Estate Litigation-Highly Recommend

About eighteen months ago, my father passed away. My mother had previously passed away in 2009. The Trust that they created jointly in 2004 was an absolute mess. It had been amended several times by attorneys who didn't practice in this area, and it was extremely confusing. Because of t...he vagueness, it lead to litigation among the beneficiaries. We retained Chris to represent our portion of the Estate. Chris was able to guide us, step by step, through the process of Estate litigation. He was extremely well prepared for depositions and hearings alike. Although the case was settled before a final hearing, we always felt confident with Chris representing our interests because he knew the case as well as we did and anticipated all issues and potential weaknesses that we didn't even see. Would recommend him for anything in the Estate Planning or Estate Litigation realm!

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.
