Great Lawyer and Great Results

Mr. Christopher represented me in a rear end motor vehicle collision case in which I sufferred neck and low back spine injuries. These injuires required injections and surgery was recommended. Mr. Christopher obtained maximum settlement values from multiple insurance policies. He was always person...ally available to speak with me when I needed him and he explained everthing to me. Mr. Christopher was a great attorney.

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.
