Amazing services

Christopher and Leslie where very helpful through out our criminal case and never left us with unanswered questions. I felt like the truly cared about my son and his well being. Even then we were waiting on the DA to make decisions the two of them ensured us that we would be ok and that they are doing everything in the power to keep things moving. There was frustration in our case as we would not hear from the DA until the day before court and sometimes not at all. Chris did his best to keep reaching out and got my son the justice that he deserved. Anytime that he was in court his assistant would let me know what was going on and answer all of my questions. They went above and beyond for our family and always lead with care and compassion

Chris Welch and Leslee Cadenas

Chris Welch and Leslee Cadenas were very helpful through out my case. I had been extremely shaken and nervous about what was about to happen to me. After my consolation with Mr. Welch, a lot my worries were put at ease. I was very impressed about the quick response to my emails and questions from both of them. During the time of my case, I felt that I was given good advice from Mr. Welch. I Would recommend them both to anybody who has the need for a defense attorney.
