Posted by Nicole | September 08, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Litigation

Excellent medical malpractice / negligence attorney

My husband and I had an extremely complicated medical negligence suit with multiple Defendants. It was a long, drawn out, and uphill battle from day 1 that took a toll on all of us, but Chris worked night and day to win our case. He spent hours upon hours reviewing medical records and researching p...olicies and standards. Ultimately, together with his partner Stuart Burns, they crafted an air tight defense that brought a large settlement in our favor on day 1 of trial. I cannot say enough about what a pleasure it is to work with Chris, or what a phenomenal job he does. I would refer my own family to him without hesitation.

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.
