Professional, Kind, & Excellent

Chris handled my stressful real estate dispute and made all the difference!!! He’s calm, responsive, and truly listens. He explained everything clearly, answered my questions quickly, and always put my interests first. His empathy and steady guidance took a huge weight off my shoulders. Chris is pro...fessional, prepared, and genuinely cares about his clients. If you need a solid, reliable attorney, I recommend Chris Ebbott without hesitation!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have known Chris for many years. I have had the pleasure of working together on numerous matters with him. He is a thoughtful, detail oriented lawyer who understands the key issues in any case and always has his client's best interests in mind. He communicates efficiently with his clients and keeps them apprised throughout their legal process. Chris is a professional in all regards and his demeanor is one of civility. I strongly endorse his professional ability and his ethics. I trust his ability such that I have referred several clients to him for legal representation. He has provided nothing less than excellent legal representation."

"Preparation wins cases and Attorney Ebbott is always prepared. I once heard a Judge's secretary refer to him as having the most dignified court presence she as ever seen, which is quite remarkable compliment when consider she has been working in the court system for over twenty years. Attorney Ebbott works in a practice area which is known for questionable ethics, but he dispels that stereotype because his ethics are beyond reproach. But those reasons are not why I refer clients to him, I refer clients to his office because he wins lawsuits and get results for his clients."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
