"Chris Sharkey is a brilliant attorney. Criminal defense is his specialty. He is who I turn to about the hard cases. Do not ignore his civil litigation skills. Chris is very insightful and will save his clients time and money because he knows what will work and he knows what will simply buy time and cost money.
