Highly recommended

Alan was able to work with the police officer involved in my daughter’s case to get the best possible outcome for her. I wouldn’t want anyone else to represent someone in my family.

Best Possible Outcome

I was facing two misdemeanor drug charges when I called Alan. With his help and expertise, he was able to knock those charges down to a summary offense. I plead guilty to disorderly conduct and paid a fine. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone, and am very grateful that I hired him for the j...ob.

DUI related charges

I have had one or two experiences with dealing with attorneys and have you ever had the feeling of them looking down their nose at you? Alan not only made me feel like a human but as a friend that was battling with me against a mistake I made as a human. This was a misdemeanor offense where I was loo...king at definte time in jail. With Alan's experience and willingness to work for me we perservered with getting a fine and some probation. I'm very appreciative of the personal interest Alan took in making a difference for me! Thank you!

Extremely Knowledgeable

I plead guilty to one summary offense and paid a fine. He is professional and treats you with respect. Instead of finding myself overwhelmed and worried, he took the time to discuss my situation and provide best solution.

Worth every penny!

I contacted Mr. Ross after being charged with two misdemeanor drug charges. I faced losing my license along with probation, community service etc. In the end, I plead guilty to one summary offense and paid a fine. He is professional and treats you with respect. You would be wasting your time and mone...y to go anywhere else!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • 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.
