Honest and Personable Attorney

I needed an attorney to assist me with a complicated criminal and divorce matter involving domestic violence. Mr. Chase's background as a State's Attorney proved to be invaluable in his ability to assess the situation and advise accordingly. His sensibility and compassion was evident from our first m...eeting. A direct, honest and personable nature made working through the minutiae less of a grind. He was accommodating and accessible throughout the duration of the case. I'd recommend him to anyone in need of representation in Annapolis and the surrounding areas.

Awesome and Responsive- Get it Done Attorney!

After trying unsuccessfully to resolve a debt collection situation for months, I met Creighton Chase at the Annapolis courthouse. Creighton Chase is an awesome attorney with principles he isn’t just another attorney looking for his next victim. Those of you that may have had the pleasure of dealing ...with an attorney, where you were uncertain, if they were representing you, will certainly find Creighton Chase a pleasure to work with. I found Crighton Chase to be a great listener and easy to effectively communicate with. He listened to my issues/concerns, carefully reviewed my documents and came up with an agreeable solution. He took the time to contact the debt collection firm and weed through their lengthy holding process and confused staff. Throughout the entire process he remained professional, responsive and available for questions (a big plus). I would recommend him to my friends and family without hesitation!!

Super Lawyer!!

If you are looking for a Family Law/Divorce attorney, I highly recommend Crighton Chase! I was referred to Crighton by a good friend. I'll be forever grateful for this referral. I needed help reinforcing numerous portions of my settlement agreement and getting my ex back on track towards complia...nce. Once Crighton went to work on my case, I noticed immediate results. There were numerous financial issues addressed and all resolved in my favor. Shortly after all the financial stuff was dealt with, my ex filed suit seeking a change in child custody and modification of child support. This was scary! Fortunately, the uncertainty was short-lived. Thanks to Crighton's aggressive approach to my case, my ex dropped the lawsuit and said he was moving. THANK YOU, CRIGHTON! If you have the unfortunate experience of ex related legal warfare, you want Crighton Chase to represent you. He is an expert in his field and a force to be reckoned with. I will continue to send my friends his way! Thanks Crighton!!

Fantastic, Professional and Gets Results!

I hired Crighton last year based on numerous recommendations from satisfied customers and out of a need to replace my sub-par representation. Crighton came right out of the gate and represented my divorce case and criminal case extremely well and professionally. My divorce case was extremely stress...ful due to the opposing counsel’s lawyer but Crighton excelled in his representation of me and my interests and we came away with a very favorable settlement. My criminal case was looking gloomy but after Crighton stepped in, we managed to get the case dropped and later my record expunged. Crighton is very responsive via email/phone and was extremely professional and holds true to high integrity standards. His other Co-Workers and partners at Hillman, Brown, & Darrow, P.A. were great to work with and were just as helpful and knowledgeable as Crighton. In the courtroom, Crighton is clear, aggressive, and an intimidating force which is what you want on your side. I am extremely satisfied with Crighton’s service and keep his card close for when I may need it again.
