Christian L. Faiella

Gump, Faiella, & Bugalski, LLC

Chris Faiella is a leading American Midwest-based trial lawyer and author who helps people catastrophically injured by the negligent or reckless actions of others recover money damages. His multi-million dollar jury verdicts and settlements include high-profile victories against large corporations and soulless insurance giants that wrongfully deny claims.

Lawyers refer difficult high-stakes cases to Chris Faiella because of his reputation for zealous advocacy, as well as his team’s innovative legal preparation and in-depth factual investigation. Jurors justly reward his clients because he’s walked the accident scene, knows the family, learns the medical procedures, masters the law, and thus gives credible voice to clients’ pain and loss.

Chris’ positive outcomes include seriously injured student athletes, outdoor recreational activity injuries, death or catastrophic vehicle injuries, and cases brought against deceptive insurance companies.

Chris Faiella is a frequent speaker on sports/ recreation safety and insurance industry chicanery, an expert commentator for media outlets.
