Chris Perri Law

Review №1

Rating: 5

Chris Perri is - in my opinion - the most talented habeas attorney in Texas. While I recommend you hire Chris before your family or friend needs a habeas attorney - Chris Perri is who to go to if that person had an incompetent trial attorney or if new evidence has come to light. For me as a Republican to think so highly of a former Democratic congressional candidate should say something. Competence trumps politics. It goes beyond saying looking for a habeas attorney is not the same as getting a traffic ticket attorney. I recommend any family member or friend to review Mr. Perri s briefs in the Texas appellate courts. Win loss records are tough to glean in Texas since almost all won cases are expunged. However, there is one really cool statistic that is true as of the date of my review. For writs of habeas corpus (do a partial search of WR and then Perri at the CCA website), Chris has 6 pending cases out of a total of 18. Most of the other habeas attorneys with notable Google presences as in the range of 1 or 2 pending cases out of like 50 total cases. Find me an attorney in Texas with a better publicly available writ percentage. I don t think you can. Furthermore, that percentage cannot include the won cases because of expungement law. Furthermore, I urge you to go in and look at even the cases Chris has lost. We re talking writs of habeas corpus here - not getting a lawyer to sign you up for defensive driving. Every single case that is challenged by local officials has an objection. Furthermore, almost every single case has gotten at least an independent review by the CCA. This does not happen with most lawyers much less those who go pro se. Chris has a vetting process which is easier on the budget and fair. Finances aside, this protects your loved one from having a poorly written writ actually filed and you then have no more realistic bites at the apple for your family member or friend. I have paid Chris for a charitable writ of habeas corpus case that is still pending (it is for the 1 client of Chris Perri s that is not in TDC) at a discounted rate. (In the anticipation of potential ultimate victory and expungement, I am not posting the case name in this review. However, even if the final outcome is adverse, I know Chris put up the best fight of any attorney and I know his client has and will have all of Mr. Perri s briefs to deal with any potential future background issues while the case is pending or if God forbid there is an adverse outcome in a system designed not to allow writs to be considered easily.)

Where my last lawyer failed, Chris prevailed. Battled getting my record expunged for over 5 years with a budget attorney before giving up. Should have called Chris from day one. Responded to my emails within 24 hours and gave clear-cut advice. Glad to have my issue resolved finally would recommend him to anyone needing an expungement.

Chris Perri is the attorney to go to in Austin for anything Criminal Law related. I had an issue that had been haunting me for over a decade and Chris reached out to me by phone and talked with me about my case and thoroughly explained the process. He wasn t pushy, wasn t aggressive, wasn t overpriced like most attorneys I had interacted with before him. He was actually quite personable and down to earth and easy to talk to. If I had any questions he was very prompt to respond by email. If I have any future issues, I know who to go to!

We are very pleased with our experience with Mr. Perri. He answered our call - even though he was on vacation - and began the process of taking care of our needs immediately. The process was easy and quick with completion weeks earlier than he had promised. He is very personable and easy to communicate with. We highly recommend his services.

Chris is an excellent attorney! I won t go into the details of my case publicly, but what I can say is that he was able to get everything taken care of without me even stepping inside a court room. Extremely friendly, knowledgeable, patient, kind, and has an absolutely great attitude. I highly recommend his services and thank him for helping me in one of the most chaotic and stressful times in my life.

Chris is exactly who you want to represent you; he s thorough, compassionate, and works constantly to get the best result possible. Chris updated me constantly throughout the process and answered any and all questions I had. He managed to get a result that I didn t think was possible. I couldn t be happier with the experience. 5 stars!

A family member had a complicated legal issue, and not only was Chris able to get the best imaginable outcome, he did it at a fraction of the price other lawyers wanted to charge. Was always kind, professional, and accessible. Cant recommend him strongly enough!

Professional, knowledgeable, honest, forthright, fair and extremely thorough. Chris is unlike any lawyer I ve ever dealt with in the past. I m a hard guy to please and although I live outside Texas Chris made me feel comfortable and important. Despite the fact we ve never met !! He handled a few decades old pending charges against me and had them dismissed in record time. It s quite obvious that Chris knows the players in the Austin legal arena. A defense attorney that s well known and respected by his peers in the DA s office is invaluable. I firmly believe that was the difference maker in my case. If anyone ever needs a competent and results oriented defense lawyer on their side give Chris a call immediately. I m glad I did..

I was wrongfully convicted and was sentenced to spend 25 years to life in prison. Mr. Perri came in and applied his knowledge and expertise. I can now breath and enjoy my new life. Words are not enough to express how thankful I am.

Chris is by far the most patient, responsive, understanding, diligent and intelligent attorney that I have had the pleasure to work with. Truly a great person, with all good intentions and is not privy to taking shortcuts or making quick bucks. Chris is one of very few attorneys I still keep in touch with over the years. He always has a resource or referral for even far-fetched legal matters compared to his field, and is always willing to lend his advise or simply an ear. Honestly, a review doesnt do justice for the quality of work that Chris provides. I wouldnt recommend anyone else.

When I got my speeding ticket last year, I emailed Chris to help me navigate what my best next steps were. He quickly handled the first steps and then gave me a very detailed and helpful response of what I needed to do next. He helped me navigate through my ticket with such ease! Would definitely hire again if I have any future needs.

Chris was a great attorney and worked diligently to win me a great deal. Chris was quick to respond and was very knowledgeable of the system and able to explain everything to help me understand my options. I knew from our first meeting that Chris was the right attorney for me. In the end Chris was able to have my case dismissed and return a better outcome than I anticipated. Overall I was very satisfied with his professionalism and kindness. I have complete trust in Chris and would recommend his legal counsel and defense to anyone in need. Thanks again Chris!

Chris Perri is the most intelligent and caring lawyers. He fights like hell for his clients, spends hours listening to their needs, and knows the laws inside and out. A powerful speaker, he is extremely strong in trials. I feel so grateful to have him on my side, and I would never want to go up against him!

Chris Perri is an excellent attorney. I have never been his client, but he has represented a few people that I know, and every one of them has been very happy with his services. As an attorney, I have worked on one case against Chris, and I would rate him among the best criminal defense attorneys that I have ever worked against. I hope I never need a criminal defense lawyer, but if I do, Chris would be the first person I call.

Chris came to speak to UT Austins Young Americans for Liberty chapter about ones constitutional rights when in an encounter with a police officer. It was a great seminar that drew plenty of students from the University of Texas community! Hes obviously very experienced in his chosen field and has plenty of experiential knowledge to draw from that made the talk even more informative and entertaining!
