Applegate Law Office

Charles is very professional, stayed in contact during my case, and diligent. He's also very personable and easy to talk to. He was able to get my case dismissed! I would highly recommend him to anyone that is in need of an attorney to fight for them.

I'm grateful that I found Charles! I needed a lawyer to resolve a situation that had been a burden to me for quite some time. Charles was diligent and responsive during the process, helping me to understand all my options. He was respectful, and honest about all the possible outcomes. Charles followed through with everything he said and worked hard to get me the best outcome. I definitely recommend his services and am deeply appreciative for his good work!

I had the good fortune to have hired Charles Applegate for a personal injury lawsuit. This type of thing can be very nerve-wracking and stressful and, certainly, nothing that I had experience in at all. From our first meeting and throughout this process, Charles walked me through what needed to happen and what I needed to do. He was incredibly responsive and returned my calls or emails almost immediately. All that I had to do was complete an assortment of documents, provide my own documentation to support my claim, and attend a deposition. Charles took care of everything else. He was very respectful of my feelings and my injury; he never made me feel like my lawsuit was frivolous. We agreed upon a settlement amount that ranged from acceptable to awesome. He negotiated an amount that exceeded the awesome amount! I negotiate for a living, and I've got to hand it to Charles. He fought for me and pushed the opposing lawyers to come back with a hefty settlement. I wouldn't want to sit on the other side of the table from Charles. He was relentless. I cannot recommend him highly enough. I hope I never need his services again, but if I do, Charles is the only lawyer I would call.

Charles provided excellent service to my family and I when we needed a lawyer for an auto accident injury. He and his staff were professional, kind, patient, and timely throughout the process, from beginning to end. We had a positive outcome and experience with him, even while dealing with a not so positive injury. I would absolutely recommend Charles and his staff.

I have used Mr Applegate's services on several occasions for civil matters and advice on the legality of other people's actions. As an engineer I don't just accept what I am told, initially I cross checked his information with other sources. What I found is that he is a very thorough, informed and pragmatic lawyer. He not only knows the law he also has the experience to know where a case is likely to end up. His advice was not always what I wanted to hear, but was actually the best advice. It wasn't the most lucrative way for him, but it was the best for me. When I have had questions about his advice he has had the knowledge to fill in the gaps in my understanding. When I did manage to find something he didn't immediately know he was able to provide answers very quickly. When I researched his history I found that he was a prosecutor before he started his own practice, so I expect this gives him an unusually thorough understanding of the judiciary. I carry his card at all times; it is good to know that, if I ever needed help from the criminal law side of his business, I can rely on him.
