Great Attorney

I would highly recommend Chris as an attorney. He handled everything we needed and put our minds at ease in a very scary and stressful time. He was straightforward, empathetic, and always available for our many questions. Very thankful for him!

Great Attorney - Great Person

The very day our world crashed, Chris met with me and took our son's case. After talking with him, I knew he was the one. We had no idea where to go, or what to do. Chris took care of everything and walked us through every step. He was honest and forthcoming with all info. When I finally did get to... speak with the asst. DA (in another city) about our case, he told me that he would hire Chris over any lawyer he has dealt with if he ever needed one for his child. We knew Chris was an amazing attorney, but to hear the opposing side say he is the best, really proves it. He was a true Godsend!

Not a better defense attorney in Mclennan County right now

I recently was appointed Chris in the 19th district court on an sjf. My perception of court appointed attorneys had been that indigent offenders were not provided the same level of representation as paying clients, may be subject to "being traded" and that they attempted all they could to get you to... plea, avoid a trial, or go any extra steps. For these reasons I was prepared at my first meeting to tell Chris I would be hiring an attorney. But at that meeting Chris informed me he had filed all the necessary motions prior to us meeting. He was one step ahead at all phases. From day one he stated what I wanted to do is what would be done, he did what most lawyers forget these days- His job. Representing, ME and my exact wishes, and fighting for them, all in a timely and professional manner. He communicates well, he is respected in the courtroom, and he has experience from both sides defense and prosecution. I walked away pleading to a misdemeanor, no jail time or fines. The only way you do not hire this guy is if you don't want the best chance of winning for yourself.

Good man good attorney

When my son was arrested we felt like our world had shattered. Having never experienced anything dealing with the Feds, we were at a complete loss as to how to proceed. Mr. Bullajian being appointed to represent our son was a Godsend. He helped us navigate our way through this confusing and often d...iscouraging ordeal. He always seemed to genuinely care about the case, while still keeping things professional. I always felt like he was being honest and sincere. We could not have been assigned a better attorney.
