After I suffered a significant change in my income I went and met with Attorney Schmidgall regarding filing for bankruptcy. I was nervous at the thought of having to file for bankruptcy but after speaking with him I felt relief. He explained that I would be able to get a fresh start. I felt that he had my best intentions at heart. He returns my call promptly to answer all questions and concerns I have and his staff is knowledgeable and helpful as well. I have and do refer all my friends to him for their legal matters and they have been pleased with his services as well.
Chris, in all my dealings with him has been responsive to any questions I have ask, even when referring me to someone else when I need help with a problem outside his state . His Follow up is excellent in showing interest even in projects he has advised me to send to another attorney . When his office is acting on my behalf the results have always been speedy and satisfactory. I would highly recommend him as his advise has been invaluable to me.
Chris Schmidgall handled my expungement and sealing cases in Indiana relating to charges that were either dropped or dismissed by the Court. While several other attorneys would not even call me back, Chris immediately stepped in and took initiative to help me and my family out. Specifically, he thoroughly investigated all the legal elements of my case and frequently consulted with his legal assistants on the matter to prepare the best motions and petitions possible. To say it simply, his legal motions are excellent and he strongly argues the law. In addition, he sends copies of everything to the client for his/her review and incorporates that feedback into his legal framework. Aside from the legal arena, he has a very friendly demeanor and is always asking what he can do to help. Without any reservations, I would strongly recommend Chris Schmidgall to anyone needing criminal defense assistance or other legal help for which he is qualified. You will not regret it.
