Maybe He Should Have Ask More

I hired Him to represent me super last minute and I was previously in court for the divorce and custody battle for 6 prior years almost every other time with NO council, I liked his game plan but after talking to other lawyers he never asked me what has been going on, or what my ex had claimed or don...e in prior 6 years. We Lost, Big Time

Drops the ball multiple times

Crops is well experienced so everyone in family court knows him. Judges respect that so he gets away with with a lot. Family court is overwhelmed so they let him slide just to push through cases. Very poor court system the Judges do their best. Cripps should be avoided.

Amazing at what he does!!!

He helped me thru my divorce every step of the way. Even though it took several years he never backed down even when things got nasty with my ex’s several different lawyers. His expertise and confidence helped me gain the confidence I needed to ensure what I was doing was right. He never steered me w...rong and I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs help thru this trying time!

A great attorney that became a great friend.

Mr Cripps went beyond his scope of getting the best deal possible- even when it came to the emotional strain of a family that felt the collateral damage of a divorce. His knowledge and experience was a comforting throughout the entire process. If I had to do this again , I would not hestitate to ...call him first. Not only he’s a great at being a lawyer, he was also considered an understanding friend. I highly recommend him.
