A GREAT attorney that represents YOU!

Christian Conrad makes it happen. He has solid ethics and knows his craft inside and out, from all sides. He has been my attorney for many years and he was able to save me an enormaous amount of money, parental rights, and many personal assets that was being agressively sought from me by Opposing ...Council. Not ONCE did I come out on the losing end. We achieved all of our goals throughout massiveamounts of lega proceedings, both in the Judge's Chambers and in courtroom trials, as well as reams of required legal documents and his constant engagement with the case. EXCELLENT ATTORNEY that you will won't go wrong with!!

Posted by anonymous | April 27, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Bad representation. 50,000 in fees!

I made the mistake of hiring Mr. Conrad to handle my divorce, and it turned out to be a complete nightmare. After four long years, I am still legally married and have never even seen a judge. To make matters worse, his office has charged me over $50,000 in fees. Every time I had to appear in court..., Mr. Conrad would make me wait for hours while he chatted with other clients, only to then inform me that the court session had been rescheduled. This happened multiple times, and each time it cost me thousands of dollars in legal fees. This is just one example. Most of the time I felt he was rooting, helping and allowing the other party (ex) to get away with everything. He didn’t fight for me. My case was straightforward, and it should have been resolved quickly, but Mr. Conrad's incompetence dragged it out for years. I regret ever hiring him and would not recommend his services to anyone. If you choose to do business with this law firm, be prepared to be taken advantage of financially and emotionally. In conclusion, my experience with Mr. Conrad was a complete disaster, and I am currently seeking the services of a new attorney to start my case over again. Do not make the same mistake I did and avoid this law firm at all costs.

"J. Christian Conrad was my opposing counsel in a case that involved a significant number of contested, and novel, legal and factual issues. Mr. Conrad was an able adversary, and he demonstrated a high degree of professional competency. Although our clients had diametrically opposed positions, Mr. Conrad always treated me and my client with professional courtesy. I highly recommend Mr. Conrad as a caring and competent counsel."
