Compassionate, Knowledgeable and Aggressive

We hired Darl, following an automobile accident. He was a godsend and helped us throughout the entire process. In additional to being extremely knowledgeable, he is also compassionate and caring, which are traits that are not always easy to come by. He was able to negotiate a great resolution. I al...so appreciated the fact that he would proactively communicate with us and was readily available when we called. I would highly recommend Darl without hesitation. We were fortunate to have him on our case.

Automotive Accident

Unfortunately a few years ago I was car accident, and because my first accident caused me to seek out legal representation. I contact the champion firm. And the experience exceeded my expectations. So I have recently been in a second car accident accident. And again contacted the Champion Firm. This ...time I worked with a lawyer by the name of Morgyn Graber. And she has been awesome, she is very attentive, she knows the business, she always returns calls and emails in a timely manner, very easy to understand and work with, very approachable, she always speak with a smile and great energy, and you can feel that energy and smile over the phone or even in a email. She works with great integrity and easily shows that she values you as a client and make you feel like family. We have completed the first phase of our business relationship and up to this point she has exceeded my expectations. And I am extremely satisfied. I have full confidence and trust that I will be just as satisfied as we close out the second half of my case. I highly recommend this firm. Every attorney that I have been able to have the pleasure of meeting and working with from this firm has been awesome. I will always highly highly recommend this firm and any attorney that is affiliated with the firm. I thank Darl for introducing me to Morgyn. I love her she is the best. And let me tell you I always look for the best and the greatest quality and integrity. And I have found that within the champion firm and within Morgyn Graber. If you ever find yourself in the need of legal representation regarding a accident or anything that falls under the unbrella of what this firm can represent you for. Please reach out to them. I guarantee you one billion percent you will be satisfied beyond your expectation.

Aggressive & Effective

Attorney Darl Champion is an amazing advocate. He is aggressive and fights for what you deserve. He was excellent at keeping me updated at every step of the legal process. He really took the time to explain everything about my case clearly so that I fully understood all my options. He was sincere, sh...arp and extremely effective. I would not hesitate to hire him again in the future. I highly recommend.

A compassionate lawyer when you need it most!

Darl Champion was introduced to us after the loss of my husband. I was overwhelmed with the insurances, court case, and all the paperwork. He came in and took over all of the stuff that I couldn't handle. His work allowed me to focus on what I needed to (my children) and not worry about the things th...at were so complex and he fought for my family to receive the compensation we needed. He is an amazing and compassionate man, who will give his all to any case he takes on! I will never be able to repay everything he did for us, and I highly recommend him to everyone needing a lawyer!

Definitely a Champion

Darl was a pleasure to work with from day one. He came to my house after my car accident for the initial consultation and took it from there. He handled everything from the settlement to the hospital and disability insurance company coming after my settlement money. I didn't have to call for updates ...and was never left in the dark about what was happening. Darl actually seemed like he cared and wasn't in it for just a paycheck. He looked for every venue possible to maximize my settlement, and even reduced his fee so I could be better compensated for my injuries. I didn't even have to ask: he just felt that I wasn't getting enough, even though he got me the maximum pay out that was possible. Every time I did call him, he was available immediately and always had an answer for me. I've called him a few times (months) after everything was settled, sometimes asking him questions unrelated to the car accident and he's been there for me every time with answers. Chances are something like what happened to me wont happen again, but if it does, I know exactly who I'm going to call.

  • 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.
