Chris has successfully defended many clients, including receiving “Not Guilty” verdicts at trial for felony and misdemeanor cases in multiple jurisdictions around the state. He has experience representing clients facing all kinds of criminal charges, including: shoplifting, DUI, domestic violence, drug charges, identity theft, sexual abuse, unlawful use of a weapon, robbery, assault, manslaughter, and many other crimes.
