But our accolades are unimportant.

What clients say
"I highly recommend Chris Lumme who willingly assisted in our case and worked diligently over a lengthy period in fighting for justice for Hank the Neo Mastiff. We are so grateful for his dedication & eventual success in bringing our much loved pet home."
Tammy B.
What clients say
"Chris Lumme recently represented our son on a broad range of charges that he accumulated as a result of a psychiatric implosion. Although we could have afforded private counsel, the matter was dealt with entirely via Legal Aid, something that initially concerned both his mother and I. We needn't have been. Chris was truly dedicated, but also bright, thorough and tenacious. We were pleased enough that our son only received large fines and suspended sentences but Chris offered to challenge the findings. We thought this was "wing and a prayer" territory, but today we heard that all charges had been dealt with as "no convictions recorded", a truly stunning but inherently just outcome given all circumstances. We could just hug him. If you need someone in this area of law, I doubt many could do as good a job. An admirable legal warrior we heartily endorse."

Luke L.
What clients say
"I recently needed the service of Chris Lumme from Lumme & Associates regarding a traffic infringement for a seatbelt fine. I found Chris to be extremely professional and courteous. His knowledge of the traffic infringements and the review process was very impressive. Thanks to his assistance in bringing to my notice my rights for a review and the excellent advice he gave me I was able to get the information required for Chris to complete my review of the traffic infringement notice. It was successful, the infringement fine was waived. I highly recommend Chris Lumme and his office for any legal matters."
