Outstanding Attorney

My other half was facing some unwarranted heavy criminal charges. Crighton was contacted. He was kind, understanding and patient with all questions and concerns. He was always available to talk. We Always felt comfortable with asking about fears and possibilities of the outcome. Crighton adress...ed everyone of them, realistically. When the court date came , Crighton was a bull dog, and ended up getting the inappropriate charges dropped, which prevented my other half of having a lifetime criminal record. We were relieved. And will be ever grateful to Crighton. He is the attorney to obtain for your defense!

Job well done!!

Crighton did a great job representing my custody case. He was always available, very professional, knowledgeable and hard working! I appreciate his legal advise and helpful caring nature in a difficult situation. I would use him again and would recommend him to anyone looking for an outstanding lawy...er!

No one will work harder for you

I hired Mr.Chase to represent me in multiple cases and charges. He is hard working, knowledgable, and just VERY good at his job. I really appreciated him being straight forwth with me about my options and possible outcomes of my trials. He didn't sugar coat anything for me, but he did work extremely ...hard and I couldn't be happier with the results!

Attention to Detail, Knowledge, Preperation and Confidence

This is what you will find when you work with Mr. Chase. He goes above and beyond for his clients and knows the ropes. I have hired Mr. Chase twice, first for a shoddy mechanic and more recently for my divorce. The mechanic was defaulting on work and taking much longer than quoted (by 4 months). Mr. ...Chase reached out to the mechanic and informed him of our contract and his need to complete the work as detailed in our contract, or we would be pursuing legally. The mechanic quickly changed his tune and finished the work he was paid to do. For my divorce, Mr. Chase helped me understand my rights and guided me through the entire process. I know that divorces are never easy but he made it as pain free as possible. I know that without his extreme attention to detail, knowledge, preparation and confidence, the outcome would have been much different. Sir I thank you for your time and assistance through this difficult part of my life. Thank you again!

Highly Recommend

I found out my ex-girlfriend had filed for a protective order against me over the weekend (I hadn’t done anything to warrant that) and her court date was the day I found out. My sister found Mr Crighton on a Facebook page (a lot of people were highly recommending him) so, I contacted him immediately.... We went over everything that I knew over the phone and he met me at the courthouse that afternoon! Mr Crighton was amazing in the courtroom. My ex and I had a daughter and she was trying everything she could to get full custody of our daughter. With Mr Crighton by my side that didn’t happen, I ended up with shared custody and I am so glad I called him! He always answered my phone calls, emails and questions immediately! He made sure everything I wanted was granted and he made sure everything was completed correctly and fair! His charges were very reasonable. I highly recommend Mr Crighton and will use him again if ever needed!!
