Best Lawyer ever!!

After being at a company for 18 years I had to have carpel tunnel surgery. Upon returning to work I found that the company would not let me return. They forced me to run out my FMLA then told me I no longer had a job. They would not acommidate any modified work restriction. I felt that I was treat...ed unfairly and discremanated against do to medical conditions. When I was told I no longer had a job I was devastated. I knew I was treated unfairly so I called multiple lawyers. I decided to go Jeff Ragers law firm and let me tell you it was the best decision of my life. It was a very long process but well worth it. They kept me updated and well informed of the process all the way. His professionalism and knowledge can't be beat. We ended up settling for twice the amount I thought I would recieve. Jeff Rager Law Firm changed my life for the good!! I very highly recommended Jeff Rager!!!

Very confident and loyal attorney

I am physician , was started my first job in new corporate company, around Feb,2013. After few months passed, I start to feel too much pressure in working place environment , so I had plan to quit my job, prior to the contact term finish. But, I have noticed that, the contract was binding contract , ...I was threatened by many people inside and out the company.  Who had bad experiences, noticed bad events , who ever leaving early from them. Then , I did seek two attorneys but , all of the sudden, they put me in doomed position with few days notice. Now , myself and my wife believed only the god!!. Yes!, who was introduced by another attorney Mr.Pedroza, in Los Angeles ,the excellent legal knowledge, too honest ,too humble, much humanity apart from all excellent leadership, decisions making person. After I received the court sue notice /orders , he gave the corporate company ,many chances/ time to withdraw, with great respect , humanity. He gave  time realize the facts , even beyond, nicely explain them they are wasting times and money . Finally , they took 5 years to realize the facts , though the company and their attorney played unethical tactics , but truth stood strong. The person , I mentioned above as god , he is Mr.Jeff Rager. He is highly professional, good hearted man, and his all staff too includes attorney Mr. James , secretary Ms.Alana and others. Mr.Jeff is very kind full, not money minded , best attorney , I have ever seen in my carrier. He is not only helped me and my family , but he did help many doctors , nurses and paralegals staff , to get more benefits, more than 40 year old organization cultural and strategy changes, contract changes, apart from this all, he helped indirectly helped many patients to get good health care by his actions. Openly, I have not find appropriate best words to explain his personality and professionalism. The best of best . He is a client well wisher. Mr. Jeff always put , Client safety and wealth than his legal fight. I left all decisions to him, he took care everything. Honestly, I did not do much, but he did all with passion and hard work. Mr. Jeff knows throughly about the case , statements, documents , even our statements we forgot.Mr.Jeff, is Highley protective to client , he always will be side by side , in each deposition , even to our witnesses. Even some point we have to go for appeal against the re-appeal by the company , Mr. Jeff ,took every steps and helped me a lot, I could not find words to describe that situation and his timely humanitarian helps. If anybody got as attorney Mr.Jeff, for their case , I will say , the client is very lucky , even a jackpot. I will recommend him 100 % . Also, I appreciate the current in charge team in my previous company , who took wise decision and also doing lot changes in taking care staff and patients . All appreciation goes to Mr.Jeff Rager. We pray for him and his family to get all best wishes and continue to help many people like my family. Dr.Raja . MD USA, MD India, MBBS, MBA

Super Lawyer!

I was a professional employee for over 17 years at a very large medical corporation. I was wrongfully terminated and retaliated against after reporting a major situation at work. I was completely devastated and it affected my entire life. From the first day I met with Jeff, he was professional ...yet empathetic and understanding of what I was going through. He was always supportive, available to address my questions and concerns, and made the whole experience much easier. I was very satisfied with the outcome and would absolutely recommend Jeff to my closest friends and family. Thank you Rager Law Firm!

Satisfied Nurse

I was referred to the Rager Law firm and I can honestly say choosing Mr. Rager to represent me was life changing. No one ever thinks they will be in a position to need this kind of representation. I was a successful nurse for over 30 years proudly serving my own community when I was targeted because ...I was advocating for my patients. Mr. Rager fought tirelessly on my behalf and brought my case to a successful resolution. I would highly recommend him not only for his professionalism but also his compassion. The communication to me from him and his office staff was timely and I felt very involved in every step from beginning to settlement. Thank you Mr. Rager for your time and effort.

Wrongful termination

I was an employee of a MAJOR Hotel terminated after almost 20 years of service I didnt understand why,so I decided to comtact an Attorney after reviewing many attorneys over a 2 week period I came across Mr.Rager so I called.Right from the start I was made to feel like my case mattered during my co...nsultation they gathered my information and I was told they would review it and get back to me . Upon reading a few of Mr Ragers reviews a few past clients went on to say if you are lucky he will take you case, so I sat back and waited hoping to hear from him because just talking over the phone I knew if he would represent me he was the one I wanted on my side, he was very up front honest and caring which made me comfortable. He told me he would take my case and it may be a long haul but he will be by my side through it all, he never ever made me feel my case didnt matter ,and by my side he stayed we went through depos and mediation he never let the Hotels attorneys get out of hand , he made 1 of the hardest times of my life a lot easier. He always kept me up to date and made sure I understood exactly what was going on, at no time did I have any dobuts in Mr Rager win or lose . He is a very honest and caring attorney and hands down a winner in my book. He had the confidence in me even when i was filled with dobut about myself. .He was readily available if I ever had a question no matter how big or small amazing and I am blessed that he is on my side. Thank you Mr.Rager for your hard work and your total dedication to me as a client I know you were the right choice by far..
