No Value, No Grit

I would definitely not recommend this law firm. Please keep in mind I use the term "law firm" loosely and with prejudice. The biggest point to consider. The cost for preparing a handful of documents and approximately thirty minutes of court time was $10,000. My associate lawyer happened to be someone... I knew from getting my business degree; however, that had no bearing on the service. They were unprepared, their staff did not communicate well with each other, and the level of courtroom effort was borderline cowardly. I realized I could have easily done what their entire office had without wasting $10,000. Be informed and ensure you know what you are being billed for, and keep a record. I was billed because the associate lawyer had to wait for my case to be heard at $400/hr. Although no services were provided, I was still billed for six hours. We were in the courtroom for approximately thirty minutes. They could have worked on a different case while sitting and doing nothing. But that would have been too efficient. That's what the attorneys do at this 'firm'. The rate should have been $4.00/hr. That is the level of professionalism and service I observed and received. Good luck to you. I suggest you seek legal assistance elsewhere. One star is required. That was forced. My rating is no stars.

Skilled Attorney

My experience with this firm was great. I know attorneys get a bad reputation but in all honesty Mr Shank was a great attorney and fought really hard for me. He helped me navigate through the complexities of divorce (which was all new for me). Thank you to Mr. Shank and his whole team!!

NOT FOR THE PEOPLE!

This entire office if Attorneys and what ever else they call themselves in office is not professional!!! All they care and see are $$$ instead of the true need of the clients. Their commitments are very deceitful, never following up, poor communication. It's very sad that our money was put to wast...e when we needed strong help we got nothing but overcharged! These facts are true and should never be held against us as people who work hard for our money and people like this abuse our services. I DON'T RECOMMEND THIS OFFICE AT ALL!!!!!!! ASK QUESTIONS! DO YOUR HOMEWORK! DON'T LET FAKE PROMISES CATCH YOU LIKE IT DID NE!

Great experience

My experience with Christian Schank was great. I needed last minute representation for a domestic violence restraining order trial and so I called into his office. After doing a consultation, I hired him and he successfully defended the restraining order and was legit in court. He is a very skilled ...attorney. He was very aggressive in court and I could tell that is where he excels. All in all, I was stoked to have Mr. Schank as my attorney.
