Experience made as easy as possible

Alan got me the best possible outcome given the circumstances, which is what he said would happen. Communication was great from day 1. He handled every detail for me and put my mind at ease. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Alan has been very informative and conscientious right from the get-go. He has made sure that I have known what to expect during my DUI hearing and ARD placement every step of the way. He's followed through with me since then, helping me sort through the incredibly confusing Intoxalock installation p...rocess, and has continually checked in on me since then, sincerely expressing his concern for me and my well-being through all of this, and giving me his constant support.

Thank you very much, Mr. Ross!

Mr. Ross and I first spoke when he responded to my first call on a Sunday! He was responsive, and did his best to help put me at ease at a highly stressful time. And he followed through as responsively, and most effectively on my behalf, as offered, as planned, and as promised.

He is very thorough and knowledgeable. He knows how to fight for you. Hes a definite 10/10!

This was my 3rd shoplifting charge. I was very nervous about the whole process. I was so scared about doing jail time. Mr. Ross made me feel comfortable the very 1st time I spoke with him. I did consult with 1 other attorney before Mr. Ross and was told that it was very possible I was going to ha...ve to do time. By the time I spoke with Mr. Ross I was very upset. He was able to let me know that I would not have to do time. He told me what I needed to do. I’m sure he wanted to strangle me a few times because I would call him and leave messages because I would get myself worked up. I ended up with less probation than what he originally thought. I was amazing through the whole process. Thank you Mr. Ross for making this an easy situation to work through and I definitely will not be doing this again!

Professional, respectful, and generates satisfactory outcomes

Mr. Ross was very professional, communicating my case and its possibilities clearly. He respected me and provided great counsel throughout my case; the one in 06’ and the one in 2026. I am tremendously satisfied by my results and recommend Mr. Ross handle ALL case loads if they want to see similar r...esults.

  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
