Awesome attorney

Professional, Courteous and Knowledgeable

I would faithfully recommend Mr. Ragucci to anyone seeking a truly professional, kind, and outstanding attorney. He was there for me through every step of my case, and diligently answered every question I had. Mr. Ragucci is very dependable and reliable.

Very professional

Mr. Ragucci represented me in a personal injury motorcycle accident. He was respectful and understanding and I couldn't have asked for better service. Him and his office Continusly checked in on me and my injuries and kept me updated about what was happening in my case all the way to the end .

Excellent service - Very Professional

When I thought my case was going no where, and limitation to file was coming up, my life took a pleasant turn and I met Mr. Ragucci. I explained to him the circumstances of my case, and after reviewing the documents and the case itself, he agreed to take it on. The first review is that they do not ...mess around. It was two and a half years that I had my first lawyer, and no progress was made - from the time I hired Mr. Ragucci, I had a court date if almost not the same time I was with the first lawyer. The staff in the office are extremely pleasant and professional. Every Time I had to call with a question, they answered it, and if they didn't have the answer they were sure to find it for me. In regards to Mr. Ragucci, when he took on my case he made sure he knew everything about my injury. At times I felt like he knew more than I did. Whether it was by e-mail, phone, if he was not available he always got back to me in a timely manner. If I was ever uneasy about something, he did not hesitate to set up a meeting to have me come in and go over whatever was ailing me. I never felt lost in what was going on during the course of the lawsuit. And during the depositions, when boundaries were crossed, he was quick to come to my defense. Mr. Ragucci will always make sure you are aware of what is going on during the case. He will lay out the best alternative or option to anything that comes up, and make sure you understand the decision is yours, but will lay out all the options, and make sure you understand everything you are choosing to do. Even outside the legal realm, he always made sure to see how I was feeling.How the case was affecting me. He always wanted to make sure I was doing ok, because a lawsuit can take a toll on you. Put simply. for any other case, or legal counsel I needed, I would not choose a different attorney, or even seek one. Before I had attained his counsel, I met my fair share, and even had a different lawyer, and none matched the professionalism and "getting things done". I would recommend him to anyone I new seeking an attorney, and with my say no one in my family would seek legal counsel elsewhere.

Consummate Professional

Attorney Ragucci represented me in a car accident case. From the beginning, he worked diligently to understand my concerns, investigate the accident and document my injuries. Attorney Ragucci insured that he and his staff regularly communicated with me about the status of my case. While the matter... was resolved prior to trial, having seen him in the courtroom, I knew my case was being managed by a consummate professional. I highly recommend Attorney Christopher Ragucci.
