Outstanding lawyer
As an out-of-town client needing to respond quickly to a divorce filing, I was fortunate to have found and hired Attorney Chris Schmitt.

Professional and knowledgeable legal advisor
Attorney Schmitt is a very professional legal advisor. He has been there every step of the way during my long, and ongoing, divorce process providing straightforward and timely guidance along the way.

Diligent
Mr. Schmitt was diligent, consistant and got the job done. We always waited for the other opposing counsel for a response. Be patient with him because it's not always his fault if he doesn't get back. Very reasonable cost wise and will work with you. Has a great secretary.

Caring and insightful
Christopher literally held my hand throughout the dissolution process. His pragmatic approach and attitude was backed up by what seemed like his nearly photographic memory recall of past cases. I couldn't possibly recommend more highly a family law attorney.
"I have opposed Attorney Schmitt on several cases. He is a strong advocate for his clients and a consummate professional with opposing counsel."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Schmitt and I have worked against one another on a number of Family Law cases in Wayne County, Ohio. He is a good lawyer and works hard for his clients best interests. He is friendly and easy to work with, often helping to solve problems instead of create them. Do not hesitate to give him a call if you need legal advice or representation."
