Thank you Chris

Chris was recommended to us by a friend during the darkest, most terrifying time of our lives. Our family was falling apart, and we were scared and overwhelmed. When I reached out, he called me back on a Saturday, met with us that Monday, and stayed late just to make sure we felt heard and supported.... That alone meant more than he probably knows. Our case involved a false accusation and a medically complex child. From the very beginning, Chris saw what we saw, that it didn’t make sense. He never tried to turn us against each other or take the easy route. Instead, he cared deeply about the truth and about keeping our family together. At a time when it felt like no one was listening, Chris did. We lived with this nightmare for almost a year. Chris stood up to CPS without hesitation and wasn’t afraid to say no when it mattered. Because of his commitment, perseverance, and belief in us, the case ended with no criminal charges and, most importantly, our children were reunited back home where they belong. Chris was in it for the long haul, and we will forever be grateful for the role he played in saving our family.

Tuff experience made easy

I highly recommend his services. From the very beginning, he was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to my needs. He took the time to explain everything clearly and kept me informed throughout the process. He handled my case with confidence and care. I especially appreciated his responsiveness... and willingness to answer all my questions, no matter how small. My case was resolved efficiently and with a positive outcome. If you're looking for a lawyer that truly puts clients first, look no further than Christopher Coleridge.

Amazing lawyer

Chris is an excellent lawyer, he represented our godson in a case out of portage County. He was always professional, courteous, and very empathetic to the case and our godson. He was always prompt to respond to phone calls and texts, even if it was after hours. He explained the case and our godson‘s ...options, very clear and precise. I would highly recommend Chris if you want a professional hands-on lawyer

Great lawyer !

Very knowledgeable and respected throughout the system in all counties! In two separate occasions attorney Coleridge was hassle free and not only got felonies dropped to misdemeanors in one case the whole case was DISMISSED! Great guy on a personal level as well and always kept me in the loop. Was c...ontactable at any time and responded quickly. The judges respect this guy and one even told me I quote " listen to your lawyer, he knows what he's doing" and I did just that. Well worth the price .

Absolutely one of the best lawyers around

My case started off with two felonies seven misdemeanors. Chris handled it like a champ. Got every single felony dropped all of my misdemeanors. I walked away with one misdemeanor after all of that no jail time. Never even seen in jail cell and threw it all. He was kind, caring and always there for m...e when I needed to talk about the case. Any questions I had he answered. If I could give him more than five stars I'd give him a hundred. Hopefully I don't have to but if I did I would use him and a million times over highly highly highly recommend. As such I have had good friends and their family members use. Chris is a go-getter. He will make it so you don't see any jail time and your charges will be dropped. Most likely if he can find a way there is a way. Thank you Chris so much. It's finally over!
