No one better!

I came to Chris to change my custody arrangement. From the start he has been immensely informative, compassionate, and kind. He is also very direct in why to expect and how he can help you. He never fails to call or email me back and keep me up to date on my case. I very much feel like I am venting t...o a friend instead of commiserating with my attorney. I would not hesitate to recommend Chris to anyone! He is amazing and deserves every five star review he gets.

The Greatest

Chris Coleridge was court appointed after my last court appointed attorney In the same case. Thankful to the judge for Chris who actually cared and did the best job I could ask for. The last attorney wouldn’t speak to me nor listen to a word I ever said. He made me cry every time I saw him for 2 min...utes speaking to him each time. Every time I cried. This attorney saved my day and so much more. He was kind Understanding and Very thorough. As well as so much more! He needs more stars than 5 in my book :)

Custody

I was referred to Chris by someone that spoke very highly of him. When I first spoke with Chris I was panicked and not sure what to do next, he talked to me like I was already his client and gave me a direct plan of what he could do. When I finally went in to talk to him he already has a whole game p...lan of what we should do. Unfortunately, my situation was weird and I wasn’t sure how I wanted to proceed for at least a month. Chris dealt with me constantly changing my mind, constantly going back and forth with what I felt I wanted to do. He NEVER got upset with me, impatient with me, or made me feel rushed or that I was running out of time. I told him multiple times I appreciated his patience because my history with lawyers has not been the same. I will recommend Chris to anyone and everyone looking for a lawyer that actually cares about their clients. I will never contact another lawyer again because that’s how great Chris made me feel!! 10/10!

I’d choose Chris every time

It’s so important to have a lawyer that not only knows what they are doing and is clearly comfortable in their role but someone that can make you feel at ease while going through an extremely stressful time. Chris was my representation during a Protection Order/ Domestic Violence case. This was undou...btably one of the most nerve wracking scenarios I’ve ever been in and Chris quite literally saved me in every level. I had no idea what I was doing and during a time where you just wanna lay your cards down and give up Chris ensured me I was within my rights to push harder to protect myself and facilitated every detail that was important to me. He kept me informed and calm. In the end my case went exactly the way I needed it to go and it is solely due to Chris’s expertise and attention to detail. Thank you Chris! Would highly recommend

Best Attorney Ever !

Mr. Coleridge was a very up front and honest man from the very beginning of my case . He genuinely cared about me as a client from day 1 . He always communicated with me about the status of my case and explained everything in a manner i could understand . He made sure to listen to me throughly . I wa...s being charged with Aggravated Menacing and Falsification . He knew this case was bs from the start . My situation involved a firearm and a do have my CCW . My case ended up going to trial and he made sure i was well prepared . He presented all positive evidence in my case to support our defense . He questioned all witnesses on their credibility and was extremely detailed oriented . He also presented video footage on my behalf that supported conflict with the witness statements and what they indicted under oath . We won the trial !!! I was found NOT guilty . I was extremely satisfied with his services . I appreciate everything Mr. Coleridge did on my behalf . I would recommend him to anyone in need of a criminal defense attorney . I can not thank you enough .

  • 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.
