Client Reviews

Chris Cain is an amazing Attorney, he helped me so much with my case and kept me updated throughout the process until everything was taken care of. Fast, efficient and get’s results and also super reasonable with his prices. Highly recommended!!!

Isabel O.

Best LAWYER in TOWN!! Hands down!! Without the help of Mr. Cain I’d be in debt and several points on my record. Can’t thank Mr. Cain enough. I would highly recommend you hire this man immediately for all your traffic and criminal cases!!

Montana R.

Best lawyer I could have chosen, beat the case and saved me my license and money that came a long with it(insurance and fine). I was going 130mph and Chris did his best to stack the deck in my favor, I was looking at automatic two points on my license and a 30 or even 60 day license suspension, lesson learned, don’t speed on California highways!

Dizaster

I have hired Chris Cain to take care of traffic violations on multiple occasion. Each and every time he is clear, direct and extremely helpful. Chris has either accomplished lowering the fine/punishment or getting the case dismissed on each case he has taken care of for myself, as well as individuals I’ve recommended him to.

Nathan D.

I would definitely recommend Chris Cain for any traffic violations in Monterey county or thru highway 101. He was very knowledgeable, helpful, and was always responsive/easy to get ahold of if I had questions. He showed up to court for me and got my 2 point violation down to 1 and helped me avoid suspension. I would definitely hire him again if needed.

Andy Y.

Straightforward, Honest and professional, Attorney Chris Cain was able to explain the legal process as well as possible rulings and outcomes. Very quick to follow up and obtain the legal documents required for the case and easy to communicate with and get a hold of.
