Violation of No Contact Order, Domestic Violence
Freedom for the Innocent and Fairness for the Rest
When you need a defense attorney, you don’t just need any defense attorney. You need a defense attorney who knows how to win.

We know how to win.
This page contains just a partial list of cases we’ve won; the cases were won outright at trial, dismissed prior to trial, or the case was dismissed at or subsequent to sentencing.
Cases won at trial are highlighted.
When you hire the Law Office of Chris Van Vechten, you are in good hands.
