Excellent!!

This is my third case with Mr Christian and we won at trial today . I would advise anyone seeking a lawyer to use Mr Christian. He has a nice office and capable staff such as Ms Pratt and Mr Alfaro. They are kind and respectful in that law firm and treat you like family. Try him and you will see.

Your life is in good hands

For anyone who is in need of an attorney you must meet Mr.Christian! I have never needed to seek for legal representation however, of course life has its moments. But when the time came I was recommended to meet with Mr.Christian. Let me say to this day Mr.Christian and the entire staff have treated ...me nothing but like family and they insured that all my questions and concerns were addressed no matter how small or large the matter was. They have truly exceeded my expectations and most importantly they have touched my heart in the way everything was handled. I know I have found my attorney for life! All you have to do is give him the call.

Outstanding Lawyer

Mr. Christian does an outstanding job to uphold the law and give superior service to his clients. He cross examined the plaintiff, who had no evidence. Mr. Christian was polite and proper to the judge and court. Very thankful and appreciative of him and his team. What a wonderful group to assist me... during this unfortunate experience. Many thanks and blessings.

Exceptional Service

Mr. Christian represented me in my DUI case. From our first initial meeting up until my court date he was very personable and professional. He let me know what my options were, how he was going to represent me and also let me know what steps to take to better represent myself in front of the judge. I... couldn't have asked for a more competent attorney. I am blessed to know him.

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.
