Excellent Service

As we know divorce can be an extremely difficult process, but hiring Mr. Kreshtool was one of the SMARTEST decisions I could have ever made. He is extremely knowledgeable, hardworking, responsive, patient and just an all around great attorney. He's definitely hands down one of the BEST lawyers in t...own. Having him on my team surely put me at ease knowing that he would get me the best results possible and that he did!

Professional, honest and responsive

I hired this attorney for a divorce case, during the process, he was honest with his answers and and gave all possible scenarios and was very responsive to all my questions. Great honest man and very professional.

Knowledgeable, proficient, and honest

Jeffrey Kreshtool assured me my hostile custody/child support case was straight forward and simple and he was correct. He stayed above the drama, tactfully focused on the facts and skillfully ensured my case was settled without going to court. He was respectful, responsive and kept me informed thro...ughout the process. He also kindly went out of his way to try to prevent my son from being dragged into the middle. From day one I felt confident and grateful I was being represented by a great lawyer. Also, the actual cost was slightly less than his estimate at our initial consultation.

We could not be happier!

We have used Jeff's services a few times now and could not be happier with his help each time. Jeff was highly effective in 2010 representing us for the first time in a custody matter, and with his knowledge, advice, and skill we gained more than we dreamed that we would in court. This time we call...ed Jeff with some questions on our 18 yr old moving in with us from her father's house. While it seemed a cut and dry situation, it was not. Jeff helped us every step on getting her enrolled in school in our county and I am so grateful for his help. He was quick to answer my urgent email plea and more than caring on the other end of the phone. I can not say enough good things about how much we appreciate him and what he has done for us. I would never even consider changing attorneys, and I am quick to refer anyone that I know to him for representation.

Best Attorney!

I used Mr. Kreshtool for my divorce, and custody. He really knew the court system, and helped me get through what might have been a "nasty" divorce. He returned all my calls within the same day the calls were placed, made suggestions in my best interest, and helped me to "keep it together" when I wa...s worried about the case. He gave me the best advice, that truly worked in my favor. Being a single parent, Mr. Kreshtool also set up a payment plan that really helped with the retainer fee, and court costs. I have and will continue to recommend him most highly.
