Testimonials

 While the question of pursuing a lawsuit for my father’s wrongful death was being debated by my family, I was vehemently opposed. Not because I believed there was no wrong doing; I strongly felt there was. I was opposed because I knew my father’s life would be demeaned, that a long trial would be emotionally draining, and I cynically felt that a blue collar family like mine could never receive true justice.

Once I was outvoted, I fully supported my family’s decision. We knew from the onset it was a long shot. We also believed that any award we might receive would be minimal and barely cover expenses. We truly did this out of principle and never for money. That is why I was so strongly opposed to taking a settlement. Win, lose or draw, I believe we needed to see this through.

You are the one who took a real gamble on my family. It was you who put in all the hard work, study, research, time and effort knowing you were probably working for nothing. And yet, you prosecuted this case as if we had paid you millions. There was a guardian angel watching over my family the day you agreed to represent us.

You spoke eloquently about my father and resurrected him as a man of great value in all ways other than financial. You painted a picture of a very special and honorable man and now there is a legal, public record of his character and the legacy he left behind. That is more than we could have hoped for, and we really need from this litigation; winning the appeal will just be icing on the cake.

I am sure you have had and will continue to have many cases much more prestigious than ours, but I can guarantee you this; you will never have a more appreciative or thankful client than us. You have given us a great gift, something we will cherish forever and tell to your children and their children, and their children’s children. There is no way to thank you for that. God Bless.


Dearest Mr. Meagher, words can not express how grateful we are to you and your staff, for all of the very hard work that you put into our son’s case.  We always believed in you.  Thank you for winning us the justice our son and our family deserved.


We wish to express our heartfelt thanks to you for all that you accomplished on our behalf.  It is obvious that your integrity and standards are an integral part of your personal life and professional career.  This is truly appreciated!  Thank you again.


Congratulations on your recent great verdict – Pop has to be very proud.


Your summation, from the moment you started, evoked the emotion of the case, re-directed everyone’s attention to what you were saying and properly reflected the gravity of the injury. You were the consummate trial lawyer setting the tone of the case; not reacting to what your adversary said, but from what you wanted the jury to hear. You controlled the Courtroom as you spoke, you set the mood, you focused the jury to the salient facts of a difficult liability case, humbled yourself and made them feel what it was like to be your disabled client. You explained things in a rational commonsensical way, at the same time that you embraced your client’s weaknesses, thereby “thunder-striking” whatever blow they could inflict and bolstering your own credibility.

To say that you should be proud of your achievement is an understatement. You deserve every accolade from your brother attorneys and the Plaintiff’s bar.


Because your kindness and genuine caring shows through and through, I know [he] believes that we will all be in good hands.  Thank you for your support and friendship and for coming to the funeral home.  I’m so glad you got to meet my children, [his] greatest gifts to me and I know now you will protect them too.  Thank you again Chris from the bottom of my heart.


It was extremely difficult to find a lawyer that was willing to take on this lawsuit and my family was abundantly blessed when attorney Christopher Meagher, of Meagher & Meagher (pronounced Marr) agreed to take our case.  It was a typical David vs. Goliath scenario and Mr. Meagher agreed to represent us knowing full well there was a good chance he would not be compensated for his efforts.  He treated my family with the utmost respect.  He is that rare bread of attorney that believes in justice, expounds patriotism and fights the good fight because it is the right thing to do.  If lawyers were artists, Chris Meagher would be Rembrandt.


My mother’s death was painful for all of us.  For months, I tried to avoid thinking about it and the circumstances surrounding it.  However, time does heal wounds; and memories fade-but never the memory of your extraordinary courtesy and kindness to me.

And so-I thank you once again for your skill, and your empathy, and your generosity.  I will never forget.


I had no idea at the time this case was first presented to you that I would be sitting here now writing this letter.  After listening to our story you took on our case knowing it was not going to be an easy road ahead.  Thank you for believing in our case, we could not have gotten this far without Meagher and Meagher behind us.  I cannot find any words great enough to express our gratitude to you for helping us.

The level of care we received from you and your firm was extraordinary.  Every step of the way, you showed unlimited dedication to our case.  You always had [our son's] best interests at heart no matter what we were faced with.  As far as we are concerned, you went above and beyond what was expected.  Even during the most challenging moments you maintained professionalism and an exorbitant amount of patience.  The ongoing efforts from you and your firm got us through the trial. 

The time and effort that was shown by you and your staff was unlimited and deeply appreciated.  Our family is very blessed to have had the honor of having your firm represent our son; we thank you for everything that you have done.  The first time [he] met you, he threw his arms around you as though he was waiting a lifetime for you.  Maybe you were his angel. 

Your determination, exceptional knowledge, expertise, dedication and an incredible staff advocated for our son against insurmountable odds and won!  The Meagher and Meagher Firm have made a huge difference in our son’s life and our family is forever thankful.


I just wanted to congratulate you on a hard fought bottle and a great victory.  You are the true embodiment of a gentleman and a scholar.  And a fantastic litigator.


Just wanted to send you a brief note. Both I and the family are extremely satisfied with and thankful for the excellent result you obtained in that difficult case.

As you know, your firm remains the first and primary firm that I contact with any potential medical malpractice case or other significant case that I would not feel comfortable handling for whatever the reason.

I thank you for your continuing efforts on behalf of our respective firms and our mutual clients.


Please accept my thanks and professional admiration for a great fight.  Your efforts resulted in recovery despite a confusing verdict.  I look forward to referring many more cases in the future.


I really want to thank you.  I know my case was hard to pull but you were a tremendous help.

I will never forget everything you’ve done.  My family and I wanted to thank you.  God will bless you in many ways!


Sorry I took so long to write to thank you for the excellent job with the case and we are all very pleased with the result.

Once again I thank you for your assistance in this matter and I thank you for the excellent job you did. As I have said in the past, you are the first attorney that I speak with when I am looking for someone to refer a case to.


Well we missed Christmas, New Year’s, Chinese New Year and even your birthday!  So this will be an all-purpose wish for blessings in 2011!

It bears repeating – you changed my life, Christopher, you and your wonderful team.  [We] will always be grateful.  And we really do miss you. 


Congrats on your two outstanding results in Westchester as recently reported.  You have helped us all as we negotiate our cases.
