Finally found an attorney I respect.

Until I retained Chris Hemmel to represent me, I've never been inspired with quality of legal counsel I engaged for professional or personal matters. Cost was always a mystery and I never got a straight answer about hourly billing I asked as a client. Attorney Hemmel presented the cost of legal ser...vices the first day we met. The cost was reasonable, reasonable, and throughout the course of my case did not deviate. There were no surprises and I respected that. Attorney Hemmel is a user friendly professional and well connected with district attorneys and prosecutors in Delaware County. I was concerned and anxious about citations received for harassment in association with arguments with my neighbor. Options were discussed but during the hearing Attorney Hemmel convinced the District Attorney to dismiss all charges pending completion of an anger management course. I didn't agree that I was guilty in the first place but at the end of the day having charges dismissed was the best outcome. I feel Attorney Hemmel's manner and connection Delaware County Courts were cause for the success. I respect Attorney Hemmel as a legal professional and person and would not hesitate to retain again.

Try to find another esq.

Christopher Hemmel esq. sent a letter to my home asking to represent me. I obliged because I was in a bind, scared, and wanted to get the best representation. Upon speaking with C.Hemmel esq. I felt he would represent me and keep me in the loop of what was going on. As time carried on and the case c...arried on C.Hemmel esq. did not make well on his promise of basic client/lawyer rights. He stopped being available for my calls, he signed papers on my behalf without even notifying me or getting my consent first. Through research, calling around, and having a terrible experience with his representation, I found that C.Hemmel esq. was not the best and most cost effective lawyer that I could have found. I truly wish to warn others that are scared, in a bind, and just want the best out of a legal situation to choose another when dealing with C.Hemmel esq.

I strive to satisfy all my valued clients, but sometimes there are disagreements. I was able to get several serious felony charges dismissed for this client. When I had a disagreement with the client's girlfriend, he became angry, demanded his money back and threatened to sue, even though I had achieved a good result for him. When I refused to provide a refund, he published this negative review online. I sincerely wish the best for this gentleman, as I do for all my clients. However, no accomplished attorney can be expected to work hard for a client, achieve a favorable result for him, and then refund all his money at the end of the case.

Great attorney

I have consulted with Mr. Hemmel to resolve a few criminal and traffic ticket issues. He always took as much time with me as I needed and never made me feel rushed. If I could fix the problem myself he was honest with me and would explain what I needed to do. If not he would take charge and resolve ...the problem. If I ever get into some trouble again I am going to give him a call.

I highly recommend Chirs

When you want to win at anything, first you need to have your own resolve but this can be very difficult in trying and confusing times when facing legal issues. You just need to find a very competent lawyer ...enter Chris Hemmel. Chris was great from the very beginning. He said right away ..."we ...will win this and this is the plan". Along with his thorough planning I found that Chris also possesses an extremely vibrant personality that is extraordinarily engaging. This is very evident in his cordial demeanor with the court system personnel and overall atmosphere. I found Chris to be a very thorough lawyer and available to me for all my needs anytime I called. He made me feel I had a very good friend fighting for me. It was great to have him by my side and we still stay in touch. I would absolutely reach out to him again if needed and highly recommend him.
