Criminal Case

Christa defended us in a criminal case. My son was accused of rape. My son was innocent. Chris thoroughly prepared for the case, interviewed witnesses, and did an outstanding job in cross-examination. Chris knew that my son was innocent and he was able to prove that on all 9 counts. 3 the judge drop...ped and on the remaining 6 the jury came back not guilty. Jesus delivered my son and he used Chris in that process. Our family is forever thankful.

The Real Deal

I hired Mr Hoey to represent my son whi was accused of Rape. Our initial meeting left me with a thorough understanding of what lied ahead. We prepared for trial for several months and when the day finally came to go to court, we could not have been more prepared. I warched Mr Hoey cross-examine 11 wi...tnesses, taking the story apart piece by piece. Besides being a great speaker, he has an instinct in the courtroom that is unmatched. My son was acquitted and moved on with his life. I ran into Mr Hoey several years after the verdict and he was quick to ask about my son and genuinely interested in his well being. Hire him if uou need a fine attorney

Medical Malpractice Lawyer

I was referred to Chris by our estate attorney following the death of our son at a local hospital in Coatesville, Chester County. My husband and I struggled to find answers from his treating physicians, but got none. Our son was severely mistreated by his physicians and died 2 days after walking in...to their emergency department. The case went to trial after Chris deposed nearly 20 doctors and nurses involved in our son's care. He was relentless and never gave up on the case, despite the opposition the other attorneys posed, they agreed to settle the case at the conclusion of the trial. The jury loved Chris. When they emereged from deliberations they hugged us in the courtroom in a very emotional tear -filled embrace. Their was not a moment where I doubted Chris's abilities and conviction. I am quite comfortable recommending Chris to pursue your personal injury claim, no matter how big or small. He was simply incredible.

Chester County Criminal defense attorney

Christian was referred to me from a former client who raved about his abilities. My son was charged with homicide by vehicle after his 2 passengers were killed in an alcohol related car accident. Mr. Hoey provided me with his cell phone and personal email info and I remained in constant contact wit...h him for nearly 18 months. We arrived at a suitable plea agreement after Chris spent many many hours negotiating with the prosecutor. His contacts remain in my cell phone in case I ever need an attorney in the future. He is simply the best.

MY LOSS IS YOUR GAIN!

at the initial meeting, we were interrupted by a phone call, he advised the other party about a defendant who jumped bail in front of me. He had advised me in his professional opinion my case will result in 2 years probation. But, since he didn’t provide any written counterclaims or make an effort to... contest the plaintiffs’ discrepant claims and false allegations, the end result is a much longer probation, in addition to paying for hefty monetary damages that I never did. I am still waiting for a copy of the plaintiffs’ statements that I had asked him to send me since I don’t know exactly how can they make false claims that are accepted by the court. At both court hearings, he attended 4-5 cases at the same time so he was going in and out of different courtrooms in the same floor. He did not pay full attention to defend my case.
