Excellent attorney !

Christopher is an excellent attorney. He is very professional and compassionate. Christopher represented my brother who is disabled and suffers from severe mental health issues and substance abuse problems. My brother was facing an arson charge (which was a felony "strike" carrying lifetime arsonist ...registration.) This was due to an incident that happened when my brother was experiencing a mental health crisis. Christopher engaged with family members to obtain information about my brother’s mental health history, requested medical records, and requested for my brother to receive a mental health assessment in order to gather the information needed to better represent my brother. Thanks to Christopher’s work, the judge took into consideration my brother’s mental health problems. Christopher was able to get the felony “Strike” dismissed. Instead, my brother agreed to a non-strike felony on the condition that he completes the ODR program. Upon the completion of the program, the felony charge can be reduced to a misdemeanor. Christopher advocated for my brother to be referred to a program in which he will have the opportunity to rehabilitate, receive mental health and housing services. My brother was fortunate to have Christopher as his attorney and our family is very thankful to him. Christopher is an excellent attorney because he genuinely cares about helping those in need.

Great Attorney!

My criminal case started with a bail set at 1.2 million dollars and as a third strike case. One year later when it was all said and done my bail had been reduced to a 110,000 and my criminal court case had been reduced to a misdemeanor battery. My attorney was very diligent in explaining the nature ...of my charges and the nature of my deffense. I would recommend him to any one in a criminal legal bind because he is intelligent and very professional. My son and I owe him alot. Thnx Bou Saeed

Extremely satisfied

Christopher Jude Bou Saeed is dedicated and very professional attorney. My son was charged with a felony and a strike. My son Nick had just turned 18 and made a few foolish choices. Choices that were not felony worthy. Chris took the time to know my son's background and every detail of his case. He ...was always great at replying to my questions and concerns. He did everything legally possible to obtain a lesser charge and give my son the best deal possible. I would recommend attorney Chris to anyone who wants a dedicated and passionate Attorney on their side.

The Finest Representation Available!

I recently had the privilege of retaining Christopher as my lawyer. I say privilege because that's exactly how my experience working with Chis made me feel. He represented me in and DUI case from 2012 against the county of a Riverside Ca. Through His knowledge, tenacious work ethic and a clear and co...nsistent open line of communication he exceeded my expectations of professional attorney representation. As his client I was always well informed of my cases status, my possible options and a realistic outlook on conceivable outcomes of my case. Most importantly he provided me with the controlling power of decision making while always expertly advising me of my best option. With the states evidence being extremely strong Chris was still able to get all charges dismissed on basis of a "Serna motion". If you are looking for an attorney who is professional and extremely dedicated to protecting the constitutional rights of his clients then Chris is hands down the best choice. I can honestly say that if ever I need legal counsel again there is no hesitation on who's name would stand out. If I had to sum up my entire experience into one word, WOW! Would be the most applicable.
