Christopher Kendall Law Office - Hamilton (NY)

Scott Bourgeois After wasting time and money on other attorneys, I was referred to Attorney Hamm by a mutual friend. I had a difficult divorce with a difficult opposing lawyer. Ms. Hamms professional handling of my case was in sharp contrast to any of the others I dealt with. She has a way of making a person feel completely at ease in her office when discussing sensitive issues. My emails and phone calls were responded to quickly and were attentive to my concerns. Attorney Hamm was always very conscious of what my costs were. We had upfront discussions about the risks and costs of each strategy for my case. At no time did I feel pushed a direction that wasn’t solely in my best interest. I highly recommend her to anyone.

John Waldron Dean Riggi is the best lawyer I know for a very long long time he was my mom and dad lawyer for years and he was very good friends with my uncle Barney and if I need help he would go out of his way to help me out I would never give up and get another lawyer because I would keep him as my lawyer so I give him 100 percent for the best lawyer money can buy

Michael Graf It is without malice or prejudice that I emphasize that I could not more empathetically NOT recommend this so-called "Law Guardian." While it is sad that court appointed attorneys are simply overworked and underpaid, they are regardless, custodians of the Law. To keep a caring and loving mother from her child WITHOUT CAUSE & without the ability to find a parent "unfit" as defined by law, is absurd. Shame on this cowardly so-called attorney. She should be disbarred from practicing family law. Shes a stain on the very fabric of what the law is supposed to represent. Shame also on the institution that has given her unprecedented leeway to do as she pleases without both reason and rebuke.

Angelo Chuchuca A big THANK YOU to Bet , Maria Mateo, and her wonderful team for assisting me in my immigration matter. Bet was very helpful and patient with me during my process and I would gracefully like to say that my case was resolved and I recommend them 100% ! !

James Chatwin Ive sought legal advice from Mr. Hopkins on many occasions. Hes always spot on. Top notch lawyer with a wealth of experience.

Cristina S In the community, Charlie has always been kind, patient, respectful, and personable during any of my interactions with him in past years. I recently contacted his office on a Saturday night hoping to speak with anyone in the coming days about a possible legal matter. Charlie called me, himself, first thing Monday morning! Right away, he provided me with more information, ideas, and direction than I could have imagined for just an initial phone call! Charlie truly is a knowledgeable, determined, and honest professional who has a genuine interest in helping others. I highly recommend him without any reservation!

Ronald McKnight If you’ve had this office represent you and you loved there service then this isn’t the review to read. This law office didn’t investigate my case properly back in 2019 and he actually even went a step further, he flat out told me he didn’t have time to investigate because he was working on a higher profile case and proceeded to tell me intimate details about the case. Let me start off by saying everyone says they are innocent but I’ve actually got proof of my innocence and I even showed it to him, to which he responded, “what am I supposed to do with this information? I told you I don’t have time to investigate.” Now back to what I was saying, I grew up in foster care and after I turned 18, I was packed up and dropped off at a local community college I was attending and basically told have a good life. I had no idea nor any knowledge about law. I say all that because if I truly understood what I was signing and agreeing to, I’d have never signed the plea deal and went through the court proceeding. Honestly if he investigated like he was asked to do I wouldn’t even have to sign a plea deal because the charges would’ve been dropped or dismissed. I’m still waiting to hear back on my appeal, which I’m starting to feel was never filed. All due respect to the deceased but the man screamed at me and forced me to sign a plea deal right before sentencing and when I told him I didn’t want to sign it, he lost it and screamed “sign the damn paper!! I don’t care about any motions you’ve filed” and after I signed it he goes “sorry it’s Monday and I’m stressed.” I’m sorry but that’s not good legal representation at all and my case actually has holes in it enough to be won if properly handled by a competent attorney. I am not blaming him for me being in the situation I am in but more so calling out his neglect to do his civic duty for me as his client. I have to live with a negative social stigma that if i’m being honest, I’m very undeserving of and it has literally made my life impossible

Rhonie Luciano So far my experience has been a very positive one with Joseph’s help and guidance. I feel much more confident with my next steps after experiencing my first car accident.

Ruth Harvey After participating in a Planned Giving event at the Clemens Center where Patrick presented I reached out to him to see if he was available to provide an in service for our staff. He gladly accepted and provided a wonderful overview of our topic which was "Wills, Trusts and Estates". Patrick shared several documents to help staff with this topic and was very knowledgeable in answering their many questions. His office was very helpful in planning the in service. As a result of this in service staff are now more familiar with the many guidelines and requirements and have the tools they need to move forward in planning. THANK YOU.

Dorothy Kilroy Facing a lawsuit was an extremely daunting, worrisome experience for both me and my family. While some attorneys did not even answer our messages, Mr. Brown took our concerns seriously and assured us that he would help us resolve the issue, which to our great relief, he did. Mr. Brown was reassuring, knowledgeable, and always kept me up-to-date on whatever was happening with the case. If ever I was confused or uncertain about any part of the legal process, he would do a great job at thoroughly explaining it to me so that I understood. He also always consulted with me before making any major motions, decisions, etc. to confirm that I was on board. Thanks to his expertise and skill, a very difficult part of my life is now behind me. I would recommend his services to anybody.
