My claim was handled quickly and professionally. My attorney contacted me several times during the process to check up on me. I was kept updated regularly regarding any changes in the status of my case. The settlement meeting was conducted at my convenience and all my questions were answered.

Attorney Graham Wiemer has represented me on more than one occasion regarding issues with placement and child support post divorce. While dealing with my unpredictable ex-husband and his distasteful attorney, Graham remained confident and professional. Graham makes his clients feel comfortable and is always looking at the big picture while putting the best interest of his clients and their kids first.

Chris became counsel for the WLEA while we were mired in contract negotiations with the state. He came prepared and was familiar with our issues on day one. Chris was organized and methodical. I firmly believe that he reset the table and moved the talks in our direction. I have also seen Chris argue discipline cases. He brought the same skill to bear in that arena as he did for our contract negotiations. I have been in LE for over 20 years and he is one of the best litigators I have seen practice law. Chris has also represented our members in issues relating to duty disability claims and has even represented our members in civil injury cases. I make this sound like Chris is a one man show. He is not. His office is staffed with multiple attorneys that I have the same confidence in.

This was a union and employment matter in which I was illegally terminated by managers who had a score to settle against me ever since I beat them in a prior discrimination lawsuit. My case with Chris MacGillis went the full distance in front of a judge and we won. The agency that terminated me had to reinstate me and provide back pay. During the hearing, Chris MacGillis was articulate and very smart about how he handled the process as well as the questioning of witnesses on both sides. He wasn't at all afraid to call them out in front of the judge on things that were clearly senseless and only done with the intent of targeting me personally. In all honesty, he made them look like fish out of water during our hearing; they couldn't have looked worse in my opinion. I cannot express enough how extremely important it was for us to win this case as the outcome would determine my ability and the feasibility of also suing the employer in federal court for retaliation; an action that is now in process. I would highly recommend this office for your personal or employment matters.

Chris represented me a personal injury auto claim from 2015 (while on duty as a LE officer). I was referred to Chris by a referral agency. My consult with Chris was not only informative, but free. There was no fee to hire Chris, he made it clear that if he did not settle/win the case, there was zero expense. I had reviewed Chris prior to meeting with him and a lawyer of his caliber and reputation made me feel at ease. This was also verified when I first met with him. Chris was very reasonable also, I lived about 1 hour from his office, so he met me at a close spot. I knew speaking to Chris that he was a genuine person and actually saw me as a client and just another case that would sit around (and eventually/hopefully settle). Chris told me throughout this process it would take time and he made sure MY best interest was always the top priority. Even though Chris is the one doing all the work, he makes it clear every time that you (as the client) are always in the drivers seat. My case did take a few years to be all said and done, but this was due to the other sides dragging their feet and being unreasonable. Chris is not your typical lawyer who is so quick to get your case to settle. Chris will go to bat and is not afraid to take your case to a jury trial. Chris also went to bat for me against Work Comp and was able to get a decent amount of my bills reduced. Chris kept me informed the entire time and again, always gave me his expert advice on what we should do. Chris was also always reachable anytime virtually. He would respond to e-mails on his days off, call me on his own time or send me texts with updates. Chris spoke to me a lot on weekends, when most lawyer’s do not have time for you. The main things I appreciate from Chris is his compassion for his clients, his vast knowledge and skillset when it comes to personal injury claims, his desire to get you what he thinks you truly deserve and how much effort he puts into each case he has. Again, he doesn't look at you as another case. Make no mistake when you look for a skilled injury lawyer, you need to have one who is well educated, reviewed, respected and is not afraid to do what needs to be done. Injury claims take time and sometimes a lot of them, but every case is different. I like how Chris again was in no rush to get my case settled. He invested his time and money to represent me and I can't thank him enough. Chris is a Top 100 lawyer from National Trial Lawyer, a Choice Award Lawyer from AAVO, Top 10 lawyer under 40 from National Academy of Personal Injury Lawyers. This is just a few of many awards he has gotten. After my experience with him, I can see why he has these prestigious awards. If you review these awards, these are not something handed out for participation, these are given when they are earned. Chris is also someone I now consider a friend and will be my ONLY lawyer I use for anything he handles. Thank you Chris for taking care of my best interest and getting this matter resolved. Chris is also an avid supporter of first responders and this was also a reassurance that I picked the right lawyer. “John Wick”

I was involved in a vehicle accident that I wasn’t at fault. The other parties' insurance company tried to pin the fault on me knowing the other driver was at fault. To make matters worse, the Insurance company offered a ridiculously low offer and refused to give me a decent compensation. The vehicle accident had permanently scarred me for life. MacGillis Wiemer, LLC was highly recommended by a coworker, so I decided to hire him. I am glad I did. I was impressed by the amount of effort and work he put into my case. MacGillis took me through a step by step process. MacGillis was more than happy to take the case to trial if needed. MacGillis was more than prepare for the trial and exceeded my expectations. After winning the trial, I was awarded 20 times the amount the insurance company had offered. I highly recommend Macgillis because he is experienced and he is an understanding attorney that is willing to fight for what you deserve.

I hired Chris for a personal injury case. Working with Chris was nothing short of fantastic. He had a very poised professional demeanor during cross examinations and mediation. Chris was tenacious and detailed in building my case and kept me informed every step of the way. He and his office were always available for any of my questions. More importantly, Chris aligned with my values. We had lengthy discussions where he listened to my thoughts and expectations which he applied into his work. With his professional mannerism and advise, I never felt lost in my case. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thanks again Chris.

Great job with my personal injury case and communicating on my behalf. Chris always called/emailed and kept me updated with my case. Highly recommended firm!

I have hired MacGillis law twice. First time was for a rather sticky divorce case. The firm was able to work out an amicable settlement regarding property and me hanging on to my pension. I was so pleased by their work for me the first time, that I contacted them again for an injury I received due to an unsafe condition. I made contact with the firm and was kept updated along the way, via phone and emails, and letters. I was quite pleased with the final settlement, and was always treated in a friendly professional manner.

After consulting with several Attornies Ryan was refered to me from a colleague, I am glad I chose Ryan. He was reasonably priced and delivered on everything he told me he would do.

Ryan is extremely professional and knowledgeable. He provided me with the best information to make the most sound decisions. He took a vested interest in my case and did everything he could to get me the best outcome given the circumstances. He took the time to listen to my concerns and what I hoped to achieve. I couldn't have been happier with his performance and especially his effort to protect me. You need to call Ryan as he will do the best job possible regarding yourself and your family.

WORST ATTORNEY EVER.
