Review Christopher Zachar

Excellent services and the best attorney

Posted by

Before selecting Chris, I had read the reviews. I have to say I'm glad I used this firm in my auto case. They were helpful in selecting a chiropractor close to my area and I did not have to drive out to their office. Our communication was based on Email and by phone. It worked great with my busy schedule as a student and employee. if I ever need an attorney for auto accident, I would definitely return. I was amazed at the settlement I received after paying out my fees. Thank you Chris and staff for your hard work and dedication to your clients like myself.

Excellent attorney!

I was injured in a car accident last year and was in need of a personal injury attorney. Chris Zachar and his staff were professional and excellent to work with! They were always there to answer my questions and they made me feel like family. I highly recommend Zachar Law Firm!

A Real injury lawyer with compassion and expertise!

Posted by

I was injured in an auto accident earlier this year. I was not at fault and suffered a couple of broken bones and a punctured lung. Needless to say, I was in pain and I needed a lawyer. I searched for a few days for the right personal injury attorney in Arizona and found Zachar Law Firm. I read a little about Mr. Zachar and realized that he was the Attorney I needed. The reviews and testimonials were spot on. I met with Mr. Zachar in person and thought I would meet with an assistant or someone else. It turns out I met directly with Mr. Zachar. Not only did he express his compassion for fighting for me, but he also showed his expertise. Needless to say I was impressed. Thank you Mr. Zachar for everything you did for me. Your staff was fantastic and I didn't feel like I was a client. I felt like a friend!

TRULY A CREDIT TO HIS PROFESSION!

Posted by

My daughter died Thanksgiving Day,2012, in a roll over accident in Apache Junction. After 2 months of fighting with insurance companies, I found the need for an attorney. Christopher and his staff were highly knowledgeable, great to deal with, and truly cared about me and my family! Honestly, I would refer him to guard the crown jewels, he is that trustworthy. Even though some of our requests were outside the normal, he agreed and abided by our requests. Thank you Chris, for all you have done!

I've known Chris Zachar - family and firm - since he was first out of law school. He always responds to my calls, inquiries and requests in a timely, professional manner.

Zachar Review

Posted by

Chris Zachar is one of, if not the most, hardest working individuals I have had the pleasure to meet. He is extremely thorough and does nothing halfheartedly. He gives the same effort in every case no mater the size or complexity. I appreciated his honesty and caring attitude throughout my case and I was pleased with the outcome due to his negotiating skills.
