Christopher Robert Black

Chris Black was my federal criminal defense lawyer for a complex case. Of course, lawyers cannot work miracles, but the combination of his work ethic, knowledge, compassion, response time, assistance, realistic conversations about the circumstances and possible options/outcomes, and end results might... as well have been a miracle. Every case is different and results may vary, but he will be your best bet throughout the entire process, and even if the end results are not exactly what you hoped for, with Chris at your side they will be the best you can get in your specific situation. He truly is the full package, even if the case goes the trial, he is ready for anything. He is highly respected in the field as well, even amongst judges and prosecutors, which goes a long way. I highly recommend Chris Black as a lawyer.

I am greatly appreciative of Chris. I have had my fair share of lawyers and he is by far the most responsive, helpful and diligent lawyer I’ve come across. Even during a very delayed federal case due to the pandemic, he kept me up to speed on everything involving my case and took my input into consid...eration throughout the whole process. He made a very difficult time a bit smoother and less stressful for my family and I. Even after sentencing he still responds and answers any questions I have. I highly recommend him!

Chris Black has represented me in a deferred prosecution case for nearly two years. I chose Chris for his impeccable credentials and experience, but I continue to rely on him because he is conscientious, consistent, and effective. By my own doing, I have had several serious and difficult setbacks in ...my case. Chris had my back. Each time, he listened attentively to my needs and goals; gave his honest and clear legal assessment; and worked with me to establish a path forward. He is always assertive and efficient, yet diligent and devoted. Entirely because of Chris, court has given me numerous opportunities to change and grow. Additionally, Chris is adept and sharp, yet extraordinarily humble. He is personable and available, and genuinely cares about his clients. His first question to me is always about the state of my well-being, and how he can best support me. He assures me that he will take on the stress of my legal situation, so that I can just focus on myself. I am confident he will continue to put my best interests first. Chris absolutely strikes a rare balance between professionalism and compassion. For anyone seeking a sensational criminal defense attorney, I definitely recommend Chris.

I recently contacted and hired Chris Black to represent my father in his initial appearance prior to being transferred. Our situation was very sensitive in regards to the nature of the charges (federal charges) and the fact that my father needed representation in a state where none of us live. Chris ...was not only extremely knowledgable about next steps and the type of counsel my father needed, but he was also a quick communicator and quick to act in regards to meeting with my father. But, above that, it felt like he really cared about my father, our family, and the situation we were faced with and did his best to calm our nerves and provide us with relevant information moving forward. If we could hire him to represent my dad in our state, we would.

Recently my family and I experienced nothing any of us had ever come close to dealing with before. My husband and I hurriedly traveled to Seattle from Sandpoint Idaho to help one of our sons who had been arrested on felony assault charges. We were panicked, confused, and totally out of our elemen...t in that we have never needed the services of a lawyer before. Thankfully, while we were traveling across state a relative found Chris online for us and we decided to call. This was the best decision we could have made and it set the course for a positive outcome for our son and family. Not only were we able to get our son released from jail promptly but I believe that Chris's vast experience and expertise was ultimately what led to our son never even being charged. It was a traumatic time for all of us and had we not had Chris on our side I am afraid our son's life would have been changed dramatically and not for the best. Chris is straight forward, frank, very knowledgeable and he treated us with kindness and understanding. Chris is a genuine person who's talent was used to help us in a way that I will never be able to properly thank him for. Contact Chris and Tim, you will immediately be set at ease and I know they will be able to help.
