I highly recommend Christoph law Offices. Easy communication and showed great experienced. Mr. William Christoph really helped me in my case. He explained my options and I was happy to get exactly what I asked for. Best DUI/Criminal Lawyer in Vista!

I chose to work with Bill Christoph based on his client reviews. They were spot on! When you need an attorney, it is because you are in a time of crisis and need great communication. Bill always took my calls and if he was out of the office, he always got back to me right away. His years of experience and relationships with the Vista Courthouse go along way to getting you a favorable outcome! If you do get a DUI do yourself a favor and start going to AA meetings and getting your attendance signed off right away. Also get yourself into an outpatient rehab center. Those two steps will go a long way the judge in getting your sentence reduced.

He’s been amazing with my case. I got the bare minimum for my charges, and was done and able to move on with my life in no time. Recently the court messed up some of my paper work, and issued a warrant. He was able to fix it all for me, and recall my warrant. Once again back to life.

I would like to take this moment to thank you for your professionalism and support regarding the traffic ticket I received for racing on the freeway and being clocked at 136mph. Although, we can not always guarantee the dismissal of a ticket you were by my side all the way through this stressful matter and thanks to your outstanding ability I thank you for WINNING my case.

Respectfully,

Nicholas is one of the most genuine and helpful people I have ever met. He not only gave me solid advice, but he was there to listen to me in my time of confusion and need and offer the reassurance that he and others are there to help. It is very rare to meet people of such caliber from a referral, and I will be thankful everyday for meeting him. I have a new lease on life, and that is because of the help of Nicholas Christoph.

I will be recommending Nick to everyone I know who needs a lawyer until I am no longer able to. He is everything you can expect in a GREAT LAWYER and so much more. He listens, he offers sound advice, and most importantly he helps you understand the entire process without making you feel inferior for not understand the process of lawsuits, etc..

If you have any doubts about hiring a lawyer out of the large pool of lawyers in this world, well, DO NOT hesitate hiring Nicholas Christoph. He is the REAL DEAL, and on top of that one the best people on this planet.

Thank you again, Nick! You have a friend for life with me!

Mr. Christoph is an outstanding dedicated lawyer. I was in need of legal council to represent me for probation violation. I was facing a year in jail, and without the dedication and outstanding work that Mr. Christoph put into my case I don't believe I would be a free man right now. I have not had endless experience with different lawyers. But if anyone needs representation in San Diego CA for criminal law Mr. Christoph is hands down the best in my opinion.

I can only begin to explain how outstanding Nick has been through my process. I always felt secure and free of anxiety during and after every interaction. He was with me every step of the way by keeping me updated and being available to answer any questions or speak to any concerns. He's even followed up with me a couple of weeks after my case was resolved to ask if I was getting through the rest of the system with ease. He has assured I can call him if I ever have any questions at all. He's a genuine, compassionate and down to earth person who seeks the best outcome for his clients. The firm is top rated in reviews and Nick has been endorsed by other local attorneys. Every case is different so without going into detail I want to say I am very satisfied with the resolution. For anyone looking for quality representation, look no further!

Nick Christoph helped me with my DUI case and I know I wouldn't be in a better situation in my life if it weren't for him. At the time feeling helpless and hopeless I went to his office expecting to be let down and gladly I was wrong. Nick Christoph in my eyes went above and beyond and I was more than satisfied. I highly recommend.

Called over the phone and would not give simple advice without a retainment fee of 10,000 dollars. Money grabbers. Dont use this useless office. A lawyer who cant advise you to file a complaint or hire a 10,000 lawyer first before speaking with you is a joke. Hope anyone who uses them has a better experience.

I highly recommend Nick to represent you. Out of all attorneys out there he is in the top percentage of his profession. Upon meeting he brought to the table a Plan A, Plan B and Plan C so we had options and a game plan. He returned calls and emails promptly, kept me up to date and is extremely knowledgeable, professional and friendly. Thankfully he had my case thrown out completely, but no matter what the outcome I wouldn’t have gone into a courtroom without him. My entire future was at risk and he was able to put my mind at ease and do his job with confidence. When everything is on the line that’s the kind of lawyer you need.

William Christoph handled my case and was able to get the charge dramatically reduced. When talking with me about my case, he spoke with empathy, integrity, and decisiveness. I wasn’t looked at or treated like “just another case.” He truly cares about how a bad decision can negatively impact your life and will fight to get the best possible outcome. Highly recommend.

