Helped me out with my case
I called Mr. Cavazos when I caught a case in Pleasanton. It was important that I not have a case on my record because of my job. Mr Cavazos took care of the case and I was able to keep my job.

False promises
Spoke to Chris once. He promised to always be available, I could call or text any time. Hired the firm and never heard from him again. All text and phone calls went unanswered. Bait and switch. I would not recommend.

Criminal defense Attorney | Apr 18
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
"I've had the opportunity of being co-counsel on trials in Bexar County and also opposing counsel on criminal matters.

Criminal defense Attorney | Jul 21
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
"I endorse this lawyer. Chris is as real as it gets. His straight-forward approach and ability to issue spot are some of his many positive attributes. If you get caught up give him a call, it will be well worth it!"
Criminal defense Attorney | Jul 12
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
"I have known Christopher for nearly a decade. We have worked together on cases as well as fought against each other as opposing counsel on numerous occasions. Mr. Cavazos has the increasingly rare asset of being able to effectively advocate for clients at such a high level that often times cases don't make it to trial due to his pre-trial negotiation skills. If they do make it to trial though, Chris has an incredible amount of experience in the courtroom, which make him a rarity in the criminal defense world. I enthusiastically endorse him."
Domestic violence Attorney | Jul 03
Relationship: Worked together on matter
"Chris is one of the most intelligent and compassionate advocates that I know. Rarely, will you see a more laid back and appealing trial attorney. He has a way of relating to every juror in every case, and it has always worked to the benefit of his clients."
Criminal defense Attorney | Mar 26
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
"Chris is always easy to work with but tough about protecting his clients. Just as a good lawyer should be. I endorse this lawyer."
Criminal defense Attorney | Nov 11
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
"Chris is well-respected around the courts for his courtroom demeanor and preparation. He takes his cases seriously and is well-read in any potential issues that may arise during a case. Any client would be lucky to have Chris representing them."
Criminal defense Attorney | Aug 21
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
