I fell down my stairs in 2008. They were built incorrectly and not up to code. I sustained a neck injury and had to have surgery on my neck. I retained an attorney that I thought was going to help me but she didn't. I was very frustrated and disappointed so I did some research. I researched and contacted several attorneys in Denver that handled slip and fall cases but was not satisfied with the initial phone conversations or actual meetings. In June of 2010, I found Mr. Koupal on the internet and was impressed with his profile and credentials. I contacted Chris and set up an appointment to meet with him. I found Chris to be very knowledgable, professional, confident and a man of intregrity. Chris agreed to take my case and also helped me handle the dismissal of my other attorney in a very positive and professional manner. From that point on, he proceeded to research, investigate and move forward with my case. He kept me well informed almost on a weekly basis for over a year. Chris always emailed me back or contacted me by phone regarding the progress of my case. As a result from the neck surgery, I had accquired many medical bills that totaled thousands of dollars. I felt confident and at ease knowing that he was doing everything he possibly could to resolve and settle my case. Chris knew that I didn't want to have to go to trial and worked very hard to make sure that we would avoid going to trial. He had his work cut out for him as the builder had vanished which made my case more difficult and challenging. He managed to collect enough evidence to allow me to settle out of court and to reach an amount that I thought was acceptable and fair. I was very pleased with the outcome and would recommend him to anyone that needed a personal injury attorney. I have the highest respect and regards for him not only as an attorney but as a man who cares about his clients, his family and his practice.

Chris was introduced to me by Jim Chalat (Chalat Hatten & Koupal), who had originally met with me to gather the information and details about the case. Chris, having been briefed by Jim as to the particulars, was immediately up to speed. He was very professional, thorough and knowledgeable as well as compassionate. His experience and expertise in the area of ski injury liability was very evident. He always was extremely clear in keeping me abreast and explaining my options as the lawsuit progressed. My emails and phone calls with my concerns were always responded to quickly. He obtained an excellent settlement for the circumstances that were involved. He followed up on the minor issues as well. I recommend him enthusiastically without any reservations.

Chris is one of the very few lawyers who actually care. I had a very complicated medical malpractice case that my prior lawyers screwed up. Chris reviewed my case and spoke with me several times at no charge. He took on my legal malpractice case and won. Chris is very caring, smart, and knowledgeable. He goes to great lengths to insure you are in the best hands. My only regret is not finding him in time for my original medical malpractice case.
