"I had the opportunity to work alongside Chris on a federal tax fraud trial in which we represented two of ten co-defendants charged with a total of 105 counts. Chris displayed a command of the facts, thorough understanding of the complex legal issues presented, and a tireless work ethic. He's a fantastic attorney, and I heartily endorse him."
"Chris is among the handful of smartest and most dedicated attorneys I know. His reputation for thoroughness and excellence in court is well deserved. I refer him all of the Puget Sound area criminal defense cases that come across my desk and I will continue to do so."
"Chris has been such a great colleague over the years because he has extensive experience and he's so generous about sharing his knowledge. I highly endorse him."
"Mr. Black consistently provides insightful and helpful advice. His knowledge and diligence are clearly evident. I endorse him without reservation"
"I endorse Chris Black. He is patient, diligent, and creative, and has an excellent understanding of the intersection between criminal and immigration laws."
