Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value
Mr. Pratt and his associates helped me so much. They were so level headed and gave me such great legal advice when I was beyond logical thinking due to emotions. Always responsive and helpful. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney to have by my side.

Chris Pratt showed great integrity, knowledge and in the end help me get a very detrimental ruling overturned. He met with me for an hour and had me write down numerous first and 2nd steps needed to resolve my issue and referred who he described as an expert in this legal area to me. He did not even charge me for all the great advice that led to my case being completely resolved. He is an attribute to the legal community as well as our community. Chris seems to be the exact opposite of the stereotypical greedy and unscrupulous legal professional. He has restored my faith in lawyers. He is running

My family paid him 1600 dollars to represent me. He saw me in jail one time then turned my case back over to my aweful court appointed attorney Matt Gish and just took the cash. I was innocent but he did not care. Just wanted money...not justice. I hope he learns to do the right thing in the future and not worry about being the Judge and furthing his practice

Chris is an excellent advocate for his clients. Over the course of several years, he has established himself as one of the best, most aggressive attorneys in Manatee County. He is the first person I think of when referring a potential client, as I have complete faith that he will handle the case effectively and zealously, from start to finish. I highly recommend Chris to anyone seeking the services of an attorney. He’s one of the best.

Mr. Pratt did an outstanding job for my son. He took care of all the details and made sure my son knew what to expect. He was very professional and personable, I would hire him again if the need ever arises.

The worse lawyer i have dealt with ever. His office is very unprofessional, he him self is a wreck, he showed up to court with no information at all on case i had to do all of the research on the case print it out and email to his office. When leaving court he gave me all his hand written notes i told him wouldn't it just be easier for him to take them instead of me dropping them off his reply was he couldn't because his car was a mess. He stated the next day he was filing motions asap i called all day the next day and was told he was out, in a meeting, at the court house, and handling some things
