Mr. Wagar was very helpful. He and his staff kept in touch every step of the case. They were thorough in their investigating. All my questions were answered in a timely manner. I pray I never need again, but Mr. Wagar would be my first choice for an attorney. He helped me help my family. Thank you just doesn't seem enough.
Nelson W. Wagar gave detailed information on the concern I had and it really helped me come to a conclusion that I wasn't sure about at first. He's understanding and he works with you to help out the best way he can
I have known "Chip" Wagar for several years now in regards to a medical malpractice case. He has always been compassionate, caring and informative about all issues of the case! Best Atty I have ever worked with! If you want an Atty, who is on top of his game you need Chip Wagar, Atty!
I am so thankful I chose Chip Wagar in my time of despair. I lost the Love of My Life, my daughter Chela at the age of 8yrs old due to negligence of her doctors. It was my duty as her mother to make sure this horrible standard of care provided didn't go unnoticed. After contacting Chopin Wagar Richard & Kutcher, LLP law firm someone responded to me quickly. I saw Chip for a consultation, he listened to my story and we immediately connected. Chip was very compassionate and encouraging with his advice. He informed me that it would be a very long fight but one he and I was willing to fight to the end. He remained professional at all times but also had a sense of humor which made a very difficult and emotional situation run smoothly. Whenever I had a question or concern, Chip or someone from his office contacted me the same day. This made me feel like I was a priority even though I know they have other clients. I was even sent cards and flowers throughout the year reminding me that I was thought of and that they care about my well being personally. During the entire process Chip contacted me numerous times to explain what our next steps would be and addressed any concerns I had if any. Chip provides excellent legal representation along with his partners Richard(Dick), Sarah and his assistant Ann Wilson. Words can not describe how grateful I am to have this law firm represent my daughter Chela and I. If you are looking for a high quality law firm to be behind you 100%, a warrior for you and your family I would not hesitate to recommend Chip Wagar. You and your team are a blessing to Chela and myself. I thank God everyday that I chose you. In the end we WON VICTORY FOR CHELA!!!!
Mr. Wagar handled my husband's medical malpractice case. He was very professional and treated us like real humans and not just clients!
