John was excellent from the time we hired him in what had been a lengthy court case. He was the utmost professional, and researched every aspect to help us with the best possible outcome. He fought for us and won our case. I would recommend him to my friends and family.

John won our case with brilliant strategy and determination. He saved us over $40,000! We would recommend him to anyone in serious need of a great attorney. He was not the cheapest but he was the best and worth every penny we paid him!

I had a huge problem which started in 2016. I hired three attorneys and literally all they wanted was money. They couldn't care less about my case. My last hope before closing the case was John. I went to his office and I was comforted by his way. It was crystal clear that he is a very caring person who will never leave you in the middle of the way. He worked really hard to find evidence and because of him my case finally got sealed and destroyed. No words can express how grateful I am for knowi

John is the best! He was there for us every step of the way. I highly recommend him. He really cares about you and your case and makes things so easy to understand. He has a great demeanor and a positive attitude, even in tense situations.

Couldn’t have been more comfortable and more happy with having John on my team. The most calm and confident attorney I’ve ever used. Having the former Orange County Deputy District Attorney on your side?!! Let me tell you I slept better and walked taller. John was available to me when needed outside the court room and educated me on the events that would unfold and couldn’t have been happier with the results. This man is the best in the business. He has put my family back together.

Mr. Christl is amazing. From the beginning, he was extremely upfront and honest with what his expectations were and what he was going to do to achieve them. No matter how many times I called/emailed him, asking the same questions and just generally seeking assurance, he was there. I can only imagine how busy he must be, but his patience and compassion are without compare. Words fail to adequately describe my gratitude to the man who preserved my sanity during the most trying time in my life.

DO NOT HIRE HIM!! John accepted $15,000 from my parents retirement savings happily to represent me promising me the world and did absolutely nothing to help my case. He shows up unprepared in court without copies for the judge, acts disrespectful towards him shrugging when asked why he didn’t sent in advance, says inappropriate comments that are offensive and insulting regarding my case of why it occurred, won’t negotiate on my behalf with charges and tries to convince you that your guilty of things that are not right. He sends in letters that are detrimental to your character to hurt your case further. John tried to sabotage the entire case requesting to end a diversion program due to my father that has mental health issues feeling guilty for harming my case with lies to protect himself. Unprofessional and incompetent behavior to represent a client without their best interests. Please find an attorney that is intelligent and trustworthy to handle your case and make ethical decisions.
