I cannot say enough positive things about the law offices of Ryan D. Childers & Associates, in El Centro, CA. My boyfriend and I were struggling for two and a half years with a legal issue, which wasn't looking good. We live far from Imperial County, where the issue occurred, and had hired a San Diego-based attorney to handle our case, initially. However, given the differences between county procedures, we found ourselves requiring the services of someone more familiar with the nuances of the area.
We were so fortunate to find Mr. Childers through a search of reputable attorneys in El Centro, and could not have been more pleased with the entire team. From his polite and helpful receptionist, to his bright and adept associate attorneys, to his exceptional support team, EVERYONE treated us with courtesy, respect and kindness.
Mr. Childers, himself, is very well respected in the community, serving on multiple boards and committees, and happens to be the third-generation of his family to be born and raised in El Centro. He so loves the community that he is raising his own family there, as well. It seems rare to find a defense attorney who is invested in his clients' lives, but Mr. Childers took the time to get to know my boyfriend, myself and our infant daughter. His wife also works out of his office, as a real estate agent, and both she and his young children took the time to introduce themselves. I found this to be such a comfort during a difficult time for our small family.
When it came time to take our case to trial and we had to stay in town, two hours away from home and anyone we knew, Mr. Childers and his staff went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that we had safe and reliable childcare as needed, at no cost. This may seem small, but it made an already stressful situation vastly more manageable.
In total, we spent roughly one week in trial. Mr. Childers left not a single stone unturned, listened to our input and truly made us feel like we were all on the same team. He spent countless hours preparing his defense, dissecting the prosecution's case each day and anticipating any pitfalls we may have encountered. Throughout the entire trial, we felt informed and confident that there would be few, if any, surprises. When I had the opportunity to sit in court, Mr. Childers spoke with confidence, respect for everyone involved and armed with as many facts as possible.
We won, thanks to his efforts. Whatever the legal matter, be it a defense case, estate planning, family law, or any of the other legal matters his office handles, I would put 100% of my faith in Childers & Associates, every time. We are beyond grateful for their assistance, and so happy to have put the matter behind us and be able to move on with our lives. read more
