Outstanding Lawyer!

We selected Chris based upon these reviews. And we are so thankful we did. He was professional, thorough, and approachable. He helped us navigate through a difficult situation and helped take some of the stress off the family. He is absolutely someone you'd like in your corner representing you. A ...down-to-earth, high-quality individual and THE best legal service you could ever hope for. I'd recommend him without hesitation. Call him, you'll be so glad you did! THANK YOU CHRIS!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
