What Our Clients Say

LinkedIn

"Christopher is a cut above due to his aggressiveness & willingness to do with such vigor what we asked and wanted."

"The first case that Christopher Hanson handled for us was a lawsuit that we wanted him to fight - we wanted to win and to have this plaintiff go away. We got exactly what we wanted and we were happy with that."

"I enjoy that Hanson is willing to teach me what I don't know. He is terribly patient with me. I don't know honestly if I would get that from other lawyers."

"I hired Hanson for education purposes and for what we're doing right or wrong. It was great - it may have kept us out of trouble."

"They're pretty focused on what they do & don't do. From Chris you get a problem solving approach. As a broker, his perspective is better than someone who's only been a real estate lawyer and never worn the hat of broker."

"I have confidence in him - he's doing the right thing - competent in the technical aspects of his job and I can trust him."

"I love the mini law reviews and share them at my sales meetings - they're different and valuable."

"I feel that we've explored all paths before we come to a final conclusion on what we should do. Thoroughness ... confidence that he utilized all his potential and expertise to work on my case."

"A good lawyer, like Chris, is someone who specializes and has a background in real estate; he understands more, in-depth, on the practical side."

"I'm not going to work with any other attorney other than him. He allows you to do what you do best, which is to go out there and sell real estate. He really watches our back. He's proactive about it, and he doesn't sit back and wait for something to happen, he actually prevents it from happening."

"I've worked with many attorneys in the past. But, Chris Hanson, he's here to stay!"

Recording of Proceeding

THE COURT: "I felt that I had time to review your request because it is a fairly serious request for a judge to report an attorney to the State Bar and cite that attorney for misconduct. So I wanted to review that. And after reviewing it [a video of a train smashing into an 18-Wheeler in a trial where the plaintiff claimed brain injury after a 10MPH fender bender saying ‘it was like being hit by a train’], I was not prepared to cite Mr. Hanson [who represented the Defendant] for misconduct. That is a trial tactic, ...but...not an act that was unethical and for which I should cite him for misconduct and send that to the State Bar. It was an adversarial position that he took...I wouldn’t – probably wouldn’t have done it. I probably never was as good a trial lawyer as he is. I know lots of good trial lawyers who do very aggressive things"

Question from the Jury

In a case where Hanson Law Firm represented a Plaintiff, a jury asked:
Will finding the defendants guilty of a conspiracy to defraud change the amount of damages we award for the plaintiff? Also, is there a specified limit, or ceiling, re: the amount of damages that we can award?
