You can’t get better than this

In need of an attorney for my divorce ,scared and not knowing where to turn , I took a chance and called Chris , From the minute I heard his voice ,I felt at peace and knew he had my back . The whole team made me feel protected and safe from that first call right to the end . They work together like... a fine tuned machine , and I can’t thank all of them enough for making my ordeal so seamless . Just love you guys —Linda

The Ault Firm: Excellent Representation

I contacted the Ault Firm at the beginning of my divorce. I had already filed papers on my own and they reviewed them for me during our free consultation. They suggested I simply continue on that track, because I was doing well enough...But to call them if I needed them. When I got cornered by th...e opposing party's legal counsel, Chris stepped in and handled my divorce case most professionally and with great courtesy. We had a brief court appearance, and the outcome, though divorce is never the desirable outcome, was the best that it could be. I highly recommend Ault Legal.

Competent, Helpful, and Professional

Christopher was a very helpful attorney for my DUI case. He worked hard to have my charges reduced to Impaired Driving, allowing me to keep my license. The staff at Ault Legal were very friendly and helpful. I would certainly recommend Christopher to those in need of professional legal help.

Very honest Attorney

I had a great experience working with Chris Ault. He is a great Attorney. I was going through with a protective order. Which was not fun nor easy, he helped me feel at ease when I would call him up. Also answered every question I had before entering the court room. I would recommend him for any... case.

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.
