Chris Royer is an excellent lawyer

I highly recommend Chris Royer. Chris helped me win my overpayment case with ODJFS. She is an absolute expert at unemployment law. I was not nervous for my hearing. Chris told me exactly how the hearing would proceed and prepped me with the questions and answers I could expect. She was very easy... to contact and got back to me through email or text right away. Chris is very passionate about the law. She is also down to earth. I definitely could relate to her.

CHRIS ROYER IS FANTASTIC

Chris Royer helped me tremendously with my employer issue. I came to her with no idea where to turn, and she spent so much time with me, gave great advice and absolutely took my issue seriously. She is very honest and will tell you her expert opinion, even if its hard to hear. Her in depth review of... my issue and friendly texts and advice were so appreciated. She is so intelligent, articulate and very personable. I cant recommend her enough.

Unemployment Appeal Hearing

Christina Royer did an excellent job with my consultation. I provided her with the details of my unemployment appeal telephone hearing before the Unemployment Compensation Review Commission. She consulted and provided a very thorough review and evaluation of my case, the strong points and weak points.... She gave me a 5 of 10 to 6 in 10 chance of prevailing. She ultimately recommended that I represent myself in the telephone hearing, which I did. Christina was very friendly and helpful every step of the way, providing the perfect mix of professionalism, compassion and moral support. She even helped me after the hearing with advice, recommending against a further appeal of the adverse decision. I would like to highly recommend Christina Royer as an excellent attorney in the field of unemployment law.

Great Experience - Highly recommened!

I had a great experience working with Ms. Royer on my separation negotiation with my former employer. She was a pleasure to work with, and so helpful. It really came across that she cared for her client and she had my best interest first. She listened to my case, understood the background and immedia...tely got to work on a suggested action plan, but still considered my input and intuition. Ms. Royer's communication throughout the process was great, as she kept me informed and updated me promptly every step of the way. My case was quickly resolved with a positive outcome.

Christina expertly guided, advised, and represented me through a very difficult time with a former employer. Being two states apart, all of our interaction was via phone and email and yet she was able to make me feel very comfortable immediately and kept me from losing my marbles. I would not hesitat...e to call on her again should that need arise.

  • 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.
