Very good attorney...

Chris is a smart, tenacious, and caring lawyer. He cares deeply about his clients and works with them in every way possible to resolve their cases. He showed me that he wasn't just in it for the money...he actually sets his clients up on payment plans if they need them. He also goes to his clients' h...omes to meet with them if they can't make it to his office. What lawyer does that??? Chris strikes a good balance between being aggressive and a smart negotiator. Most of all, Chris is from the streets. He lived a tough life and grew up in a tough part of town, so he can empathize with his criminal clients more so than most of the lawyers out there came from privileged backgrounds. Chris is also a man of faith, which informs the way in which he handles his cases. He communicates on his clients' level and never makes you feel dumb or less than him like many other lawyers I've dealt with. Chis gets back right away and doesn't hide behind a secretary or assistant like many other attorneys do. If you call him you'll see what I'm talking about. Anyone who goes with Chris won't be disappointed. I'm very blessed to have met him and can't say enough about what a get person and attorney he is. He did an excellent job assisting my grandmother on an elder abuse case and got her neighbors to stop harassing her. Awesome lawyer...
