False felony charges

From a person that has never been in trouble with the law, this was very scary for me. Wayne Jagow was recommended to me. As soon as I met with Wayne, I felt super comfortable and he put me at ease. The best thing is I always felt that Wayne believed in me and never made me feel like a criminal. Even... though the county made me feel like a criminal. Wayne knows the law and operates ethically within the law. Wayne reassured me throughout the process that if I am truly innocent and I tell the truth and back it up with facts the truth will prevail. Justice was upheld that day in court. When the county tried to stack the deck in their favor. Wayne knocked down their house of cards and countered every one of their accusations with the law and facts backing me up in my actions. I felt that Wayne fought for me and not a paycheck. I thank god every day for Wayne’s help. I highly recommend Wayne Jagow.

Detailed and passionate!!

My divorce situation was complicated. It included a history of domestic abuse, children, and my husband was a police officer. I started out with one attorney that didn't understand how to help protect me as a client and handle the on-going abuse. From the moment I talked to Wayne, he understood the s...ituation and was able to get my case back on track. He had my back from day one and went above and beyond to protect me from further abuse. His knowledge of the court system and ability to professionally and passionately handle my case constantly impressed me. He understood the danger of my situation and the complications since my husband at the time was also a police officer. Wayne went with me to every medication session, and made sure to keep my abuser in a separate room so I felt safe. Wayne took my safety concerns and abuse seriously from the beginning and made sure we had the right people working with us during the case. He has great working relationships with individuals in all specialities: custody evaluators, parenting consultants, and financial mediators. He kept me on track and guided me to keep things in perspective when emotions ran high. Wayne has an immense amount of passion and dedication to do what is right. He guides you to think about what is most important and helps you stay focused on what needs to be done, as divorces involving abuse are extremely emotional. I was awarded sole custody of my daughter, and Wayne made sure we had the proper wording and stipulations in place to deal with future issues that might arise. Wayne fought for our safety and always made himself accessible no matter what time of day it was. I have never experienced a lawyer that is as dedicated as Wayne. It is apparent from the moment you talk to him that he is not in this business just to make money. He sincerely cares about his clients and about a fair outcome. Wayne was always reasonable with the time he charged for, and I never felt like he was over charging me. I would recommend him in a heartbeat, and I know he will do great things in the future.

Excellent job

Found Wayne for a custody case on a Friday afternoon. He reviewed all my documents over the weekend and met with me immediately Monday. He told me exactly what to expect. He was responsive, but respectful of his billable time. 8 days later we had a preliminary court result that lined up exactly with ...what he told me the outcome would be. He worked with me on what I could afford to pay and never over billed me for any part of the process. He knows family law inside and out and I cant recommend him highly enough. I have worked with other attorneys to clean up custody issues and he was by far the most competent and effective. if you need a lawyer you'd be foolish not to call Jagow law.

Hired Gun

Wayne came to my aid at the arraignment of a criminal matter, and got me released on my own recognizance. He kept me well advised through the court proceedings, protecting my constitutional rights and resolved my case without a felony conviction. I highly recommend Wayne Jagow he is a very intelligen...t, and experienced attorney.
