Highly Recommend Christian A. Schwaner!

Christian Schwaner handled a matter for me. I felt he was both caring and understanding as he listened to the situation— as I just turned eighteen-years-old. I appreciate his hard work, and am very happy— as he achieved the best outcome! I feel I can move forward with my life and be a productive pers...on because of the outcome Christian was able to achieve for me. I am extremely grateful for Christian’s dedication to his clients and the legal profession. I highly recommend Christian to anyone looking for an excellent criminal defense attorney. Thank you, Christian!

Huge help

He was more than helpful and knows the system real well . Even before he had any of my money he still took time to explain everything and direct me in the right direction. I’ve definitely learned a lot of this experience and hope to never be in any trouble ever again. But if you need help with a lawy...er and don’t wanna waste your money , go with someone who has worked with the courts here for a long time . I don’t ever even write a review but maybe this can help someone make a right decision after a bad one .

Great Experience!

My experience with the Christian A. Schwaner firm was excellent. Christian and his team were amazing. Always very kind and helpful. Although I felt embarrassed and regretful about my situation they never once made me feel judged. They were very understanding and supportive. Christian went way abo...ve and beyond to make sure the outcome of my case was satisfactory. The situation was stressful for me but Christian was always reassuring. He helped make an unpleasant experience an almost painless one. He was always willing to answer my questions and helped me with every step of the process. The results I received were better than I ever expected. Christian helped me to get a much reduced sentence than what I had anticipated. I have talked to many people in the same situation along my journey and lots of them were very disappointed and unhappy with their representation. I feel so lucky to have found and hired Christian. I never had a single reason to be dissatisfied. I would recommend him to anyone! He is THE BEST! I will forever be grateful to him and will never be able to repay him for the help and reassurance. Thank you so much!

Mr. Schwaner has come to the rescue of my family 3 times now. Each time he was respectful and calming and dealt with particulars of each situation. I know nothing about the law, so I’m glad I know Christian.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
