Awesome work

Chris did an amazing job for me! It was my first time ever running through the legal system and he was very helpful and descriptive through every part of the process! I came to him very stressed and concerned and was sourced to actually talk to someone who knew what to do and knew what the right step...s forwards were! Chris helped get my case dropped from a DUI to a Reckless driving, which is much prettier than the previous result and always made sure to be on time and ready at an amazing rate! Thank you very much Chris for your work!

Grateful

After getting my DUI and navigating the uncharted waters of endless attorneys I found Christopher. After speaking with him the first time I knew I was going to hire him and told him shortly after that same day. He's genuine, down to earth and charged a very fair price. What can I say?...he went to ba...t for me. He continuously pushed for the results we were focused on with the City of Seattle prosecutor. We got the results we wanted and I can't be more thankful. Christopher kept me in the loop on what to expect and what had or hadn't transpired. He was transparent throughout the process and let me know what I could do to be ahead of the game and proactive. It was my first DUI w/ a refusal greater than +.15 BAC. I had 2 prior alcohol related offenses on my record and we were able to get it reduced down to a DUI no test. Originally the prosecutor wanted 2yrs ignition interlock, 2 days in jail plus 30 days electronic home monitoring and 5 years bench probation. However, Chris was able to get it down to 1 year ignition interlock, 30 days electronic home monitoring and no probation. He was honest enough to tell me as well that I had a refund coming my way per our contractual agreement. Something that I didn't even know. Hire him should you have the opportunity.

Excellent

Back in February I thought my life was over when I got pulled over after a few glasses of wine and arrested, I immediately googled what to do and filled out a form online and Christopher contacted me the following morining and talked me through my options and what crucial steps were next. I met with ...him a few days later and hired him and he has been awesome the entire time, I have felt much better about the situation and he's answered all questions I asked. Overall I would suggest him to anyone who may need an attorney for such a case.

#1 Lawyer in my book

Chris exceeded my expectations. He personally answered all my calls, unheard of when dealing with lawyers in the past. He is a Lawyer so would recommend to anyone. I Started out with a Dui that was a sure thing for the prosecution, but Chris did his thing and I received a reckless driving and 100 fin...e.Chris was even willing to work out a payment plan..Hands down a comforting person to have on your side when dealing with the extreme stress that comes with a Dui arrest.I will be retaining Chris,Just in case I ever need a Lawyer in the future.
