Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
"Chris is a great attorney. Early in my career I had the opportunity to litigate a civil rights case against Chris. He was respectful to my clients throughout the process. Chris is the type of attorney every client should have."
"Chris Roach is my law partner and friend. We have worked together as law partners since 2015. I first met him while working as opposing counsel on a personal injury case. I know it may seem like I am serving myself by endorsing him, but I can honestly say he is a brilliant lawyer. There are few lawyers I have met that can know the law quite like he does. He is an exceptional trial lawyer and I would recommend him for criminal defense, civil rights, and DUI law. I could say more, but I'll keep this short."
