Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.We use lawyers from over 50 law firms—some of the best litigators across the country. The MG+M law firm stands out. Chris stands out. He is exceptional. He’s not a litigator—he’s a trial lawyer. Chris’s skillset is therefore different than 99% of the lawyers we see, because he can actually take a case to trial (and win). He’s an exceptionally gifted and talented advocate who combines high performance with high integrity and wise advice. We have and will continue to entrust Chris with our biggest and most important matters.
Chris is extremely knowledgeable and thoroughly prepared. As a client I felt he explained things well and clearly and was very helpful making sure I understood what was expected of me and others. He related well to the jury who liked him and paid attention to him. He was highly effective at asking questions during cross examination and eliciting answers which resonated with the jury in a very favorable and memorable way for our case. He and his team were a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him.
Chris is an extremely effective litigator and has a well-deserved reputation as one of the top asbestos defense trial attorneys in the country. I would recommend him to try a case for anyone in the asbestos field.
One of the best young trial lawyers around.
Chris is a top-notch litigator that puts client service before all else. He anticipates the client's needs and consistently exceeds expectations in his results.
Chris is an absolutely stellar litigator. He is practical, focused and very cost effective. I recommend him without hesitation.
Chris provided excellent service and achieved a favorable resolution to the case we hired him on. In addition, his fees were less than other firms we considered and I never felt I needed to cut his time as I often have to in large firms. I would absolutely hire him again and I can't recommend him highly enough.
