someone and this man helped me out of a situation that no o...ne wanted to look into. The process was long and tedious but the outcome was just. He has earned the mark of a brother. Not guilty. Truth. Guy D. Canterbury

Who would have known!

I first met chris as my original lawyers assistant I believe. My lawyer gave chris my case back in 2011 after my third court date. Chris was like heaven sent, the outcome of the case chris got me three months of probation. The case I was going up against could have led me to do well over 2 yrs, but I... put my faith in him and allowed him to do his job to the best of his ability. I then got into some trouble again a year later. This time Chris was hands on from the very beginning. We built a very trustworthy friendship. This man will go over and beyond just to make sure the client is ok. When ever I called him, he was there. Any question or concern I had with my case or just a broad question chris always did and will still do to the very day his absolutely best to answer it. Chris has let my mother cry on his shoulder when I got I to trouble. This man isn't just worried about the money, when he takes on a case he thoroughly does his job. He is very understanding and Unjudgemnetle It doesn't matter what time of the day it is, if I call on him he is right there. If not at the very moment he will never let the day go by without contacting me back.. Another thing I appreciated with chris was the understanding that I am not rich and cannot pull a large amount of money out of the blue. He allowed me to make payment plans, and will even meet up with me to pick the deposits up. Lord knows, I wouldn't know where I would be today in life, if I didn't have a lawyer like Chris by my side each and every step of the way.. This man is very professional and compassionate.
