Knowledgeable, professional, and effective in handling complex legal matters
“Christiaan is a very good and responsive lawyer. He is on top of his clients. If and when you need him to fight for you or something (belongings) he goes above and beyond to bat for you.”
3
Compassionate and non-judgmental approach that puts clients at ease
“Christiaan is down to earth and listens to what you have to say. He does not pass judgement or look down on you.”
4
Flexible payment options and affordable services

5
Consistently positive experiences and high satisfaction among clients

Cons
1
Potential issues with handling eviction cases and serving legal documents properly
“BEWARE PROPERTY OWNERS of this extremely inept attorney. I still have a tenant who has not paid one. Penny in over 8 months. The case was dismissed and we had to refile because the attorney two appearances in a row failed to serve properly and the continued negligence led to a complete loss of 7 months of work.”
2
Lack of transparency and responsiveness in some cases
“After this happened I began to question his original commitment to us, and did not feel that I could trust what he had said about wanting to help us. He seemed to change what he said too many times to suit himself.”
