Call Chris Happ and you won't regret it! He's not pushy and his office provides a low stress environment. It was exactly what I needed during those challenging times.

I recently went through a nasty separation/divorce. It was impossible to communicate with my ex, thankfully Chris's professionalism and honesty kept things moving forward. His education and court room experience is impressive. We went up against my ex's older "veteran" attorney but Chris's extensive knowledge and excellent memory gave us a clear edge up.

I recommend Chris to everyone that needs

I highly recommend Christopher Happ for family law. He is a super smart lawyer who considers all of the issues before offering his advice and opinions about your case. He's honest, and responds in a timely manner when you need to reach him. His office staff are professional and I never felt like anything except a valued client.

I found Chris by referral after having a nightmare experience with another lawyer, and was already jaded by the legal process. Chris took a complex situation and worked through it piece by piece until the situation was satisfactory for both myself and my ex. We had

Having an excellent professional lawyer and staff makes all the difference in a Divorce. I was recommended to Mr. Happ given his experience and knowledge of the Family Law Court Systems.

Never having or planned to go through a Divorce. Chris was there to explain all the steps and what to expect during this whole process. He never over promised the outcomes of my Divorce (Time with Children, Child Support, and Finance support to the Divorcee). Just straight facts and what to expect.

Divorce is ugly no matter what. Having an experienced Lawyer will have major impacts on your outcome. Chris was

We have hired Mr. Happ 3 times. As my husband and I like to say, "we don't have a lawyer, we have a HULK!!!" Mr. Happ has always been absolutely great. He works super hard, and it has always paid off, and won our cases. Their is no other lawyer/hulk we would even consider. It's Happ Law Group all the way!

I recommend Christopher to anyone who is looking for someone to represent them in family law in a professional, honest and ethical manner. I was fortunate to have Chris recommended to me by the Men's Legal Center after they were unable to represent me due to a conflict of interest. Chris has since represented me for numerous years and has earned my trust, respect and admiration. Chris was responsible for a very favorable judgement in a very complex case which was compounded by unfavorable divorce terms based on receiving poor attorney legal advice before I retained Chris. Here is what you can expect

I wholeheartedly recommend Chris Happ as a divorce attorney. He and his staff are consummate professionals who treated me with respect and made me feel as if I were their most important client. I definitely felt my money was well spent, in particular when I compared Happ with another attorney who was involved as a mediator in my divorce case. What a rip-off she was. Also, Chris’s personal assistant Ame’e was also a delight to work with.
Thanks folks!!

Christopher Happ was amazing on my case. He was compassionate, very knowledgeable and helpful and made what was a very emotional and trying time for me a little easier. I was confident having him represent me and ended up very satisfied in the end result. I highly recommend Happ Law Group.

I had an exceptional experience with Chris Happ and his wonderful paralegal, Ame'e. In a seemingly overwhelming situation, Mr. Happ was able to help me understand each step of the process thoroughly so that I could make appropriate decisions based on my circumstances. All of my phone calls and e-mails were answered in a timely manner and Mr. Happ was on time and prepared for every court hearing. I was particularly impressed with their attention to detail when the other party was not responding appropriately. Every situation was handled with professionalism and I was cc'd on every e-mail

Chris Happ was a great help, getting a favorable custody decision. Chris is organized, and well prepared before going to court. He makes good use of his time, and yours. If you are in a custody battle, or just want to minimize drama and court time, it's hard to go wrong with choosing Chris to represent you. I've had so many attorneys before Chris, that waisted time, my hard earned money, time in court, and ultimately moved my case forward very slowly if at all. Choosing Chris was the best decision I made for closing my divorce, and a favorable custody decision. Thank you Chris Happ!

I was over a barrel, I knew nothing about "Family Law." I found Chris Happ, through a recommendation from friend's. As a client I felt like I was informed and knew what to expect each step of the way. I came away from my last court date with what I hoped for going in to the process. I was very happy with my representation from the Happ Law Group.

Mr Happ and his staff absolutely exceeded my expectations. I was going through a really tough time with my divorce proceedings and needed a strong, professional presence in court. Mr Happ was recommended to me by a friend who told me that Happ Law group is exactly what I needed and I would feel at ease. After my first meeting with Mr. Happ I immediately started to see progress, he was on the case and took charge. I am a retired Marine who was dealing with awful situations that required the best. I was treated like royalty and am forever in his debt (not financially) but a serious debt of gratitude

Chris Happ has represented me multiple time within the past 6 years. I have also referred him to friends and family. I can not say anything negative about him, his services and his amazing paralegal Am'ee. Him and Am'ee have always been there when needed and taken care of everything my case has needed quickly, professionally and accurately. I have put him through 2 divorce cases, child custody, child support, and a CPS case .
He is always honest and straight forward with what the outcomes will probably be and realistic about my demands being fair or even worth fighting for. My questions were always

I would recommend Christopher Happ to everyone who needs a smart, honest and credible family lawyer. He is articulate in his thoughts, puts the pieces to the puzzle together in a way to tell the truth and hopefully earn you what you deserve. He is extremely prepared for all situations in the courtroom which allows him to stay composed in the heat of battle, analyzes the many options that develop and offers brilliant advice to allow you to make the best decision. He has a strong analytical and financial perspective, to add to his qualities. He's a hard worker and dedicated to getting you everything

Chris Happ represented me in 2016 & 2017 with my custody agreement for my son. He was a huge asset, not only helping facilitate all the paperwork and court proceedings, but also helping me work through my questions and determine what aspects I wanted covered in the agreement. I would recommend Chris for anyone looking for an attorney to help with a custody agreement. He was always responsive and professional. His paralegal Ame’e is also great and was a huge help as well.

The only reason I am only giving him a one star rating is because yelp won't let me give him no stars, plus there is no negative star rating selection and no stars would be too high of a rating. I spent over $6,000.00 and all I got was lost time with my children and a dead beat dad status because the ball was dropped and my child support payments went to another area of the state than where it was supposed to really go. If you like a person who doesn't consider your demands and is a mouthpiece for the courts then Chris is your man. Long as you shut up, let him do his job to line his pockets

I have worked with a few attorneys. Mr. Happ is one of the most professional, genuine, prepared & intelligent attorneys that I have seen. He is extremely efficient & knows what he is doing. He is prompt and does not waste your time (or money). He is very reassuring and produces good results. I recommend him to anyone who needs a Family Law attorney.

Christopher Happ, of the Happ Law Group, was my attorney in a divorce that was very painful, but necessary. Mr. Happ was very professional, and his advice was extremely valuable to me. He prepared well for hearings and was very timely in his communications with all parties involved. He proved over and over again that he would do what was BEST for me. His fees were very reasonable.

Divorces are most often not east. Having the right attorney helps the process immensely. I would recommend him to any of my best friends or family members if they every needed the services of a family law attorney

The only consultation they did was aksing me my address, work, how much money I made and lawyer talked over me on the phone to get me to make an appointment but wouldn't allow me to ask any questions. ...We need a lawyer that will listen. Would have been happy to make an appointment with someone that seemed less like the "old used car salesman".
