Reviews
I was referred to the Law Offices of Hendry and Parker back in November of 2020 after being battered by Pinellas County Sheriff Lt. Forcade who lied on his arrest report. All charges have been dropped by the States Attorney's office after Attorney Kris Parker's diligent work obtaining key testimony from witnesses and video evidence of the incident. I am grateful for the work he put into my case.
I had a wonderful experience with this firm. They were responsive and thorough; their prices are fair; they helped me to dial down the drama and the upset about my case and helped me calmly go through the process... and went on to WIN. I walked into the courtroom scared and nervous, and I walked out crying tears of happiness and gratitude. I would highly recommend Hendry & Parker to anyone who needs a good legal referral.
I had a bad thing happen, but these guys really took care of me. They helped me learn about the law and always felt I was in good hands. Thanks, Don & Kris!!
I worked with Kris on my case that could have turned out very bad for me. He was very diligent to attend every hearing for me and worked with the States Attorney to come to a much better result than I could have done on my own. He was gracious to make sure I was assured every step of the way that he had this ! I did not even have to appear before the Judge at all. I would (and do) highly recommend Kris to everyone that I speak to about legal matters.
When my son needed a criminal defense attorney we were referred to Kris Parker by our family attorney. We hired him to defend my son. Not once did I doubt his ability to help us during a really scary time in our lives. My son was charged with 3 felonies and a misdemeanor facing 15 years and thanks to Kris, all charges have been dismissed. I’m so thankful for Kris Parker and the work he did to help my son. Which in turn has helped my son have a positive plan for his future.
My experience dealing with Kris was favorable. He was realistic, did what he said he was going to, he was available and followed up in timely fashion. Im am very pleased with my legal outcome becoming achieved via Kris.
Kris is experienced, competent, and professional. I was very pleased with his services.
Kris was able to successfully help me out of two serious charges by enrolling me into a PTI program. He was always available by phone and email, answered any questions I had and monitored my progress. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a competent and hard working attorney.
Kris is a strong but kind lawyer. He won my case and he made me feel at ease through the whole process. He was always just a phone call away and never made me wait for a response. Very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I would hire him again! Highly recommended.
I really enjoyed working with Kris, considering the circumstances. He has honest and upfront, easy to communicate with and clear on what to expect. I couldn't be happier with him and his service through the entire process! He got me exactly what I wanted and did so in a stress free manner! He was always easy to get in touch with and answered my questions quickly!
