Very knowledgeable
So far Chris has been very responsive to my emails and following up with my questions. He seems to know quite a bit about "the system" and I am hopeful that my case will dissolve here quickly. He seems to truly care about my situation, and that itself is a breath of fresh air. Having an attorney t...

Crappy lawyer!!!!
This lawyer is VERY rude, disrespectful and unprofessional. After a loooonngggggg time of going through a divorce with Chris McHam representing me, he has literally done nothing. He charges me for the mistakes that HE makes; and then they're not even correct- like misspelling my name and takes MONTHS...

Not a Good Family law lawyer
After having Chris as my lawyer regarding a CPS case in which he let them run over him and I ended up having to perform EVERY function they asked for though he said he would get half of it dropped. I do not recommend this "lawyer" for any family suit.
Christopher Scott Mcham's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked with and against Mr. McHam on numerous matters and he is an excellent attorney."
"I endorse Christopher. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community."
"I endorse this lawyer. Excellent family law attorney."
"I have worked with Chris on several very serious cases, including one where he served as co-counsel at trial. Based on knowing him for several years, I can recommend Chris without reservation. He is a knowledgable and capable attorney who provides excellent service to his clients."
"Chris McHam is one of the most trustworthy attorneys that I have ever known. His intellectual flexibility, rock-solid attention to detail, and commitment to professionalism make him an exceptional performer. He has pursued a practice that allows him to see the broader outlines of the law, predict outcomes with a great deal of intuitive accuracy, and anticipate problems that go beyond the scope of the matter immediately at hand. Even on matters where I hire specialists, I still consult with Chris on an infromal basis because of his unique and visionary ability to anticipate the interaction between various parts of the law. As a result of a recommendation from me, he handled some estate planning for a close friend of mine. Chris was able to look at the client's investments, understand the client's business model, and craft a solution that allowed the two to work in concert. That sort of multi-modal intellectual flexibility is incredibly valuable to achieving client goals."
