Christopher Alton Skipper

I would highly recommend Chris Skipper to anyone who finds themselves in need of a lawyer they can truly trust to be on their side. From our first conversation, he treated me with respect, listened carefully, and never made me feel like “just another case.” He explained every step of the process i...n clear, straightforward terms, which helped calm a lot of my fears and uncertainty. Any time I had questions, he was responsive and thorough, making sure I understood my options and what might happen next. Most importantly, he made me feel like I had an advocate who genuinely cared about both the outcome and my well‑being. I always trusted that I was in good hands with his representation, and that confidence made a huge difference in getting through a difficult time.

There are no words to describe all Chris has done for our daughter and our family. She was in so much trouble we didn't know where to start. We were referred to Chris and would happily pay forward the referral. Chris attended a hearing on my daughter's behalf since she was in residential treatment at... the time. Chris was able to get her license rescinded after it was suspended for refusal to test for driving while intoxicated. Additionally, he negotiated with the prosecutor to drop all charges against her regarding a hit-and-run pending her completion of an 8-12 month residential rehabilitation program for troubled teens that we had already enrolled her in. He also helped us find a transportation company that escorted our daughter across the country to safely admit her to residential care for the traumatic mental distress she had been in. We also received a couple confusing notices, but we sent them to Chris and he took care of them so we could focus on our daughter. Our battle to heal our daughter is still far from over, but what made Chris stand out above the rest, is that he led us with compassion during all our distress, he was available at a moments notice and gave us comfort in the reality of the situation she was facing and hope that she would be given treatment of rehabilitation instead of punishment. We were not a "number" to Chris, we were human beings trying to save our daughter and he genuinely cared about that. Thank you Chris! You are a true God-send to our family!

I usually don't celebrate the accolades of many professionals vis-à-vis an online review, however, I was referred to Chris Skipper by a good friend and I felt his representation went above and beyond to ensure all facets of my needs and worries were addressed. I'm a business professional and thro...ugh the normal course of running and managing businesses as an entrepreneur, I've been exposed to a good bit of contracts, legal theory, case law, litigation and retaining the services of an attorney. That said however, Chris Skipper has an unparalleled knowledge of the law, procedures, local attorneys, legal requirements and has applied this knowledge and experience throughout the area in almost every municipality. When I retained Chris Skipper as my attorney I had a very specific need for his advice, representation and experience, I found throughout the entire process he was meticulous in explaining what to expect, how to proceed, what he needed from me, what options would probably present themselves, how he would get there and what he would recommend. The practice of law is not a science and there are never any guarantees, but I found Chris Skipper's approach to be very reassuring and knew at every step his help and advice were centered on my needs and what was best for me. I can't thank Chris Skipper enough for his patience, understanding of all the other stressors that were present in my life, for giving me a voice and ensuring my rights were at all times represented. There isn't a formula, unfortunately, for finding great legal representation and it's impossible to gauge an attorney's courtroom experience, ties to the local legal community and macro/micro knowledge of the law from an online listing or law firm website. My review is an attempt to not only thank Chris Skipper but hopefully help someone else navigate the frustrating process of finding an attorney.

Chris Skipper came highly recommended to us, by another local attorney, to help us with a situation our college aged son found himself in at a local University. Being out of state parents we were concerned that we weren’t there to help guide our son through this process but Chris was, every step of ...the way. He is a very professional, knowledgeable and compassionate lawyer who made our son, and us, feel very comfortable handling a very stressful situation. Communication was very important to us and he didn’t disappoint there, he kept us in the loop, guiding all of us throughout. The outcome was favorable and we have Chris to thank for that. As he was highly recommended to us, we highly recommend him too!!
