My First Choice For Legal Matters

Chris Hage gives lawyers a good name. I have found him to be so much more than just a bright and capable lawyer. He’s been an invaluable and indispensable partner in all my legal matters. Always clearly, patiently and objectively outlining my options, pros, cons and risks. I always feel empowered... to exercise my legal options with Chris in my corner.

Professional and reliable

I was going through a rough period in my life when I got pulled over after leaving an establishment. I spoke with a few attorneys but none of them seemed too interested or cared enough about my case to call me back. As soon as I met with Chris I could tell he was genuinely concerned about my troub...le and worked hard to clean my record. I could always get a hold of him and he was very thorough in his work.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
