Ranks at Top of my Good Choices

My grandson was in trouble and facing an OVI conviction, among other things. I didn't know what to do but, luckily, the first lawyer I contacted was Chris Coleridge. I'm telling you it looked bleak. Somehow, he got the charges down to a speeding ticket and a minor charge, with no ovi!. I was shocked.... He basically kept my grandson from a lifetime OVI mark. You better believe my grandson, my daughter and I are carrying his card. His associate, Laura, is great to work with as well. I'm giving my highest recommendation.

Excellent Lawyer

Chris Coleridge is an excellent attorney and very knowledgeable about the law and what comes with it. He was able to get my charges down by a lot and saved me a lot of pain and hassle at my own expense. 100% recommend him to anyone needing a phenomenal criminal lawyer.

Best Decision EVER

Chris Coleridge may be an attorney by profession, but I’m convinced that he’s also a wizard!! I made a very bad choice that landed me in what seemed like an impossible position with very serious consequences and no way out – an OVI charge with an enhancement (high BAC). I had so many worries about... money, the ability to maintain a job a had worked very hard to earn, my ability to drive, my freedoms, money, etc. With the recommendation of a trusted friend, I contacted Chris Coleridge for a consultation and immediately knew that he was my best chance. He put my mind at ease, as best as anyone could have, and helped me navigate the situation every step of the way. Much to my astonishment, the entire thing was over within just a few weeks. I had absolutely no case, but somehow he miraculously managed to negotiate a plea to a lesser charge of physical control. The weight that lifted from my shoulders that day was immense!! It was such a relief. Honestly, a miracle! I know every situation is different and results can never be guaranteed, but I can tell you that Chris Coleridge cares about his clients and will do everything is his power to fight for them and get the best possible result!! If you’re in an impossible situation, Chris Coleridge is my first recommendation for sure, no matter who you are! Thank you, Mr. Coleridge, for the second chance this afforded me!! I’m forever grateful!

100% Satisfied

STOP!! You must be looking for an Attorney if you are reading the reviews to help in your decision. Based on our recent course case and the first time we have used Attorney Coleridge, I am sure your quest is now over. Chris is a no-nonsense person. He listens to you and encourages you to ask ques...tions. He will tell you the worst-case scenario you might be faced with then let you know in great detail what he will do to make the outcome to be in your favor. He just exhumed strong confidence and he is passionate about winning for his clients. My adult daughter had charges that could have turned ugly. Things from her past came creeping up (Teen years and young adult years - she is now 40) Her Mom and I stood by her and as she sat with Chris she was falling apart and crying, he also stood by her. Never did he talk down to her and constantly reassured her that she would be fine. He did what he said and the outcome was very positive. I can't say enough about his character and work ethic. Oh, he might come out with a cuss word or two but that is just him getting worked up over your case and winning. You will not be sorry to have Chris represent you or your family!!

This attorney deserves a 10 star rating not a 5!

Chris can do it all! There’s are not enough words to even describe what an his passion and determination makes him exemplary in serving his clients. Attorney Coleridge makes it known to his clients that they are a priority and he does an outstanding job in comforting them during the situation they ar...e going through. He is straight forward while he takes the time and explains the law, outlines it in clear language each of the steps in the process that needs to be done to make sure his clients can know what they are to expect moving forward. Attorney Coleridge is so committed to assisting each and every one of his clients that there have been times I have needed to reach out to him for questions or concerns I may have had about my situation outside of business hours and he always promptly got back with me, he is not just an 8am-5pm attorney, he puts in all the time he possibly can to help his client. It is truly comforting and reassuring to have someone like Attorney Coleridge be a legal advocate not only for myself but for many others as well. He undoubtedly exceeds expectations that other defense attorneys simply do not. Chris is a devotee to obtaining justice for his clients and will not rest until he has exhausted all avenues to ensure that he is achieving the beat possible outcome possible for their situation. I have more confidence in Chris then any other attorney that I have ever worked with. If you are looking for someone to respresent you who is reassuring,articulate,knowledgeable, and effective then Christopher Coleridge is your guy! You will NOT be disappointed but rather feel blessed to have found him. Chris, I thank you with all of my heart, not just for the effortless time you put into my case and making a miracle happen for me but for also believing in me, thank I’m itself makes you a hero!!
