Thankful

Attorney Bechler told me not to worry about mt case until it was time to go to court. Plaintiff did not show up and he made sure the case was not continued. Got a bogus case against me dismissed. Salute

The Iron Man Lawyer

I don’t think anyone wants to be in a place where they need to hire a lawyer, especially in criminal litigation. However, if you need to do that, you would be doing a major disservice to yourself by not hiring Chris Beechler with Beechler Tomberlin. Chris is by far one of the best white-collar la...wyers I have ever met/hired. This is coming from someone who knows/works with some of the top entertainment/sports lawyers in the country and interacts with white-collar executives/A-list professionals. Chris demonstrates a C-suite level skill set, superb litigation knowledge, and white-glove professionalism. If that doesn’t turn your head then his stats just might persuade you: - He made the top 2% of NC lawyers to enter the Rising Stars - for excellence in litigation. - He made the top 5% of NC lawyers to be accepted as a Super Lawyer. - for excellence and professionalism. - He was awarded the AV Preeminent - one of the highest awards to be received by lawyers. To top this off he is about 1 of 4 lawyers in NC that handles state & federal litigation issues - demonstrating a high level of expertise. Chris has a stunning court record. His impressive work on my case got him dubbed as the “Iron Man Lawyer”. Chris expertly assessed my situation with care and sympathy. He understood it from start to finish and gave quality play-by-play actions that in the end, got impressive results. Of course, you have to follow his advice. He sets clear expectations and comes from the viewpoint of underselling and over-delivering. He WILL work around the clock for you and is never “unreachable”. He treats everyone with the highest respect and professional care. He and the firm are a well-oiled machine and work beyond expectations. His paralegal Amy is amazing; demonstrating elite support that knocks it out of the park. If I know anything about great support, it is that in business, you’re dead in the water if you do not have it. After the dust settled Chris and Amy didn’t quit, they filed final motions to set me up for success before I even asked. Thanks, guys for your help. Sincerely

Great attorney!

Attorney Beechler made my difficult situation way easier to handle. He shows that he truly cares. If I ever had a question he has always been easy to get ahold of and he’s very communicative. He will make sure to get the best possible outcome for your case.
