Should have just saved the $2500 and used a public defender

Christopher showed little interest or initiative in my case, even though I had presented him with evidence such as: not being read my Miranda rights, the arresting officer telling me I had no choice and had to do a voluntary sobriety test, the officer banging on my windows and threatening to charge m...e with everything he could If I didn't comply, all of which would have been recorded and captured by the officers car camera and microphone. I was charged with DUI for a situation that I wasn't even driving in. He was able to get the Marijuana taken off my charges, but I was still charged for DUI for being on medication that I took for migranes unable to get a first offence knocked down to reckless driving. His concern was spending another $2500 on trial. Well in the end it has cost me an extra $8000. I would not reccomend this lawyer, I don't believe he is experienced enough to take on cases that require extraordinary lawyer skills.

Couldn't have asked for better defense

Christopher stood by me in a very stressful time in my life, I had a lot on the line when I got the news that I was being charged. At that time I was turning my life around, and had one year of school left and any jail time would have been detrimental to my education and success. It also would have t...aken me away from my wife and children who depend on me. Christopher got my felony dropped to a misdemeanor and only ended up having about 500 dollars in court fines in the end, and 24 hours of community service which I was able to complete in a timely manner. If you have a family depending on you, and are being charged with something a little more serious than the average case, and have your life riding on the courts decision, I wouldn't recommend anyone other than Christopher Eastwood to have in your corner, he is honest, keeps you informed every step of the way and let's you know of any steps he may have to take in your defense, and he is very knowledgeable and was able to answer any of my questions and was very good to work with throughout my time in court. Not many people where able to make me feel better about my court situation, but Christopher was able to do that, he assured me that everything would be okay, and that we had a very good chance at getting this figured out with very little repercussions, and he was exactly right. I went to other lawyers before him that really didn't seem interested in my well being and if my case turned out in my favor or not, but Christopher was the exact opposite, and I could tell that he wanted to make sure that things worked out for me. I would strongly recommend Christopher Eastwood if you are looking for a lawyer, I still call him to this day for legal advice and information and he is always willing to help me with whatever questions I may have.

Great Ellensburg Attorney

When I was in my senior year at CWU, I was charged with a DUI. My parents found Mr. Eastwood to be my lawyer. Mr. Eastwood was able to get my charges changed to reckless driving and I didn't get any jail time. He was a very good attorney for me. I felt comfortable with him from my first meeting and h...e explained how everything would work. I would definitely recommend him to my friends.
