Great Representation

From Mariama Conte Preventative/ Tresorer of the Association of the Guineans in the DMV Attorney Christian represented Elhaj Salim Diaby whio is the leader of our Mosque with total care and empathy. Mr Usman Christian and Attorney Tanto worked endless hours to bring a light to Imam Salim Diaby's... case. I personally say thank you to the outcome of their expertise. Glory is to You Lord. They are great team.

Excellent Business Attorney

I was exceedingly impressed with the legal representation of Attorney Gabriel Christian. My case with Chesapeake Insurance company was handled with impeccable professionalism and the results were very satisfactory. I will recommend Attorney Gabriel Christian to small businesses who lack proper legal ...representation. His services are very affordable and the entire team from his office manager, Ms. Brooks and Usman, the case manager were exceptional. They were very accommodating with my crazy time schedule and were willing to work with me late in the night. It was a pleasure working with the entire legal team.

Results every time

This was my second time hiring Mr. Christian, and my second time receiving a favorable judgement. Mr. Christian, Mrs. Brooks, and their entire staff are experts in the field of law, both criminal and traffic. The staff is very busy owing to their high level of talent, but communication is always open.... Trust the process, and you will get the results you’re looking for.

Mr. Christian Excellent Lawyer

Mr. Christian won my case. Had I lost I could have lost my status in the United States. Today July 30 2021 I am very happy. My stress level has gone down 100%. I recommend Mr. Christian to anyone in trouble with the law. He know the law, is courageous and fights for you till the end. Most importantly... he is a man of faith. He prays with you and God has shown him favor. I thank his office staff which is outstanding. Mrs Brooks, Mr Usman and the office are competent and pleasant. They all work as a team and when you walk into that office they greet you with a smile and the utmost courtesy. May God richly them abundantly.

A-plus rating

Mr. Christian came highly recommended to me by a good friend of mine's. Had to be maybe 1998-1999 and when we first met. I thought he was very friendly and very kind. He made me feel so comfortable. When we spoke he was very confident and his office personnel was amazing. I was very very happy with t...he outcome. Let me just say that over the years I have stayed in contact with him just to see how he's doing. I feel personally like he is my real brother and I really appreciate him. The line of work I'm in I know a lot of attorneys, but when someone would ask me do I know a good attorney, Mr. Christian is the first person that comes to my mine. A great person to know and to have in your life Honest, respectful, loving and very professional

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
