Christopher Martin Lake

Mr. Chris Lake delivers! He understood my unique situation and crafted a plan that would give me the desired outcome. He has an uncanny ability to understand people and deal with those people in the best possible way and in the timeframe needed. He did not delay! He and his amazing paralegal, Mrs. Ca...rol White, jumped in to help on a weekend when we needed to move quickly. Mr. Lake treated me professionally and with respect at each meeting. He commented or asked about me or my work whenever we visited without spending much time on anything that was not case-related. Mr. Lake was available and accessible to me and was even proactive to check on me. He worked hard, and while getting the job done, he also gave me practical advice for my situation. He helped me to see the worst-case scenarios and gave me hope that with his help we could avoid those undesirable outcomes. Mr. Lake did what he said he would do and even quicker than promised. Most importantly, he understood my situation and was able to help me succeed in getting the outcome that I desired. Mr. Lake delivers.

Eight years ago I hired Chris and he skillfully negotiated what could have been a tricky divorce for me due to having to determine the value of my dental practice. Through collaborative law, we arrived at a fair (and agreed upon) value without having to bring in expensive "experts" to help. He also... assisted me just 6 months ago when I made the shocking discovery that my ex-husband had stolen and switched out the diamond in my old wedding ring with a CZ. That was QUICKLY resolved thanks to Chris' excellent demand letter!

I went through a very difficult time in my life, an indescribable experience that I am still battling with the consequences of. I was referred to Mr. Lake by a mutual friend and he agreed to take me as a client. Mr. Lake not only gave me his knowledge and expertise regarding the law, he gave me the... support I desperately needed. The legal system can be very intimidating and confusing and at times I became very frustrated and discouraged. He made sure I understood the details, every step of the way, and gave me the encouragement I needed to continue to move forward with this battle. He is ethical, beyond fair and a fierce advocate who will go above and beyond to make sure the needs of his clients are met. There are not enough things I can say to tell you how much Mr. Lake has helped me and how much I appreciate everything he has done for me.
