Outstanding lawyer
Mr. Chalgian did an excellent job in otherwise complicated and sensitive custodial case. Very well prepared. He kept us well informed and abreast of all matters during this rather lengthy hearing. Highly recommend him and we thank him from the bottom of our hearts.
Douglas G. Chalgian's Lawyer Endorsements
"Doug is a dedicated, bright and personable lawyer. I do not work in his community, but I know his reputation is excellent and his contacts are national. I highly recommend him."
"I endorse this lawyer. Doug is an excellent probate litigator. He has a keen insight that is the marking of a born litigator. And he works very, very hard. He obviously cares a great deal about his work. When he serves on a law-related committee or board, he does not merely show up to say "present." He contributes. And his contributions are valuable because he does his research and comes prepared. Doug gives his very best to what he does, period. He is both a talented attorney and a valuable colleague."
