I was in a pinch. I mean I was in a lot of trouble. I went to talk to the DA without a lawyer and it was horrible. I hired Chris and he worked miracles, but what makes him so good is, that I thought I had a great deal and was happy as could be. It wasn’t good enough for him though. He definitely fights for his clients, and gets the best possible outcome.

Chris and his staff were extremely helpful in my case from the beginning. Helping me to understand what my options were and what each option meant along the way. The results of my case were very favorable for me. I would recommend Chris Collins to anyone looking for services that he provides.

Chris assisted me with a legal matter and I was very happy with every aspect of the experience. He took the time to make sure I understood the process, explained the law, and fully explored all of my options so I could make an informed decision. He negotiated a favorable outcome and I was very pleased with the results. He genuinely seemed to care about my case and I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal assistance.
