I am much obliged to give report for the assistance in the dismissal of my past circumstance and recommend the practice of The Chris Tolbert Law Firm to any and all in need of council. I wish you great success in all your future endeavors Chris! Thanks for advocating on my behalf.

Genuinely concerned and does what he says. Period.

Chris Tolbert was assigned as my court appointed attorney in a Class B misdemeanor case. Having gone through the court system before with Attorneys chosen for me, I anticipated the same type of responsiveness from Chris. Boy was I wrong!! Mr. Tolbert put me at ease when we met at my initial court app...earance. He carries his title confidently and arranged a plea that I wouldn't have considered. Chris was my attorney and also like a cool friend that knew the ins and outs and wouldn't accept anything less than the best he could offer. Chris Tolbert obviously is in that group of people that don't intimidate others with their position. He absolutely did more than show up not knowing my name, facts about my case, and he even remembered my family and worked an agreement with my 2 toddlers in mind. I can't describe how much Chris has to offer anyone that retains him. If I'm EVER in need of an attorney for any matter I'll turn to Chris Tolbert a man of integrity, confidence, and true to his word.

Must Use for ANY Legal situations !

We have used him in a few different legal matters. In which he did an amazing job. We were Afraid of the typical outcome and potential long term jail time in such cases. His dedication and proficiency of the law resulted to a more than satisfying judgement. We are grateful he represented us. I am sur...e he will do a great job for you as well.

Great and very dedicated

I received a order of non disclosure for felony conviction. Mr. Tolbert handle everything from filing paperwork, dealing with state District attorney and getting the order of non disclosure sign by judge. Everything went very well. I showed up for my hearing and was very impressed with how fast he g...ot everything completed. It was a very smooth process and I was out of court in 15 minutes. Mr. Tolbert work was excellent and now has given me the chance to move forward. I'm very blessed to have him as my lawyer.
