This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent Lawyer

Chris is hands down the best lawyer I have hired, He is knowledgeable, and very Professional. He worked with me for over 10 months on my case, and he kept me in the loop every step of the way. If it wasn't for him, I probably wouldn't of won my case. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of an exc...eptional lawyer.

During my case Chris was helpful with another case that wasn't his responsibility and showed initiative to get both resolved with the best results. Chris kept me informed of things going on, And had multiple plans to get my cases dismissed. I would recommend Chris to anyone who's dealing with proble...ms in the services he offers, he's a good honest family man, hopefully I won't need his help again but if I did there's no question I would call him again!

Best Ticket Attorney In Seattle

Chris Griffen has been my attorney for over 2 years now and every speeding ticket I've ever had (9 Total) he has gotten them dismissed or lowered to a non-moving violation saving my driving record and insurance premiums. I really appreciate all the hard work he has done for me and recommend him to an...ybody. As a teenage driver everyone makes mistakes, but with one call Chris can help save your driving record.

Highly skilled, responsive, compassionate, and a pleasure to work with.

My experience with Chris L. Griffen has been very satisfactory. As an attorney, he was very experienced, very knowledgeable, great listener, very hopeful, very quick to take action, responsible and reliable without any doubt and does indeed deliver. Will evaluate your options extremely very carefull...y and most wisely will guide you in the right direction. He is very dedicated to his clients, and will without doubt will go the extra mile for you to help you get your life back on track the best way possible. He was very, very patient, will answer all your questions and concerns very wisely and professionally. Has a way to explain and simplify the legal law terms when they get confusing and really complicated to understand. His advise is truly studied and reviewed by him to be the best outcome to your case to help you fast get back on track. Mr. Griffen was very kind, understanding, responsible, reliable, quick to take action, a great listener, hard worker, very patient, and experienced. Mr. Griffen saved me from deportation by the federal government, gave my life back and most importantly kept me out of jail and reunited me back with my wife and child. I’m forever grateful for everything you’ve done for our family and are really blessed we have met you Mr. Griffen. Thank you again.
