Outstanding Servant

I hired Mr. Gabriel Christian and his associates to handle two traffic cases within a week for my son. My son was possibly looking at jail time. My son came home with me after each hearing thanks to the excellent work of Mr. Christian and his associates. Mr. Christian is an encourager and believe...s in doing the right things to help his clients.

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.

Super Councilor and friend

Gabriel Christian is an expert at law first and foremost, an abstract thinker and able to achieve to the highest level of defense, whether in civil, traffic or criminal. With false charges dropped and courts re-evaluating who you are respectfully. He’s not a miracle maker but it surely felt like that... to me on both occasions of representation. If you don't use Attorney Christian then good luck because you'll need it.

Great Professional

Me and my husband went in for a consultation with Attorney Christian for a serious traffic offence. He was very specific with details about what would happen with our case. He was also very helpful and understanding! I've never been in a lawyers office before and felt so comfortable. Today we went ...to court and he was GREAT! We won our case and he even offered us a discount afterwards. Its rare attorneys give discounts, especially after winning a case. I would recommend him to anyone that is in need of a lawyer! The money is well spent. Thank you so much Mr. Christian for all of you time and help. May God continue to bless you. -Bernadine and Carlton

Inconsistent

Although my case was successful Mr. Chrisitain is NOT consistent he always had to reschedule our meeting or is never available and rearly returns calls. He came to court seeming to be prepared but expected to use his "tenure" status to win my case. Fortunately, my case was just traffic I wouldn't re...ccomend him for anything serious.

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.
