FL Driver - AL Speeding Ticket
I live in FL, have a FL drivers license and was clocked at 72 in a 55 in AL. At the time, I was working 100 hours a week, had relatives coming to stay at the house, had a plumbing leak, and was on my way back to the house with the part. I was stressed and just not paying attention to the speedomete...

Excellent representation by Joseph C Kreps
I was traveling thru Alabama and received a speeding ticket around 6am on a weekend in a small town where the speed limit went from 55 down to 35 with absolutely no warning in the dark around a curve. I hit the brakes immediately but there was a police officer waiting right there. It was certainly so...

Excellent Representation
I had a great experience with the Kreps Law Firm. If there is such a thing as a "full service" attorney, the Kreps Law Firm is it. They listened to my case and fully understood the details from the beginning. We corresponded by email and phone because I'm from another state and they made it as conven...

Mr Kreps exceeded my expectations
I was charged with reckless endangerment and attempting to elude and looked for a lawyer that seemed to be knowledgeable in traffic violations. I found Kreps Lawfirm on the internet and even though they are not in my city, the communication was always prompt and courteous between Mr. Kreps' staff an...

Slow
At first I had trouble getting answers about my case, and the office staff was very rude. They would not let me talkto my representative because there were “no new developments” in my case. 60 days went by without hearing from my lawyer and every time I called to ask they simply said they would let m...
Joseph Kreps
Replied last October 23, 2018Thank you so much for your comments! We appreciate any and all feedback because it helps us grow and get better and better at what we do! Rest assured that everyone in our office is trained and reminded that we treat our clients the way we want to be treated and like family - we will definitely be addressing this with our team so this does not happen again. Sometimes the legal system can be slow and many times that is out of our control. As you mentioned, once things began to move on your case we were all over it and it sounds like we got you a great result which is always our main goal for each and every client. We can always do better keeping in touch with clients and updating them and our entire team will be in a meeting with me so that we address each and every point that you raise in your review. It might have seemed like we were too busy but that is certainly not the case - we make time for each and every client to discuss issues once cases begin to move and we are available by phone (you can call in or use the client link to schedule a call with us), text message, livechat, email, etc. Each and every single case and client that we handle is significant to us and we are so sorry that it seemed to you like yours was insignificant - that is not acceptable on our end and we will work hard to correct the issue and get better each and every day. Thank you for the comments about our lawyers - this is not just a job for us - it is a calling - a mission imprinted on our hearts and souls to relieve human suffering and we strive to do that every single day with every single breath we take. We will take the steps necessary to make sure that each and every person on our team is client focused and that our firm is client driven. Without our clients, we are nothing and we love each and every single person we are called to represent - including you. Please call us if you would like to discuss this with me directly. Thank you again for your comments - good, bad or indifferent, this is how we get better and learn. Even with 15+ years experience and 13,000+ charges resolved, we know that we can always learn and always get better. Very glad that we achieved the result you desired on your case. Joseph C. Kreps, KREPS LAW FIRM, LLC, Alabama Statewide Defense Lawyer
