Reassuring

So far Mr. Hoerter is doing a great job. I got the impression that he listens to understand. He reiterated some of the things I was saying - he was on point. I am confident thus far that he has heard me. We are not done with litigation. However the trust between attorney and client is being estab...lish on good ground.

Very Impressive

Handled my case quickly, and efficiently. Very knowledgeable, and prompt in corresponding. He always answered my questions, phone calls and emails, immediately. He took time to actually listen to my concerns and treated me with respect. Chris had my felony charge, dropped to a 4th degree misdemeanor,... in just two months.

Great Representitive for average court hearings.

Very knowledgeable lawyer and knows how to present your case. I've contacted him and he handles all of his own calls. Classic kind of guy. He handles most forms of discrimination so I've read. Soon I hope he accepts my lawsuit as we have not yet spoken about it, Cheerios mate.

  • 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.
