Chris handles all my business legal needs as well as the needs for my clients ( I am a CPA and team with Chris on several clients). He listens carefully to the client and handles any issue professionally and in a timely manner. Simpy put, he provides five-star service, and I have always gotten posi...tive feedback from clients I have referred to him. A+

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
