Chris did a great job!!!
He was very professional, educated in the charges I was up against and thorough with his investigation with my case. He got my DWI dismissed in a trial. I HIGHLY recommend his services to anyone with a serious case such as mine was.

DWI reduces to lesser offense
Chris did a great job for me with my DWI. He got it reduced to a lesser offense that I was more than happy about. I got time served without any Court costs or fine. It was worth the money. I would highly recommend him to work your DWI case.

The DA tried several different tricks and he was prepared for them all. I would recommend and use Chris again. Needless to...
