CRIMINAL CASE

I received a letter in the mail stating I was being charged and could get jail time and a heavy fine. shortly after I received a letter offering Christopher Hemmel services. After my wife read his reviews and quickly spoke with him, he reached out to me. Chris was extremely friendly and helpful list...ening to my issue and quickly got back in touch with me to help me and accept my case. He met me at the court and completely handled everything and made a tough situation very smooth with a great outcome. Very professional and easy going, definitely highly recommend his services.

First DUI

Chris Hemmel was the absolute best lawyer I could ask for. I got my first DUI and was clueless on the process and who to choose for a lawyer, as this was also my first time doing something wrong. I received his letter in the mail and there was just something about his letter that made me feel comfort...able and I called him and told him my situation and immediately he put my fears at ease. He is an exceptional lawyer but an even better person. He didn’t treat me like a number he treated me like a person and never judged me and explained every step thoroughly. I am a very anxious person and he calmed me down in every phone call and text message. I hope no one ever gets in trouble with the law but if you do, I would HIGHLY recommend him to help you with your case. As I stated before this is my first run in with the law and I got a DUI, and he was responsive, has excellent knowledge of the laws, and made you laugh when you feel like the world is crashing on you. He made this experience painless and although I will not be doing anything to put myself back in these predicaments, he was the absolute best. I am forever grateful for him and the work he put in for me. I ended up getting accepted into the ARD program and no jail time. He did what was best for me and again explained everything to me throughout the process. I cannot stress enough how amazing he was for me in my case. He made me feel human and seen and heard, I made a mistake and he helped me see that this doesn’t define me. He is an amazing person and I would recommend him for any type of case, but definitely for DUI’s. Thank you, Mr. Hemmel, for everything you did for me, I am eternally grateful for you and your time and patience and knowledge. M.R.

BEST ATTORNEY OUT HERE

I had the pleasure of having Chris represent me as my attorney. I received a letter from Chris as many attorney’s sent to me. From the jump Chris has been easy to talk to and making me feel like he was the best option for me no questions asked. Chris always kept it straight with me and never had me ...worrying about my case. He has always been there any day/time I had any questions for him. This man is a beast hands down. He could tell I was a good person and just made a dumb mistake which he said from the beginning. He got all the charges dismissed that I needed for me to continue my employment. I was charged with the lowest tier dui. This man will fight and fight till the end for you! You will not regret choosing him.

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.
