5.0/5.0 Review for John W. McChristian Jr. by a Managing Partner on 10/04/10 in Medical Malpractice Defense

I have had a number of cases with John in which we represented co-defendants. John is ethical, knowledgeable, an excellent advocate for his client and a good role model for the young associates who work with him.

5.0/5.0 Review for John W. McChristian Jr. by a Partner on 09/19/10 in Medical Malpractice Defense

John is one of the finest trial lawyers in Texas. A year ago we were defense counsel in a two week medical malpractice case. For me every day was like going to an advanced trial advocacy program. He is certainly deserving of the AV rating.
