Chris Lake is as good as they get! Chris practices on a high-level and he guided me through my legal problems.

Chris handled my very complex legal problems with professionalism and with a high-level of expertise. I have dealt with many attorneys in the business world. Chris is perhaps the best attorney I have ever encountered. He is personal and candid. He handled my matter in a timely basis and it was on... budget. I highly recommend Chris.

Christopher Martin Lake's Lawyer Endorsements

Endorse Christopher
Phillip A. Linder headshot
Phillip Linder

Family lawyer | Oct 06

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I highly endorse this lawyer. I first met Chris Lake when I worked as an opposing counsel in a case against him. The case and the clients were highly contentious-requiring a three day mediation. I was so impressed with his abilities and the ethical way in which he handled the case that he has now become my firm's go to referral for family law cases. He has all the requisite intelligence and ability of the sharpest family lawyers, yet his ethics and desire for peaceful resolution, where possible, leads him to find creative solutions where others fail."

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.
