Client Reviews

Nicole Johnson

After dealing with another local attorney who couldn’t seem to give me consistent answers regarding my bankruptcy, I immediately went on the internet and did some research and came across Mr. McAvoy. After reading the reviews, I decided to give him a call. Glad I did! Mr. McAvoy was straight forward and assisted me during a very stressful time. I was able to relax and let him and his team (esp. Kathryn) handle the issues without any doubts. I recommend him to everyone.

Sarah G.

Working with Chris McAvoy during my divorce made the process much less stressful and confusing. He and his staff are very helpful and wonderful at keeping in contact and answering questions during the process. If divorce becomes a part of your life definitely choose this law office to help with the process. You will not feel alone and confused, this firm will make your smooth transition a priority.

Derrick Barnsdale

We had a pretty tough case that had to be converted due to a job loss. Chris was always very level headed and did his best to keep my wife and I the same. He did a great job and if you ever find yourself in a bad situation, like we were–and I don’t wish that on anybody–Chris is a good guy to know.
