Professional & Diligent

My partner and I decided to get a prenup before getting married after talking to others about it. I’m so glad I used Chris to draft our prenup. There were areas where my partner and I didn’t agree and Chris was able to work with my Partner’s attorney while still making sure my needs were met and inte...rests covered. Communication was great, Chris was fast and the agreement was thorough. Top notch! I will gladly come back if I ever need anything else.

Highly Recommend!

I cannot recommend Downs Law, particularly Chris, highly enough for their exceptional support in helping us create our will and trust. This was something we had been putting off (the thought of it was incredibly overwhelming and somewhat emotionally challenging), but Chris made the entire process sea...mless. They demonstrated grace, patience and understanding throughout the entire process. Their insights were invaluable--always prioritizing our best interests and ensuring that every aspect was clear and organized. Chris has a unique ability to make what could be a daunting and impersonal matter feel incredibly approachable and effortless. We wholeheartedly recommend Downs Law for anyone seeking legal assistance and we plan to continue working with Chris on any future family related needs.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
