Over the past five decades, I have owned or managed a number of corporations that did business with companies all across the country. This experience gave me the opportunity to interact with more law firms and attorneys than I could count. With that background, I have a good perspective on what makes up the kind of law firm I want to deal with. I was extremely pleased with the manner in which the Vernon Litigation Group handled my investment dispute with a national brokerage firm. Chris Vernon and his team of lawyers and paralegals demonstrated a level of professional competence I have seldom found in a law firm. And, most importantly, my case was brought to a very successful conclusion by the Vernon Litigation lawyers. An additional thing that stands out in my mind is the personal interest shown by every member of the firm who was involved in my case. I would highly recommend Vernon Litigation Group to any investor in the United States who has been taken advantage of or lied to by their investment professional.

"Mr. Vernon not only repeatedly demonstrated his professionalism and competence but also his steadiness, consistency, compassion, and trustworthiness. They made me feel comfortable and secure in my decision to retain their services."

I needed the assistance of a lawyer and I was given the name of Chris Vernon by several professionals. I subsequently met with Mr. Vernon and chose to work with him as his well-regarded reputation for professionalism and competence was quite evident upon our first meeting. Over the course of my legal case, Mr. Vernon not only repeatedly demonstrated his professionalism and competence but also his steadiness, consistency, compassion, and trustworthiness. With these attributes, Mr. Vernon and his legal team made me feel comfortable and secure in my decision to retain their services and manage my legal case.

Chris Vernon has been involved in litigation on my behalf over the last several years, with two complicated cases. He and his staff are very responsive and provide a high level of service. He never seems at a loss to delve into the complexities of a difficult situation and has an excellent knack for breaking a case down into its basic elements and developing a strategy from there. I would highly recommend an exploratory call to Chris if you have the need for litigation counsel.

In 40 years of employment in the securities industry, sales, and management, I have had the good fortune to work with a number of capable securities law attorneys.

My wife and I had a rather large lawsuit that we had filed in the Sarasota area last year. Chris and his staff very responsive to our needs. They told us what to expect and they went above and beyond expectations when they performed work for us to move our case ahead to a speedy conclusion. We intend to refer all of our legal issues to Chris and his team in the future as they were very honest and forthright. We have other attorneys to whom we could refer our business. However, even if Chris doesn’t or can’t take our case, we’re sure that he will provide us with an honest and objective opinion. In short, we would refer anyone to Vernon Litigation Group.

"The advice they gave and the actions they took literally made the difference between our family having a home or being left temporarily homeless. We're eternally grateful for their swift actions that ended in our favor and a home for our two young children"

First time either of us have ever had to hire an attorney and we needed immediate help - like less than 48 hour turn time. Vernon Litigation counseled us on the applicable laws and helped us determine the best option in our short window of opportunity. The advice they gave and the actions they took literally made the difference between our family having a home or being left temporarily homeless. We are eternally grateful for their swift actions that ended in our favor and a home for our two young children. We never expected to be in a real estate deal that could get so bad to the point of needing an attorney, but life is unpredictable and sometimes hiring an advocate is necessary to ensure your rights are protected. We cannot express how grateful we are for the assistance we received!

You gave us back our life. You stood with us and took on the nation’s largest and most powerful industry and YOU WON. Pleased is the most understated word I can imagine, but I am not William F. Buckley, I am just me, and so at that moment, words failed me. Your closing arguments were the perfect combination of our family principles and understanding of the law and rules of evidence that I could ever hear. I could not have ever imagined that you would be able to cobble together a combination of law & evidence, and ethics and fairness in one hour. I could not have asked for better representation than that which you two provided to our family In the future, if you chose to fight for a cause, do not take on Wall Street, the largest and most powerful industry in this nation. BUT, if you do choose to take on Goliath, do it with this team. You two were simply awesome. You outgunned one of the largest law firms in the world, representing one of the largest and most powerful companies in the financial services industry, for a seemingly average family in Naples, FL. AND YOU WON! That is what you fought this for, and YOU WON.

"It was only after I engage Mr. Vernon and his that I began to have hope, I cannot commend Mr. Vernon and his assistant enough. He was able to successfully recover the assets, where many had failed."

