I can't recommend Kris enough. He handled my case expertly and was the only lawyer in the Blacksburg/Christiansburg area who was confident he could get a positive outcome. I was initially hesitant to go with him, because he quoted me the LOWEST retainer fee, and I know you don't want to go with the cheapest lawyer, but he got my charges dismissed. Super friendly and maintained great communication throughout the process. He does free consultations, and I came in again a year later with a minor traffic charge, and he told me I didn't need his services and that that particular judge was likely to offer traffic school as an option, so Kris is not pushy and doesn't try to sell you what you don't need.
Kristopher Olin goes far above and beyond for his clients. He is down to earth, easy to talk to, and sincerely compassionate. Mr. Olin keeps lines of communication open and is easy to reach, and he responds quickly to all the emails I have sent him. His staff is outstanding, and I’ve been treated with dignity and respect from the very start. I would highly recommend Kristopher Olin to anyone who needs legal counsel, and I am beyond grateful for the reputable person that he is and thankful for the countless ways he has helped me.

Kris is an excellent lawyer. Knowledgeable and professional. His paralegal Heather is always friendly and quick to respond to any questions. Overall, they made our experience pleasant and we will use them in the future. Highly recommended.

Riding on Stern while Underway
Mr. Olin greatly helped me out on my summons for Riding on Stern while Underway. He went to court in my place and had my charges dismissed under the condition that I did a few hours of community service and take a boating class. Excellent service, very professional and replies to emails and calls within a few hours. I highly recommend him.

Honest and great communication
Kris recently represented me when I got charged with a DUI. I've never been in any legal trouble before and was very nervous about the process. I can't imagine a better scenario than having Kris as my lawyer. From our first meeting, he was very honest and nonjudgmental. He told me all the possible outcomes and I had no surprises throughout our time working together. I felt free and was encouraged to contact him via phone or email with any questions. He was always very quick to respond and was available for any additional meetings I requested. He made the process smooth and easy to navigate.

Would Highly Recommend Him To Anyone
I would highly recommend Kris to any friends that I now. I got in a small amount of legal trouble for the first time ever, and he helped me through every step of the process. There weren't any surprises, he told me how everything was going to turn out up front. Very professional and effective.

So helpful!
Kris represented me in a child support dispute. He was wonderful to work with! Always got back to me within hours of me calling! My toddler came in for the initial visit with me and Kris was GREAT with him! Very professional and I would gladly work with him again!
