Trustworthy Attorney

I met Mr. Gabriel Christian through one of his clients who received excellent services from him and his very friendly and capable executive assistant Mrs. Brooks. Mr. Christian is a trustworthy and genuine professional. He is insightful, compassionate, and empathetic. He went above and beyond to he...lp me in my time of need. I highly recommend his services. He is a great writer, too; his books are a great read. Thank you for everything sir.

Excellent representation!

I appreciate Mr. Christian and his team for their excellent representation in my divorce case. This is my first experience of divorce after being married for 5 years. It was quite daunting the amount of information, time and patience required in a divorce process. Mr. Christian and his team made the ...process much easier for me and were able to reach a fair settlement with my ex-spouse. I'll be sure to use his services again in the future.

Mr. Gabriel Christian is an Excellent Lawyer

Attorney Gabriel Christian is an excellent advocate and well respected by the judges. This is not my first time using his services. The first time he met me and my daughter in court. He was not our lawyer at that time. We had not hired him then. We were of modest means. Yet, due to his kind and graci...ous heart, he helped us and we won our case. When I had a personal legal matter he again came through for me. Not guilty! He has never allowed money to deter him from rendering service to me and my family. I wish more lawyers were like him so that we could get justice under what are often frightful conditions for those of us unfamiliar with the courts. I highly recommend him and his experienced staff. God bless his path and allow him long life to serve people in need of legal services. Simply outstanding!

Auto accident

Mr Christian was very efficient dealing with the insurance companies. His team was always available. I am very thankful for his service in our community.

Prompt, top notch legal service. G. Christian takes care of his clients.

I came to Mr Christian on an emergency with a legal dilemma. My insurer would not accept my staffing contract for my construction firm without language that specified workers compensation. Mr Christian sat there with me, did the pertinent research, called the broker and crafted the revised document... himself. His knowledge, diligence and expertise allowed us to complete this project in quick time. Christian is a take charge no BS type of guy who gets the work done. His staff was friendly and he saw me through this difficulty even though his office was buzzing and he had other matters to attend. He sure takes care of business. Prompt and top notch professional shop! I highly recommend them!

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.
