The best decision I have ever made by hiring Chris

I asked CBS Law for help with a felony case. I was scared and didn't know who to turn to, but after seeing good reviews of CBS Law on Google I booked a free consultation. I spoke with Chris at CBS Law, he listened to my situation and confidently said he could help. Above all, he was kind, even taking... my parents’ hands and telling them not to worry. I decided to work with Chris, and it was the best decision I could have made. During the scary months that followed, Chris kept me updated constantly and always knew exactly what needed to be done. I just followed his instructions. After a few months my felony case was dismissed, and I’m so grateful to Chris and the other staff. If you’re looking for a lawyer now, definitely reach out to this firm. They will help you and get the best possible outcome.

Best Decision I Made During the Worst Time of My Life

I came to CBS Law during one of the most stressful periods of my life. From the first consultation, they were straightforward, responsive, and clearly knew the LA County criminal court system inside and out. My attorney fought hard on my behalf and secured the best possible outcome — charges were rej...ected by the DA before ever going to trial. What stood out most was how they kept me informed at every step and never made me feel judged. Worth every penny. If you’re facing serious allegations, don’t hesitate — call them.

Received the Best Outcome for This Case!

I can't say enough good things about Chris Bou Saeed and the CBS team. He was compassionate and straightforward from day one. He broke down all the legal terminology and procedures into language my family member and I could easily grasp, which made a stressful situation much more manageable. What ...stood out most was how Chris made me feel throughout this process: respected, understood, and free from judgment. He remained upbeat and professional at every turn, and I truly believed he had my family member's best interests at heart. The way he extended that same courtesy and respect to both of us during such a challenging time speaks volumes about his character. The entire team was incredibly polite and responsive, always getting back to me quickly, which really helped alleviate out anxiety during such an uncertain time. Thanks to Chris's skill and dedication, their felony charges were diverted to military diversion. Once they complete two years of probation, the charges will be completely dismissed. It was the best outcome for this case and it would not have been possible without Chris. If you're looking for an attorney who combines legal expertise with genuine compassion, I wholeheartedly recommend Chris.

I highly recommend Chris and CBS Law!

In May of this year (2025) I put myself in a predicament where I was facing two felony charges and not only a 4 year prison sentence, but also a strike charge. I called several other law firms before calling Chris at CBS Law. Chris took the time during our initial conversation to not only listen to t...he circumstances, but to explain his background and the background of his law firm. We then scheduled a sit down meeting and he continued to explain everything to where I was able to understand and get a better idea of the situation. I immediately knew I had found the right person to represent me. At the beginning, I was extremely nervous and scared. Chris and I would constantly talk (text or phone calls) and as months went by, I went from being extremely nervous and scared to completely calm. At the conclusion, not only was Chris able to get my charges reduced to misdemeanors with probation, but I was no longer facing jail time. If you are looking for proper representation, Chris and CBS Law is the best option! Not only will Chris explain everything properly, but he will take the time out of his day to help you out, give you recommendations and seek the best option(s) for you! I highly recommend Chris and CBS Law.

My DV case

Consulted with a few attorneys to handle my DV case. Christopher was the 3rd attorney I talked with and I knew right away he is the one to represent me. He was very professional and carried himself with confidence. Very knowledgeable and experienced with handling DV cases. Also was sensitive to wh...at I was going through and I felt he cared. Walked me through the process and what to expect. I did everything he asked for and in the end the court dropped my case. The court system can be very tricky and hard to navigate. Having good counsel on your side is important to make it out alive. Very happy he represented me. Highly recommended.
