This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent lawyer

I’ve dealt with many lawyers due to the nature of my business and I can safely say that Chris is by far, the best I’ve ever had. I initially hired Chris for a trust but I was so happy with him that he now also does my corporate work. His advice has been spot on and the quality of his work is excelle...nt. He responds quickly and is a genuinely nice guy.

NEVER PAID IN FRONT

I hire Mr Vasallo to make a trust, I paid in front $5.300, In the end I never received anything because my trustee was a foreiner and do not have any tax benefits. I never received trust. he never give a call back. Be very carefull and NEVER paid in front.

Client Review

I used Mr. Vasallo for a business name change 2 years ago and was thrilled with his thoroughness and promptness. I again went to him to set up my husband’s and I‘s will. Not only did Mr. Vasallo sit with us and explain every aspect of the documents but upon receiving them, he again went through any... questions that we still had. I will continue to use Mr. Vasallo for all of my legal needs. I would also recommend him to all of my business colleagues as well as friends.

From start to finish my trust documents were processed with diligence, expertise, and a realistic approach. Chris is easy to understand and speaks with sincerity. I highly recommend him for your estate planning work.

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.
