Christopher Robert Abernathy

After hiring a friends recommended attorney, it was very disheartening that an imminent concern for my child and his well being were scheduled for five months later! After realizing that I had hired incompetent representation, (note that attorney had no team, and made changes due "no time to meet"), ...I went with another attorney after meeting with the para legal. However, once again, an embarrassment of representation. After losing all faith in anyone caring in this field, I represented myself. At the next hearing, I witnessed an attorney represent his client quoting laws, referring to prior case outcomes, and fighting for the rights of his client. I did not know his name and my palms were sweaty and I was a mess because I had to represent myself right after that performance!! The next court session that I went too, it was like watching a sequel that actually gets better. Mr. Abernathy was incredible and knowledgeable of all aspects of his field. Chris Abernathy told me something I think every individual entering a difficult divorce and custody resolve should hear, "you need competent representation, what you are asking for could have been done easily and by you for free. Those are your rights." Needless to say, Chris has the most incredible team. They communicate and treat you the way someone needs to be treated under such hard times in life. Thank you to Chris, Alicia, Tina, Vanessa and Kristen or being an elite team that has been an honor to work with during the hardest time of my life. The knowledge and drive of this team has helped me get me the right outcomes and my child protected in a short time span. My advice to any parent reading reviews and worried about protecting their children while fighting for their own rights, just pick Team Abernathy. And do it now.

After I filed for divorce, my ex-wife hired representation from a large, prestigious law firm. Although her income was notably less than mine, she had substantial financial resources available from outside parties, giving me much to be concerned about. Mr. Abernathy turned out to be an formidable ...advocate on my behalf. He jealously defended my interests and his strategies proved effective in protecting me from unreasonable and unfair demands. As my sole counsel, he proved more than competent in dealing with my ex-wife's attorneys. Mr. Abernathy's performance during depositions, negotiations and in the courtroom were very impressive, and his ability to communicate with the judge instilled confidence. Mr. Abernathy's communication style is quick, direct and without filters, exactly what a client needs from his or her lawyer. I have already recommended Mr. Abernathy to others without reservation.

Superior lawyer. Christopher's attention to each and every detail of my case was increadable. Christopher fought for me so that I could receive to best possible outcome. With Christopher's legal and level headed advice I now have worked through a very difficult time. I give Christopher my hig...hest recommendation. Sincerely Michael

When my ex-wife said she wanted a divorce I panicked! I had two beautiful children, and successful business, and a large portfolio of real estate. I needed to get the best attorney I could find. Abernathy was referred to me by two other clients that had used him. He recommended I also hire a fore...nsic accountant to protect my assets. My ex hired high powered attorney/accountant from Los Angeles. Abernathy cleaned their clock in our first court appearance. My ex was a stay at home mom that did not work. Abernathy got me 50% custody of my kids and helped me retain my business, while splitting all assets. Considering this was a long-term marriage, I was very pleased. He is short and to the point. Some might find his personality offensive, but reality is that he knows what he is doing. I would definitely recommend him, especially if you have children that you want custody of.
