Recognized Super Lawyers
The term "Super Criminal Defense Lawyers" has come to mean an attorney who has been voted by his or her peers as being one of the top 5% of all criminal defense lawyers for their abilities to apply the law to a given set of facts, their skills at trial and during pretrial motions and negotiations, and their knowledge of the law and the effects of the law on their clients. For many years before the founding of "Super Lawyers", the organization that surveys the legal community for nominees and awardees, Attorney Chris Van Wagner's clients, the local media, and even the national networks had recognized Chris' abilities to effect outcomes at trial, during plea bargains, and in each step along the judicial path. Moreover, they recognize the outcomes of his efforts - outcomes that change people's lives and often mean freedom, as opposed to incarceration into a federal or state prison. Indeed, Attorney Chris Van Wagner has been winning in courtrooms, in district attorneys' offices, and in the hearts of his clients for many decades.

Recognized Expert Advice
The term "expert legal advisor", coined by Wisconsin State Bar, has come to define all lawyers in the state of Wisconsin, but an appointment to the Board of Regents for the National College for DUI Defense signifies the highest level of knowledge about drunk driving laws and the defenses that can be used to overcome the tremendous impact of a drunk driving offense on a person's legal record, esoteric knowledge of those laws, and the highest level of understanding and knowledge about the elements of drunk driving law and the means by which to disprove the allegations. An appointment to the Board of Regents for the NCDD recognizes an attorney's superior knowledge of drunk driving law and because of that knowledge, she often consults with other drunk driving defense attorneys and lends her expertise at criminal defense and drunk driving defense seminars across the nation.
