Worse attorney ever. How can a labor attorney defend a criminal case ? Makes no attempt to help you nor bothers to keep you informed of your case. Sits in court agreeing with the DA and not defending you. You are not treated as a person but a case to get over with and filed away. Get anyone else but Carlos

I will never have this public pretender as my legal advocate ever again, and I’d suggest you do the same. Worst public pretender to ever exist

I am a retired law enforcement officer from California. I served the people of California for 23 years. The day after my 50th birthday, when I became eligible to retire, my now, ex-wife had me arrested for domestic violence. She had been secretly recording our verbal arguments for 2+ years. I spent 2.5 years in jail and prison after taking my case to trial. Attorney Chris Carlos charged me 30K to go to trial. He refused to talk to me by telephone while I was incarcerated, and had asked me to write him letters, which he rarely responded to. He refused to request a change of venue to move the trial from the small county I was charged in, and worked in, for 14 years. He stated that he did not know the prosecutor trying my case, failing to tell me that he had served as the neighboring county’s deputy district attorney. He pressured me out of having my children testify in trial, which would have cleared my name. One week before trial, he had not contacted any of my character witnesses until I begged him to do so. He had told me, “It will be your word against hers.” He failed to put any effort into this case. There is so much more. I highly do not recommend attorney Chris Carlos.