My name is L.B., I was represented by Chris Vernon and his Vernon Litigation Group. This was a very long, complex case involving overseas jurisdiction in the Cayman Islands. I have been trying to recover assets owned by a holding company that belonged to my father for over 20 years. At that time, I had employed three different law firms and changed the management of the hold company, all without any results. It got to the point that my stockbroker asked me why I was throwing good money after bad. It was only after I engage Mr. Vernon and his that I began to have hope, I cannot commend Mr. Vernon and his assistant enough. He was able to successfully recover the assets, where many had failed. I find it disappointing in these times that the only way to receive justice is to sue in a court of law. These suits can take many years and incur onerous upfront expenses. I was approaching my breaking points; and thinking of throwing in the towel. To anyone that needs a litigator that is not afraid to go to court I would sincerely recommend Chris Vernon and his Vernon Litigation Group. He got me results when others could not.

My wife and I want to thank Atty. Chris Vernon and his team for taking on our fraud case against a major banking institution. We could not have been happier with the successful results which exceeded our expectations. Atty. Vernon and his team are professional, competent, caring, and trustworthy.

We would recommend Vernon Litigation Group to anyone in need of an excellent law firm.

I feel lucky to have Kristian Kraszewski and Chris Vernon as my counsel. Basic values of ethics and honesty (which I feel that they both have) are much more valuable to me than money.

"Highly recommend Attorney Truitt and his team!"

Our client needed a firm with expertise in complex shareholder derivative litigation and claims. Attorney John Truitt was exceptional to work with and was great at explaining the options and guiding us through the legal process. He was integral in getting the case settled so that the clients could avoid costly litigation but was also prepared to present a strong case if we ended up in trial. Highly recommend Attorney Truitt and his team!

Victor Bayata and Vernon Litigation were instrumental in helping me negotiate my sign-on agreement with a top tier wealth management group. I believe they did a wonderful job of protecting my interests. That said, I believe what distinguishes Vernon Litigation from other law firms is their ability to help individuals think about the legal implications over the long term and how this could impact someone’s career. Therefore, I am grateful for their objective counsel and I would recommend them to anyone looking for sound legal advice.

"One of the best law firms in the country"

As a former practicing New York, Virginia, and DC attorney and now President of an international medical device company headquartered in Texas, I know how to recognize a lawyer’s lawyer. The team at the Vernon Litigation Group fit that description. They are well versed in all aspects of the investment and business world. They have decades of experience in taking on the financial industry, Wall Street, big business, and big law firms. I have witnessed how they collaboratively and effectively employ strategies and aggression to position their clients to obtain the results they want and need (as opposed to the activity oriented approach I see in some law firms). The lawyers at Vernon Litigation Group consistently exceeded my expectations. Founding partner Chris Vernon is one of the best lawyers that I have ever worked with in the nation.

I unwittingly got myself into a situation that was as disheartening as it was expensive. I entered into a contract with someone, who I felt had manipulated me & had applied unfair pressure. Vernon Litigation Group took on my case. They kept me informed every step of the way, were very easy to work with, and stayed within the dollar amount that they quoted me. They resolve my situation beautifully and I was relieved of the stress and financial burden that had been causing me sleepless nights! I highly recommend Chris Vernon, Jeffrey Haut the rest of the staff at Vernon Litigation Group.

As a former client and fellow attorney, I can offer a unique perspective on the Vernon firm. From the professional viewpoint, the Vernon team works for hand in glove with each other to serve the client’s needs, recognizing that claims born in fraud require immediate attention and continuing vigilance. At the first conference, I felt relieved by Mr. Vernon’s obvious expertise in this legal area, as well as his reassuring “chairside manner” that my problem deserved answers.

Chris Vernon and his firm, Vernon Litigation Group, go far beyond being technically skilled at the practice of law. They are creative strategists who stay steps ahead of their opponents in business and financial disputes. The firm is substantial enough to take on billion-dollar corporations (and their law firms) yet is small enough to give clients personalized attention. I appreciate Chris’s combination of an aggressive and proactive approach, with a temperament that allows for calm in situations that (for the client) can be anything but calm.
