Best DUI Defense Lawyer in OC

Chris was extremely proffessional. Always available to talk if you have any questions about your case. Goes above and beyond to get the best result. I was really impressed by his commitment and dedication to make me happy as his client.

Winner winner chicken dinner.

Mr McCann did an excellent job defending me from the unjust arm of the law. Got my criminal charges dismissed before I was even arraigned. He even helped me get my license back after the state wrongly took it. He stayed in constant contact with me. Went above and beyond what he said he could possibly... do. Glad I went with Chris!

Chris has made a huge difference for me

I hired Chris to look into my case after finding him on Avvo based on the other reviews. Chris was the first out of several lawyers I e-mailed to get back to me via a personal phone call, ON A SUNDAY. He was very patient and understanding, listened to my situation carefully and gave me the piece ...of mind I needed. During the entire process of the case Chris constantly kept me updated with his progress, got back to my questions in a timely manner, and went to court several times trying to get the best possible deal for me. Chris also went above & beyond his obligation, consulted other lawyers regarding the outcome of the case on my immigration status, and provided me with all around advise on the potential impact of the case. In the end after all the hardwork, Chris was able to obtain a favorable outcome for me in my case. He has truly been a difference maker for me in the entire process. I would recommend Chris to anyone who's in a similar situation and want someone dedicated, proficient and responsible to represent them.

Cool As the Other Side of the Pillow

As the saying goes--so goes Mr. McCann. I was up against the legal system (once again) and this time it looked dire. It was my 2nd charge of driving under the influence and it wasn't looking good. I know people who will peruse this review and shake their heads at the plausibility of someone not only ...getting one driving under the influence but a second one will be less than agreeable but it happened. The one thing that helped me in facing an additional charge is this: AVVO and it recommendation of Christopher J. McCann. From the frantic search for legal representation to the day he called and gave me supremely good news, Mr. McCann was professional, courteous, understanding and a stalwart advocate. He was approachable and spoke to me in a manner that was not domineering or wishy-washy. He was straight to the point and even spoke on how 'special' my case was. I, on the other hand, was a nervous wreck. I felt that there were some things about the charge that wasn't sitting well but I, overall, felt that I will get the book thrown at me. The moment that I chose Mr. McCann as my lawyer started the process of smoothing it all out. One of the most important things I believe that made him an excellent choice was his approachability. He answered all my calls and emails with a level of professionalism that seems to be lacking in today's world. I mean, he even took my initial inquiry on a Sunday morning and talked to me for a little over an hour. He was, in all honesty, the only lawyer that spoke to me that Sunday and spoke at length. He asked for the details and offered his legal opinion. I knew after the phone consultation that I would hire him. The first actual contact--the meeting at his satellite office only sealed the deal but conveyed to me that I made the right choice. Christopher J. McCann went to work immediately and through his relentless effort received and ensured that I would have a valiant advocate. There were questionable tactics used by the arresting officer and from the get-go it was his point of attack that seemed to reflect this. It was as if Mr. McCann had been practicing law for 50 years and not the 12 years it says in his profile. I wavered in my own personal belief that Chris and I would receive a favorable outcome, so any positive outcome would be welcomed over the complete penalties I was facing. Through it all, he was comforting and explained what he felt the DMV and the court would probably do and I do believe that helped to alleviate all of my concerns and to allow him to do his best work. He did more than I thought he was going to be able to do and the results were better than I had anticipated. We did not obtain a complete victory but the outcome was much better than I had ever hoped them to be. Thank you, Christopher J. McCann!

Three Time DUI Offender

Chris just helped me get early termination on my 5 year probation and helped me file the paper work to get my cases expunged.
