Got Great Results and Would Use Again

Great performer

Had a great phone conversation with the firm and having a face to face on Monday the 19th of December. Think he is my best bet for this case.

Posted by anonymous | September 5, 2016 | Consulted Attorney

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

No Help

Consultation was lacking in substance or legal advice. Extraordinary high attorney fees was required for legal representation concerning a questionable matter. Opted not to retain attorney or the firm.

Replied last September 6, 2016

First, this is not a review by a client, this appears to be a review by someone who claims to have had a consultation with our office and then chose not to retain our firm. Second, this appears to be a fraudulent review based on the lack of specifics and the fact that the reviewer chose to be anonymous. I would not be surprised if this was a review by a competitor or other saboteur hiding behind a veil of anonymity. Do not trust this review.

Competent & Compassionate Attorney

I have frequently sought legal advice (Divorce & Foreclosure) from Kramer Law Firm over the past few years. Just recently I contacted the office regarding a legal matter, and Steve Kramer personally took the time to speak with me regarding my options. Steve and his office staff has been quite at...tentive to my legal matter while keeping me informed throughout the process. When dealing with matters that involve the law, not only do you want a skilled knowledgeable attorney, you want someone you trust, and for me and my family that is attorney Steve Kramer.

Posted by Michelle | December 18, 2014

Solid advice on every issue I've called about

I've called Kramer Law Firm several times over the past few years for guidance on different issues. In all instances Steve has given me the various options for my situations so I can make an educated decision on what's the best for me and my life. Without a doubt they are a firm who can be trusted t...o provide solid advice and whatever options may be available. I'll continue to use them when I things arise where I need legal guidance.

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.
