My initial divorce proceedings took 18 months outside of California. And the subsequent matters of transfer of judgement and repeated attempts to resolve matters from the original divorce took an additional 12 years. With my first attorney in California nearing retirement, he personally recommended Dean Christopherson to take over my case. It still took over a year, but with a brilliant strategy and with diligence this case finally closed after 12.5 years. Working with Dean, I always felt reassured that he was fighting for me, he was always available to discuss the case, and he worked tirelessly to close all the loopholes being utilized by the other party. I am incredibly grateful that he was literally by my side. We won the case and were able to recover both the original payments and 100% of the accrued interest. His office was always thorough, punctual, and kind. As you can glean from above, I would wholeheartedly recommend Dean Christopherson.

We had a nightmare attorney who was suspended and did not disclose it and misled us into a hole we could not climb out of. Dean used the law to give us leverage and turn a hopeless situation around. What more can you ask? His attention to detail and his knowledge was simply masterful. I found him to be a clear communicator and a kind human being. I honestly think Deans ability to settle our issues favorably was exceptional. Without his capabilities I think it could have been a very different outcome. I am so grateful to him and recommend him with no reservations.

I got Dean's contact info as a recommendation because my situation sounded so egregious that the real estate attorney I spoke to felt I should at least consult with an attorney with this area of expertise. Dean returned my call on his vacation and then told me to email him the details, so he could review them and get back to me when he returned. He was so thorough, honest and caring that I wanted to give him a review, so people knew he was one of the good guys! He laid out the pros and cons meticulously and recommended that I follow up with him if I wanted to pursue my complaints with the seller and lender after the closing if I decide to go through with the purchase. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him if I decide to go through with it!

I have been working with Dean for over 15 years. He has represented my company on countless collection litigation matters with great success. Dean is not only extremely knowledgeable, but is also an excellent communicator. He is always honest and straight forward with his opinions and assessments, and conveys updates and developments in a timely manner. Dean has an extremely pleasant demeanor, and conducts himself with the utmost professionalism at all times. I would highly recommend Dean for litigation and other matters!

I through my business retain Dean Christopherson to defend us in matters that are at times complex, he is a great negotiator, reviews the facts, knows the pertinent law related to our defense, does not over expend fees and only bills for what he has done on the case. Dean has been successful in litigation matters in that we have prevailed. If settled, Dean has been able to negotiate the lowest settlement which I find very reasonable. Overall, Dean is a great guy and I have used him for more that 15 years.

I've worked with a lot of attorneys in my professional life but didn't have experience needing an attorney for personal matters, so it was pretty stressful finding myself in a conflict with my lender where I needed legal help to get it resolved. I was referred to Dean by an attorney friend who had worked with Dean in the past and couldn't have been happier that I was able to hire him to represent me. Dean has a lot of knowledge about banking practices and credit laws which was invaluable in my case because it turns out that my lender had been breaking some rules that Dean was able to quickly identify and this changed the conversation that had been ongoing to that point to my favor. I also appreciated Dean's practical approach to the situation, he understood that the situation was stressful and helped strategize and guide me to the best solution for me and I felt like he sincerely represented my best interests. Dean was also sensitive to costs and was clear about what costs would be, and I felt like his rates were fair and the work he did was high quality and got results. Like a lot of people I've heard horror stories of people being unhappy with the work an attorney did for them and count myself really lucky to have found such a knowledgeable, strategic, reliable, trustworthy good guy to represent me as my attorney. I have no hesitation recommending his services to others and would hire him again myself.
