A knowledgable lawyer who cares about his clients

I called Mr Gansen regarding my son's motorcycle accident. He called me back the same day. Then emailed me with questions and suggestions. He's very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend him if you want a lawyer who actually cares about you, not just their share of th...e fee.

Chris Ganson's great dedication and devotion to his clients in this case the car accident in which a driver hit me from behind.

I,am a very satisfied client of Chris Ganson. He is the most tenacious lawyer that i have ever had the pleasure to work with. He has one goal driving him, and that's protecting the rights of his clients. He doesn't leave any stone unturned and digs deep deep to find all the facts regarding the case ...at hand. He protected my rights to the fullest and got me a good settlement. He satisfied me to the fullest. You see after the accident i retained a lawyer who turned out to be lazy, unresourceful and just plain incompetent, so my friend suggested changing the lawyer to Chris Ganson and what a difference that made. The difference was night and day, and i found out that the previous lawyer had done nothing during the one and a half year during which i had hired him. Anyway Chris came to may rescue and did a stellar job. he is very honest, factual, and direct. He sent me to a new doctor who had a battery of tests done on me which the previous lawyer had not done. They did an advanced MRI which showed a 2 mm deviation from normal which is going to cause pain for the rest of my life. The first lawyer had only done an x-ray of my neck and it did not show anything. whereas theMRI done by Chris Ganson's doctor showed a misaligment of more than 2 mm which chris used masterfully in his presentation to the jury in court. The insurance of the person who hit me from behind played hard ball and let the matter go to court, and this opend up an opportumity for chris to do his magic. It was a performance worth seeing. He masterfully presented all the facts step by step and cross examind the doctors involved. He proved to the jury without a shadow of a doubt that the person who hit me from behind was indeed responsible for injuring me for life. My neck pain will hunt me for life unfortunately but at least i got compensated somewhat which the first lawyer was incapable of achiveing. i want you the reader to know that i am writing this as a wholehearted opinion of me regarding Chris Ganson who truly impressed me with his expertise, intelligence and all around capability in his craft and as a person.
