Honest, knowledgeable

For those who are seeking honest advice then look no further than Mr. Blaine. I recently had a negative experience with Florida’s unfair (in my opinion) regulations regarding people with Disabilities being able to drive. I did not lose my licensee but was unnecessarily targeted when I went to chang...e my address at the FL DMV and was forced into Florida’s Medical Review Process (MRP). Mr. Blaine’s knowledge and experience with the MRP is impressive. I have never dealt with an Attorney who personally and patiently spent his time during an initial inquiry listening to me. More importantly, an Attorney who was able to communicate to me an honest assessment with examples and/or specifics, ultimately giving me more than enough information to make an informed decision in moving forward or not. For those of you who are looking for an Attorney who cares, who listens, and who has the expertise call Mr. Blaine. He is beyond 5 stars. Thank you Mr. Blaine.

Capable, Responsive, and Friendly

In the days leading up to the holidays, I was driving home for lunch, not paying much attention to my speed...turns out, I was over the speed limit. My heart sank when I saw the undercover Charger (all too frequent on Tampa Rd.), lights ablaze, speeding up behind me. The interaction with the PCSO d...eputy was short and friendly, but left me with a sizeable fine. After doing a bit of research and sending an e-mail inquiry, Attorney Blaine reached out to me to discuss the situation and viable options. Attorney Blaine was concise, reasonably priced, and had enough experience with my predicament to make me feel comfortable with a game plan. Within the same day that we first spoke, he had me entered in to his client portal, representation contract sent to me for e-signature, and a notice of appearance/plea filed with the clerk. A couple of days before my arraignment, I reached out to Attorney Blaine to cover a few last minute questions, he immediately answered the phone, confirmed that all of the pieces were in place, and made me feel comfortable. After the hearing took place, Attorney Blaine called me personally to let me know that everything had been concluded just as we had hoped - adjudication withheld, no points, no defensive driving class, and instructions to pay the fine. Thanks Attorney Blaine!

Case Closed

Mr. Christopher paid attention to details and was very professional/knowledgable about handling my case. He made sure I understood what options I had in case of any alternative outcomes that may be presented. I had such a hard time looking for a lawyer since I recently moved here however, Mr. Christ...opher made me feel like he understood my situation without being bias and did not make me feel like I was being targeted in any way. His expertise during court was immaculate. I would recommend him for sure, great lawyer! Thank you again for your integrity, it did not go unnoticed.

Questionable traffic citation

Mr Blaine did a good job explaning the options and sharing his expert experience with the possible outcomes and the options available, his explanation was clear, and to the point, his knowledge regarding the issues was accurate.

Case Resolved

Chris was professional and understanding in handling a unique charge brought against me by Pinellas County. He took a felony driving charge and got it reduced to a non moving ticket. Only through his efforts with the State was this possible. Completely satisfied with result.
