Highly Recommended

Mr. Garrett handled my case with professionalism and achieved an outstanding result. Angela was extremely helpful throughout the process and she was always easy to communicate with. I would definitely recommend Mr. Garrett and his team if you were to need legal assistance.

This man is incredible.

He helped me when other lawyers wouldnt touch my case. And my original lawyer was insisting i go back to jail over a technicality. He went through everything with me step by step and helped by representing me; and encouraging me to represent myself to show character to the judge. I hope i never need ...him again. But if i or any friends need help. Chris garret is the first call i am making.

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.
