1 in a Million

Doug has worked with my wife and I on a very difficult case. He was extremely responsive and made himself available seemingly around the clock (via both phone and text). Throughout the course of the case Doug was encouraging, made things easy to understand, and was tireless in fighting for our intere...sts. Honestly there were times we wanted to give up, but Doug's steady hand kept us "on course" and we're glad we stuck it out! I can't recommend Doug highly enough. If 100 Stars was an option he'd get them all in my book!

Fire in rental and my son was horribly injured

Doug Churdar was hired to represent my son in a rental fire where my son was horribly Injured with 2nd and 3rd degree burns. Doug was relentless in finding the truth and treated my son like family as we (husband and I) moved thousands of miles away for employment. He took my son under his wing and ...helped him to get results for the landlords negligence in a stove repair. I would absolutely recommend Doug and his team to anyone in need of an I jury attorney. He kept in continual contact and informed us every step of the way. Doug and his team are special individuals, as they have absolute care for the individuals they represent. I personally thank you Doug for your perseverance and hard work to get a very nice outcome for my son! I appreciate everything you have done!! Thank you and your team!!!

Strongly Recommend

I can't recommend Doug Churdar and his law firm enough. When no one else took on our case, Doug though he could. We liked his up front frankness not to always expect miracles, but to expect realistic final results. We liked Doug on our initial visit which lasted a couple hours. Doug did not hurry us ...and was very thorough in obtaining all the facts. We were so pleased that he was recommended after another law firm thought our case wasn't worth their time. We finally settled our case which was presented giving us options, and was pleased with the final outcome. He also took the time to do our living wills and will be doing our final wills as. Doug was prompt on answering our questions, even in his off time. He listens, he reacts, and he gets results. Before our case settled, I have him to thank for saving a life. My husband's, and for that I will always be grateful.

As a well established and highly effective Greenville lawyer, Doug has a diverse track record and sterling reputation that only a diligent and hard working professional may obtain. He helped me every step of the way after I was blindsided out there on our unpredictable roadways; it came out of no whe...re... Pull out your phone and save his number NOW in case you need it in a pinch, take it from me... you'll be glad you did. *Be sure to refer him to your loved ones and friends

Hit & run bike accident.

Last year, I was involved in a hit & run incident. A vehicle hit me from behind while I was cycling. I suffered a broken neck, broken leg & broken ribs. I was recommended to Doug by a friend who told me he handled these kind of cases. Doug dealt with insurance company to make sure I satisfactorily co...mpensated. I was very happy with his professionalism & diligence throughout.