I made a bad choice in my life and was at risk of getting a terrible DUI. While feeling sorry for myself, someone suggested getting an attorney. I didn't initially even entertain the idea because I have difficulty asking for help. I searched over all the DUI attorneys and read all the reviews very carefully. After spending a while it seemed that Christoph Law Offices would be the best.

The office convenient and close to the courthouse so you know the office is committed to helping those that need to be defended. I have really good intentions to live a better life so after my family and I talked to him, we agreed the first day to hire him as our attorney. He is thoughtful and educated. He is concerned and to the point. He is very experienced, disciplined, and knows exactly how to break down what could seem like a complicated situation.

Most importantly it became obvious over time that once in a long while you actually meet someone that really cares about helping someone live a better life. It felt like through the whole experience that his intentions were good. He knows what not to do and key points that must be done. He knows what is relevant and what is not. He was reasonably priced. I told him absolutely how much I wanted to turn my situation around and he listened. His office is clean. His staff is helpful. I happened to work mostly with William Christoph.

Let me just say, he lived up to everything I had hoped. It made all the difference in the world. I went in afraid and came out of it 100% relieved. I cannot tell you how glad I am that I got an attorney and that it was William Christoph. He was able to help the court see my sincerity. I feel like because he is knowledgeable and experienced that he seems very credible to the legal system and well intentioned. I have to say it may seem lucky but it wasn't all luck. I knew when it was over that it was smart to hire his law office. His expertise reduced the most important part of my DUI situation to way beyond expected. I was elated by the results.

I by the way plan to honor my part in everyway. You also have to put in the challenging work for this to go well. I am not trying to say he can wave a wand and fix everything. I am sure there are times where he can't work a miracle. In court sometimes things obviously don't go as planned. All I am saying is if you want the best chance possible to get a quality result then this is the law office you need to call. After today, my family and I are entirely grateful for his help and it possibly changed my life. He did everything as intelligently planned as possible. Thank you... Christoph Law Offices!!

Nick and William Christoph are awesome! Back story: I am a small business owner and my wife and I have a 7month old. I received a a call from collections that said I owed the city of Solana Beach $900 for running a red light!! I thought this was a scam and contacted my small business lawyer just to make sure (although he was great for setting up my LLC he wasn’t much help looking into this) apparently I was caught with one of those traffic cameras running a red light. I had moved several times this year and didn’t get the original ticket of $490 which in my opinion is ridiculously high, for a first time offense, and for anybody trying to live in San Diego.. so I was sent to collections and fined for not paying. As soon as I talked to Mr. Christoph he went right to work setting up a court date and got all the paperwork together. His son Nick went to court for me and got the whole thing dismissed!! I DIDNT HAVE TO DO ANYTHING!! These guys are like superheroes and super easy to work with. Don’t waste your time with anyone else, Christoph Law Offices are the only lawyers you want to work with. Thanks again!!!

William Christoph was our first experience with a defense attorney.  My husband got into a little dispute with an Oceanside Police Officer, not good.  Mr. Christoph met with my husband and I and worked magic, getting charges reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor (public disturbance), with a very small fine and unsupervised probation.  My husband was very lucky and learned a lesson from all of this.  Mr. Christoph did a wonderful job for my husband, he was very accessible to us and was very kind.  His fee was very reasonable.  We highly recommend Christoph Law Offices.

Mr. W. Christoph did a wonderful job representing my son on a very serious felony charge. His knowledge of the law was helpful to myself and our family in understanding the entire criminal process. Mr. W. Christoph fees were completely reasonable and a bit low for all the work required to defend my son. Lastly, based on his professionalism I have retained Mr. W. Christoph service again to assist myself with other legal matters. Good job

After my dui i had very little time to get the ball rolling. I went to a few dui law firm websites including william christoph's giving them all a bref discription of my case and contact information. Not only was william christoph the only firm to contact me back, he did it within hours of the time i left my information. He was very knowledgeable in the dui process as well as able and willing to help me. I would have been lost without Mr. William Christoph. He got my my charge dropped to a lower charge with lesser fines and he appered in all my court hearings in my place allowing me to continue working and going to school. If your looking for a good dui deffence lawyer i recommend christoph law offices

In August, I received a letter in the mail notifying me I had to appear in court in two weeks with two misdemeanor charges filed against me and I was looking at jail time. I started to panic not only about what was going to happen, but also not knowing where to go to look for an attorney. I looked online and found a few, but the reviews Christoph Law Offices I had read were better. After giving a few places a call, I decided to set up the free consultation I had read about.

