What People Are Saying About Detwiler Law

I could not be happier with Christopher. From day 1 this gentleman made himself available to answer any question I had. He was always there for me. I always had communication with him and his office. He was by far the most polished lawyer I saw in all my hearings every time I had to show up for court. He beat my case. Chris and his law firm changed the course of my life. I could not be happier. I would recommend Chris and this law firm to any and everyone. I can not speak any higher of how I was treated and my case handled. He always took the time and made me feel like I was his only case when clearly I know he’s a busy person. He was absolutely incredible!!! Thank you again so much! I will never forget it!
Chris Detwiler is the BEST! He listened to me, was honest with what he would and could do and provide, and he worked hard to ensure the best outcome for my case -which was dismissed! He and his staff kept me up to date and they didn’t give up the fight for justice in my case. I would highly recommend him!
I had an awesome experience with Chris! He showed conscientiousness through out my case and he had addressed the clear picture of what to expect during the process. I highly recommend him as he as strong understanding of NC law and rules.
I hired Chris To represent me for a speeding ticket of 59 in a 35 in a school zone. He got me off with no points on my license and no Increase in my insurance. He, along with his whole entire staff is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and walked me through the process step-by-step. They offered prompt, clear responses to all of my questions. The communication with the office is top-notch. I am absolutely thrilled with my outcome. Chris is absolutely amazing and I would highly recommend.
Chris and his team were extremely helpful and at a great price. I had a difficult case that happened back in 2019 and I reached out to him for help after I continued the case several times. He was able to explain everything to me so I understood and was able to get my case dismissed and expunged. His team was available anytime I needed to ask a question. All for over a little over $400 he was able to help me with a DWLR (driver while lisence recovered), failure to reduce speed causing accident, and a hit and run case. His team kept me updated and did everything they could to beat my case. 100% recommend him to anyone who has a traffic case. His team is awesome.
Chris Detwiler was my first attorney and will continue to remain my go-to attorney because he is the textbook definition of someone who’s got your back. He is all things professional, attentive to his clients and their cases, clear in communication, compassionate in posture, and provides fantastic service all around. I’m so grateful that my friend recommended Chris to me and I’ve continued to do the same for anyone that is in need of representation for traffic tickets. Thank you Chris for all you do!
It's been a while since Chris helped me, but I definitely should have written this review sooner. While I was dealing with Chris, I was pretty rude to him. In spite of that, he always maintained a professional attitude and was polite and attended to my (overly demanding) needs as a client. Chris is polite, patient, professional, and good at what he does. If you're looking for an attorney, you found the right man for the job.
Chris and his staff made me feel like my case was the only one they had when it came to questions, updates regarding case, what to expect and how he was going to represent me. I was in awe of Chris when my case was finally heard, the knowledge he has and the way he dictated that knowledge, I can never thank Chris and his amazing staff enough. FYI thanks to Chris I was found NOT GUILTY. So if you're looking for a Attorney that has Your Back from Day 1 and Never Gives Up on You or Your Case, then look No Further than Chris Detwiler and his staff. A special thanks to Carleen and Erin.
Mr. Detwiler and his staff were awesome from beginning to end. When I called to see what my sons options were for his traffic ticket, Mr. Detwiler was very down to earth and "real". He explained everything and gave us best and worst case scenarios. When I hung up I didn't feel like my son was just another case to Mr. Dewilder. I knew he would do his absolute best to get the best result for my son. He genuinely cares and does everything in his power to get a "win" for his clients. Thank You!!
The greatest in the area! Mr. Detwiler was very thorough and set my expectations upfront. He was always available for my questions and concerns and he put me at ease throughout the entire process. He possesses a thorough knowledge of the law and defended me until the end of the process. He has an extensive knowledge of the judicial system and has affirmed relationships throughout the area. I would 10/10 recommend him to anyone. And his team at his law firm is superb. They are comforting, detail oriented, and reliable. I would also like to give a shoutout to Kaitlyn, she is the best. Look no more for a lawyer, he is worth every dime.
A ROCKSTAR IN YOUR CORNER Chris Detwiler is a true professional, and a ROCKSTAR in your corner . When faced with a criminal case in NC, I didn’t know what to do. Had never been in trouble before. After scouring the internet to find suitable representation, his information was at the top of my search……and for good reason… HE BELONGS THERE!
