I was referred to Chris by a good friend who is a recently retired madison lawyer. From the first second I contacted Chis, everything was on track, no nonsense. He kept me updated on his every move in a very clear and concise manner. On our 3rd pretrial, the DA dismissed my case !! Chris expertly negotiated a BEST CASE SCENARIO for me. I am elated !! Chris is a seasoned, hard working expert. He lifted this huge "cloud " off my shoulders. I could not be more grateful. DEFFINATLY RECOMMEND

I just wanted to shout out the absolutely wonderful and compassionate care Atty Van Wagner showed myself and a friend of mine while going through a difficult case. Atty Van Wagner recognized the emergent and timely needs of our case and was willing to step in immediately and advocate for our needs. He was able to get the DA to drop all charges and recognize the case for the mental health crisis that it was. We could not be more thankful for the help Atty Van Wagner provided to us during such a difficult time.

Real life Harvey Specter Chris is probably the best defense lawyer in the entire state. Graduated from an Ivy League law school, with more than 4 decades of legal experience, Chris uses his expertise to help everyone with their case to his best ability. I made a good decision by switching from Tracey Wood & Associates to Chris, as he turned my case 180 degrees, in the right direction. During the latter half of my case, I started watch the show "Suits", and I think he is very comparable to the main character Harvey Specter. HE WILL DO EVERYTHING TO GET YOU THE BEST RESULT. He fights tirelessly, tries every approach, and gives you the best advices. While Chris is not a magician, and he does not have a crystal ball, he performs miracles for me time after time. (From getting me excused to court dates because I am attending school out of state, to going beast mode against the prosecutor in court and winning big). The day after my last court date, I sent Chris an email saying that "It felt like I was playing alongside with MJ on the 96' Bulls". I was so happy and I appreciate his help greatly. I am very impressed with Chris' work and I believe you would too.

My name is Theresa and he is the BEST lawyer I’ve spoken to in the whole state of Wisconsin! He gave me so much great advice on how to help my brother in our time of need and it helped me so much. He is a straight up guy and I appreciate that more than anything because it’s honesty that we need from lawyers, no bull!!! Eternally grateful for his help cannot recommend him enough! If I could I would give him 100/5 stars!!!

Some attorneys are just strictly there for the money and do as little work as they have to. I was a legal secretary for a few years so I met a lot of attorneys. Never in my life have I met an attorney like the man that I'm reviewing right now. He went above and beyond to save me from the biggest mistake of my life. He didn't care if it cost him money from not being hired as an attorney he cared about what was right and what was wrong and not many attorneys care about that anymore trust me. If you want sn attorney that tells you exactly how it is and doesn't sugarcoat anything, this is the attorney you want to hire.
