Client
I was retaliated against for engaging in protected activity at work and then wrongfully terminated. It was a devastating and traumatic experience that demolished my confidence along with my finances. I interviewed another respected attorney prior to meeting with Jeff Rager, but as soon as I met Jeff I knew he was the right attorney--someone who would really fight to the end for me. From the filing of the lawsuit through the trial and post-trial, Jeff was committed to championing my case. Being wrongfully terminated was an intensely emotional experience. Jeff was completely and sincerely supportive and always there to reassure me. Every action he took evidenced his commitment and reminded me that we were a team going through the process together. Jeff seemed genuinely glad to answer my endless questions, and he made me feel like a top priority throughout the lengthy process. With respect to his professionalism, legal skill and expertise, I can't imagine any attorney doing a better job representing employees subjected to discrimination, harassment or retaliation. Jeff is a great negotiator and an outstanding trial attorney. In trial, he demonstrated he was 100% familiar with every detail of my experience, he worked day and night and he was able to identify the inconsistencies that ultimately impeached every opposing witness. In addition to his legal expertise, Jeff is also extremely intuitive, which was invaluable in jury selection and communication with the trial judge. There may be several attorneys who can mediate pre-trial settlements. But, when considering an attorney, it was important for me to have an attorney who was a good negotiator as well as a great trial attorney. Jeff is an excellent strategist and negotiator, and in my opinion a truly unsurpassed trial attorney. Further contributing to the positive experience, everyone in Jeff's office was knowledgeable, professional and very responsive. Jeff won my case and now I have closure on a very dark chapter. I highly recommend Jeff Rager and I will be eternally grateful for everything he did for me.