I met with Nick and I explained everything that had happened. He listened and a moment after a huge weight had been lifted off of my shoulders. He told me exactly what he was going to do once my court date came and assured me he was going to do everything he could to help my case. He also was very understanding and knowing I was a student he allowed me to make payments and offered me a very reasonable price.

After the first court date, I really knew I had made the right choice hiring Nick. He told me how it went and told me he had done everything in his power and that the rest was up to me, which was not much. I had to do a certain number of hours of community service and an online class. Not only did Nick get me the best deal, he even got me an appropriate time frame to get everything done which was extremely convenient, as hard as it is already balancing school and work. Of course I completed everything by the set date and my case was over by December.

I never had to set foot in the court room and he kept me updated and calm throughout my case. One misdemeanor charge was dismissed and the second was bumped down to an infraction which I could easily get expunged in year. This was something that could have ruined my future and something that had me panicking and worrying like crazy. In the end my future was no longer threatened by a mistake I made, and throughout the entire process I felt no worry. Nick genuinely cared about me and did everything he could for me. For that I thank Christoph Law Offices and would recommend them to anyone looking for a great attorney, you will not regret it.

I hired Mr. William Christoph when I was in a very difficult position in life. He was the first lawyer I spoke with that seemed genuinely interested in helping me, and not just my money. He cared about my future and worked diligently to assure that I had one, both in the military and as a civilian. I have referred several friends and acquaintances to him, and will continue to do so.

Hands down Nicholas Christoph was the best money I've ever spent! My past came back to haunt me. After a year in custody and 6 months in a residential treatment program the DA filed charges against me that were than more a year and a half old. It was a felony charge and the DA wanted some serious consequences and Nicholas worked a miracle!

After talking with a few attorneys who didn't feel there was much they could do for me Nicholas assured me that he felt very optimistic from the gate. He was understanding, compassionate, and definitely had my best interest in mind. He was able to get my charge dropped down to a misdemeanor with no probation which was a hundred times better than I ever expected.

It gets better...His flat rate was LESS than what all the other attorneys wanted just to get started and he offers an easy, no hassle payment plan which should fit most financial situations.

Thank you Nick for all your hard work and dedication!

We retained Nick Christoph in a Misdemeanor Vehicular Manslaughter charge. The case took over a year to come to trial and in that time, Nick was always available to us, thoughtfully considered our concerns and was always timely in his response. We always felt as though he was personally invested in the outcome of our case. After a trial of 3 days, the jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty in 30 minutes. We credit Nick Christoph with this successful outcome. We would gladly recommend Nick Christoph.

Had a DUI handled by Bill Christoph. He mastered it better than I could have asked for.
When I met Bill the first time, I knew he was the right guy, and he did an excellent job. He got my sentence way down to where you can't complain.
He always kept me posted, made sure that I wouldn't miss any deadlines and had that I had every info I needed. He did the DMV hearing and the court with my attendance, which I'm very thankful for that. I hope I don't need to work with Bill again...LOL. But if I have to get another lawyer at one point I would choose him again. Thank you, Bill!!!!!

I met with Nicholas Christoph for a free consultation. He was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. I was very comfortable, and didn't feel rushed at all. My case was rejected, and didn't need any further legal action, but I would have been clueless moving forward without Nicholas' legal advice. My free consultation remained exactly that... FREE! I will be going to Christoph Law Offices for any/all future legal needs, and will be recommending them with 100% confidence. I couldn't be happier. Thank you so much Nicholas!

My parents and I requested the help of Bill Christoph after I was convicted of a DUI two months ago. Not only did he get me the absolute best conviction that was possible, he was excellent at explaining his every plan and keeping me involved at all times. He was helpful and always made time to communicate, whether it was me calling him, him calling me, or me stopping by his office at a last minute notice. I was at first reluctant hiring a lawyer but he was worth every penny and I would refer him to anyone going through a difficult but similar dilemma.

Sincerely, a very satisfied client
