Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Was refered to Mr. Gilbert by a friend and am very pleased with and fortunate to be working with such a great team.
Hands down, Chris Gilbert is one of the best lawyers you'll ever hire! Laser-focused on a successful outcome for his clients and at the same time mindful of the stress litigation puts on his clients. Results matter and Chris starts with the end result in mind and guides his clients to a successful outcome. When winning matters, Chris is the choice.
Chris has been a trusted partner in our I.P. filing and defense strategy. Cant' recommend him highly enough.
Chris Gilbert was my law partners prior to his relocation to the Dallas area. We worked together on many cases during that time, and we've continued working together even though we are now in different firms. Chris is a determined litigator with a good business sense - a rare combination! He excels in handling litigation matters that spread across multiple jurisdictions. I highly recommend him.
Chris is a true, dedicated, ethical professional. I have worked with him on cases involving commercial, entertainment, trademark and international law. If he doesn’t know the answers to issues or questions he and team always find and give succinct, prompt responses. He is a master strategist and negotiator who is always open to new ideas and advice. He is a pleasure to work with even in the most stressful times and he constantly gets great results.
Chris has a strong mind for business and is able to solve complex legal challenges in both individual and team settings. I retained Chris on a recommendation from a close friend for a business litigation and bankruptcy case. He got up to speed quickly, was able to efficiently organize and direct personnel by a providing a clear pathway to success, and provided the wherewithal to see the case through despite continuous curveballs from adverse parties. Chris comes highly recommended from all his previous clients for a good reason - he gets the job done.
I have high expectations for outside counsel on success and responsiveness. Chris and his firm have always provided this to my company, and delivered great successes in litigation matters that require close attention and quick action. I do not hesitate to recommend his legal services.
Chris helped me in so many ways with my case. I can’t express enough how impressed I was with his knowledge of the law and his professionalism. Such a great Human being. Chris is truly a brilliant lawyer. Tough as nails when he needs to be! Will not be bullied by other attorneys flexing tactics. Chris knows the law and is the person you want in your corner! He is also very generous and kind. He will always be my go to for help, consulting, and anything else related to law! My words can’t express my positive feelings towards this man! Total Pro and totally cool! The Best!!
Chris is a once in a lifetime attorney. We worked with him for 3 years on multiple cases that he was not only successful, but a pleasure to work with. He’s brave, well informed, articulate, highly intelligent, and trustworthy.
Chris was recommended to me, some years ago, by a trusted senior Attorney who I had earlier used on my company's most difficult commercial and labor law litigation over the past half-century. Based upon his recommendation, my company retained Chris to resolve a complex commercial case that resulted in litigation and trial appearances in three southeastern states. He has achieved outstanding results; in addition, his ability to assemble an outstanding team to effectively litigate the resulting matter within multistate jurisdictions, not only speaks to his individual performance but highlights a rare talent in assembling an equally effective team in other states. I view Chris as filling the role working with my son, as I retire and my son takes the "reins." Chris is a good, honest, trustworthy individual who has a rare talent in finding ways to achieve results.
