Attorney Christopher
Van Wagner has handled nearly one hundred felony trials in his
twenty-plus years as an attorney. His trial cases have ranged from low-level
offenses to kidnapping, homicide, and "domestic terrorism".
Chris has handled matters in rural and urban counties, not to mention
the hardened criminal courtrooms of Chicago, Illinois and Trenton, New
Jersey, winning cases he was expected to lose quickly.
Attorney Tracey Wood
won outright acquittal in a case that made the national headlines a few
years ago, when her client was cleared of any wrongdoing in a wide-ranging
and emboldened conspiracy scheme that actually stole missile launchers
and military tanks from the Ft. McCoy military base in northern Wisconsin.
All but one other defendant in that case went to federal prison for years.
In addition to this solid and successful trial history, Chris and Tracey
have also argued and won appeals to the state and federal courts.
