Ron was forthright, informative and caring for my situation and my family. He spent over 3 months reviewing documents in preparation of my trial even working for me on the case while he was on a family vacation skiing in Colorado. Ron attended the trial every day of a co conspirator alongside me t...o evaluate the case first hand and to review how the government was presenting their case for preparation of ours. That trial went on for a week before it was sent to the jury who ended up convicting the Co-conspirator. Upon that conviction, Ron, my family, and I conferred on my options and decided it was in the best interest of my family to mitigate my situation by taking a plea to minimize my sentencing possibilities. That decision was the best I could make with Ron taking the lead to help me through the sentencing hearing and fortunately, I did not receive any jail time thanks to Ron and his efforts.

The best there is

Ron and his assistant B.J. are the most caring honest and hardworking individuals I've known and I'm 100% thankful to have them handle my case. When I went shopping for an attorney I knew after talking with Ron that he was going to be my guy. I was facing serious charges and mandatory jail time and R...on brought those charges down to a misdemeanor and no jail time! He picked apart the evidence and fought for me as if i was family. Ron never steered me wrong. I would highly recommend Ron for your criminal defense attorney.

Avvo Rating

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.
