Simply the best

Chris Ziegler is an amazing attorney and advocate. But he’s an even more amazing person. There are lots of attorneys out there who can do a decent job, but Chris has a unique set of legal and personal skills that set him apart. Trustworthy. Knowledgeable. Dependable. Aggressive. Can not recomm...end him highly enough!

Best guy to have on your side, period.

Chris is an empathetic, knowledgeable, full service professional. He’s the kind of guy who will take what is bound to have been a painful incident, and make it less miserable for you and your family. He focuses on making sure you’re okay, and doing what’s necessary to get better, while he handles the... rest of it. My family and I are very grateful to him for resolving our case for us.

Great lawyer , awesome advocate!

Chris is a great lawyer who worked tirelessly on my case . Initially the insurance companies wanted to pay me pennies and no medical fees on my case , even trying to make me assume partial fault . Chris was able to get my medical bills paid and me compensated . He was proactive and reachable ( never ...had a issue getting him on the phone or via email ). I would absolutely recommend him to others , and I would use him again if the service is needed .

very respectful and polite

i have never had to have a lawyer but im glad that chris was my first. i was a little worried when all this came about not knowing what to expect. chris talked me through everything , and made me very comfortable. always answering the phone if i called and exchanging text. the whole process was very ...smooth for me. i harldly had to do anything. i hope nothing like this happens again but if it does i will be calling him back. thank you sir very much and it was a pleasure.

Attention to details was key

After an accident it's easy to fall prey to lawyers who are more interested in gathering numbers of clients than the unique needs of each one. With Mr. Ziegler, I never felt my case was not as important as others in his workload. I never made a phone call that was not answered quickly, or sent an ema...il or text that was not responded to. What I appreciated most was the advice he provided at the beginning which allowed my husband and I to develop an effective strategy, mitigate mistakes I would have made had I not had effective legal assistance, and most importantly stay realistic about the outcome. It is evident that Mr. Ziegler has lengthy experience on both sides of the table when it comes to personal injury litigation. That was invaluable. His advice was not always what I wanted to hear, but truly reflected the reality of the situation I was in. I was very, very pleased with the outcome. And while I hope to never be in another accident that requires litigation, I do know who I would turn to for help.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
