Christopher Casebeer

Mr. Casebeer helped me through my divorce, which went on longer than anticipated. He was thorough, kind, patient, and very knowledgeable. He walked me through the process, and his expertise and experience facilitated an equitable settlement. I highly recommend Mr. Casebeer.

Great Job!!!

Just finished with a very stressful divorce. But thanks to Chris and his very helpful assistants we got it done. It took almost 2 years but they worked very hard to navigate all the roadblocks that came our way. Chris has the expert advice one needs to get through it all. He is very knowledgeable wit...h what needed to get done and how to do it so we had no problem when it went to arbitration. Thanks Chris and all the people who worked on this case!!!

Exceptional Attorney, incredible support staff

I was fortunate to have Mr. Casebeer as my attorney during my divorce in 2018. The attorney has many roles in a divorce - advocate, counselor, and of course legal expert. Mr. Casebeer's legal acumen and approach to my case resulted in an outcome that was exceptional and also very expeditious, saving ...me time, money and stress. At every point he and his office were on top of all of the complex moving parts of my situation, and were available for me when I needed questions answered or simply needed reassurance in order to remain sane. He was so good at working with the opposing counsel and mediating judge in my case. I cannot imagine such a difficult time in my life being handled better, and the outcome and resolution speaks for itself. I feel indebted to him and his staff.

Great Work

Chris - did an excellent job of helping me through this process. His knowledge of the law and his ability to negotiate with the other attorney was very helpful.

Outstanding!

I recently finished a complicated 14 month long divorce with custody issues, businesses to divide, etc. At the beginning, I spent a couple weeks researching attorneys, asking friends and acquaintances for recommendations – due diligence, if you will. The name Christopher Casebeer kept coming up in ...my conversations. It seemed a no-brainer at the time and wow did it ever prove to be one of the best decisions I ever made. Mr. Casebeer was there every step of the way. Very, very knowledgeable, experienced, organized, prepared, and professional – all that you could ever ask for in such a delicate matter. He’s an extremely intelligent attorney and believe me when I tell you this – “smart is a really good thing to have on your side in a divorce.”
