Excellent Attorney-Alan M. Ross

Attorney Ross was professional, knowledgeable and confident from the very start. I called him out of the blue for some trouble I found myself in after a concert. He not only answered on the first ring, but was reassuring and calming to me. He explained what would happen and what the goals were from t...he very start. He was able to take a situation that involved multiple charges, including possession, and resisting arrest, and with his expert approach, had everything reduced to the lowest and best possible outcome. Alan Ross completely delivered for me in every way. He helped resolve one of the worst situations of my life. I will recommend him for the rest of time. Again, a great man and even better attorney!

Simply the best

Alan was great! He believed in me and fought with everything in him. Plus he was knowledgeable about the law, and broke everything down for me to understand. I loved that he was available and if not got right back to me. I felt safe with him handling my legal matter.

Positive Experience

After going through two previous attorneys to represent my son on a PWID charge, I contacted Alan Ross to take my son's case. At this point I was extremely upset and discouraged with legal representation. Thank goodness for Attorney Ross who genuinely cared about my son. Attorney Ross gave me hope. H...e answered my calls, often on the first ring, and took time to explain the legal process. He is an excellent communicator and very knowledgeable. As a result of Attorney Ross's diligence, the Felony Possession with Intent to Deliver a Controlled Substance was reduced to Possession of a Small Amount of Marijuana.

Great Attorney!

Very professional! Explained how the case would go, and followed through exactly how he said. Responded in a timely manner and was very informative of any questions I had. Definitely recommend!

  • 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.
