Christopher Mackensen Thornhill

Our problem with this guy/firm is that he did NOT keep his word to my wife and I about what he told us that he would do for us if we hired him! In separate conversations that he had with my wife and myself, his “SALES PITCH” was that he/we would go after insurance company/agent first and if agent ...wouldn’t settle(he was very sure tho that agent would settle easily), that next step(plan B), would be to go after insurance company/agent! Again, he thought insurance company would EASILY settle with us(WE HV A NO BRAINER CASE, WE HV OVER 100 PICS OF CONSTRUCTION FLAWS THAT WERE DONE TO OUR HOME THAT WERE CAUSED BY SORRY INEXPERIENCED CONTRACTORS THAT WE HAD HIRED), CT even came to our home and saw first hand our “PROBLEMS” and again he assured us that this should be a slam dunk case! BUT, for some WEIRD/UNKNOWN reason(at least to us) insurance company denied claim and NOW CT is basically telling us that going after insurance company/agent isn’t going to happen(?), isn’t an option now and he’s now wanting us to go after SORRY/BROKE contractors who have NO $$$(who so far have offered to pay us $1k less than what we pd CT), so hiring him was totally a huge WASTE OF TIME! I/we wouldn’t have ever hired the guy, pd him $2,500 if the last resort would have been to go after BROKE contractors who at best would only walk away with a judgment against them. I specifically went over in our conversation what plan B would be and it was going after insurance company! And one can easily type in online “can an insurance company be sued if they turn down a claim” and the answer is YES!!! I’m not sure what happened here but just like with TYPICAL SORRY ATTORNEYS, they want u to pay them a good $ amount upfront and then there’s really no incentive to do what they were hired to do! That $2,500 was just a little weekend spending $ for him, I’m sure that he has a GR8 weekend spending it and now it’s basically “SCREW U” to us! NOT COOL/NOT RIGHT!!!

Back in 2006 I had debt troubles. I was sued by a company that purchased the debt. I was never served the law suit and not knowing about the case i lost and had a default judgement placed against me. I never heard a word on this case until last year when i was contacted by a attorney acting as a ...receiver to collect the debt. By now this debt had ballooned up to 15k+. This receiver then had my bank account froze. I talked to serveral other lawyers and wasnt presented much hope. I spoke with Chris and he assured me he could help. He was very straight forward, honest and professional. He was easy to speak with and very realistic about all the possible outcomes, even bad ones but was confident he could help. Long story short, because i was never served we filed a Bill of Review that got rid of the judgement. The original case was reopened and was dismissed. I settled with debt holder for 1k, which obviously is a fraction of the 15k+. This was an awful situation but i was extremely pleased with how Chris was abled to solve this problem.

Chris took over our case after John. He continued working on our behalf just as John had. One creditor, Discover, was relentless and insisted that we go to court. Chris assured us that we would win and less than a week before our trial date it was settled. Chris not only got them to drop the suit..., which is what I was expecting, he actually won a judgement in our favor so they can't try to come after us later. Thank you, Chris and all your team.

Due to my unfortunate circumstances in the 2008 Real Estate market I hired Mastriani Law Firm because I had a massive amount of debt. I heard (from to other Law Firms) that they were the best. Chris Thornhill was honest, extremely informative, helpful, and excellent! John Mastriani was brilliant in t...he court room! Chris and John informed me of what was possible and if I chose to dispute the multiple cases against me and that there was a good chance, not a guarantee, but a good chance we could win. I had been through the ringer! I was tired. I was depressed. I couldn't sleep at night and I was stressed out. After years of worrying Mastriani Law Firm took care of it all and erased $240,000. of debt! Unbelievable, I am ecstatic! I would highly recommend hiring Mastriani Law Firm.
