Chris, is a pleasure to work with. He is always available when I need him, day or night. He does quality work in a timely manner. He is very knowledgeable and trust worthy. I would recommend him to anyone who owns or runs a business, he can handle any type of attorney related business task you need him to.

I am grateful to have had Mr. Pardo as a lawyer. He's experienced and very knowledgeable, and his track record show it. He has an unparalleled work ethic and he keeps his clients best interests in mind. Christopher's confidence is contagious, and I felt relaxed and reassured the entire time we worked together. I would highly recommend Mr. Pardo to anyone.

As a small business owner I retained Chris to handle a number of challenging issues. He is extremely responsive and effective. He was able to get the results that were needed quickly, all while keeping me informed of what was happening and providing me with excellent advise going forward. I had worked with other attorneys in the past that were more interested in just billing time than truly putting their client's needs and desired outcomes first; this is not the case with Chris. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Chris to anyone.

As the executive director of a non-profit start-up, with little HR experience, I needed all the help I could get. Thankfully, Christopher, with his practical and organized approach, helped me navigate the murky waters of human resource management and work force development. He worked with me on everything from establishing sound hiring practices to creating an employee handbook and training materials. He was always available by phone and by email to answer questions, and his advice was tailored to my unique circumstances. I always felt like I was his only client, even though I'm sure, while we were working together, I was one of his smallest. I would enthusiastically engage his services again in both a corporate or a non-profit setting.

Chris is an incredibly efficient and knowledgeable attorney who has always gone out of his way to be sure we are protected and that we have what we need when we need it. Honestly, I do not know where we would be without Chris' services. He has gone out of his way to learn and understand our business which had added even more to the quality of the service we have received and will continue to receive in the future. Also besides being a great attorney Chris is a genuinely nice guy, which is rare. If there were a choice above excellent for any of the sections above I would have chosen it.
