Loyality

David Kramer has been my daughters’ Criminal Defense attorney for about a year. If you want an attorney that will genuinely take a personal interest on a level that matches the loyalty of a family member, hire David. He has been persistent and set up many meetings with law enforcement to help us ge...t through a very difficult time in our family. I cannot express enough the gratitude I feel about this person. You won’t regret having him represent you.

Kramer = Knowledgeable, Keen, Kind

I met with David Kramer regarding a case that was frightening, and stressful. He immediately put me at ease at his office. We discussed my case, free of charge for the consultation. I found him to be very professional, yet I could see he was caring, and a man of strong faith, which for me was also a ...comfort. Though of course he could make no promises about what my outcome would be, it was evident that he was knowledgeable about my type of case, and possessed a keen sense of what I could expect when I went before the Judge. I appreciated that, as I have met with previous attorneys that were so vague during the consultation, that I would leave feeling more confused than before I went in. At the end of my consultation, he was so kind to me, and offered some resources that I could use to help me before I went court. I hired him on the spot. When it came time to appear in court, I was overjoyed to learn that he was able to get my charges greatly reduced. I realized that this was because of relationships that he had forged with key people in that district court. Most importantly, the prosecutor and the judge. I also learned that after I left the courtroom, he went into the judges chambers and put in a good word for me with the judge, regarding my character and unique situation. I am more than happy with how things turned out for me, because things could have been much, much worse. I highly recommend David Kramer as an attorney, and will do so to anyone I know that needs an excellent criminal law attorney.

Very Good Lawyer

I am very grateful for David. When you have to deal with the legal system when you are new to this country and it can become overwhelming. David did his job very well and was very compassionate and supportive as well. The results were very pleasing. He instantly gave me first appointment even that t...oo on the long week end which make us feel more comfortable.He is very good in explaining the possible legal outcomes of the case and what needs to be done in order to face it confidently.He is reachable at any time.I surely recommend him for any criminal cases to all my friends.

Aggressive, honest attorney who will fight tooth and nail for your case

I, unfortunately, had to go through a painful divorce process. An elder at our church recommended me to David. After meeting with David, he wanted to help me through this process and ensure that me and my children's best interests were litigated. David did an amazing job, with integrity and and ag...gressive attitude to fight for my rights as a Father. We were able to work professionally with the other side and come to a workable agreement. In addition, David went above and beyond in counseling and assisting me with helping me to get back on my feet emotionally and spiritually. You will not find a better, more aggressive attorney to help you with your family or criminal law case.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"David is skilled, intelligent & hard-working. He is known for aggressively representing his clients and he consistently gets great results. Recently, we obtained a NOT GUILTY verdict for a man who was facing life in prison; got charges dismissed for a juvenile who was falsely accused of serious sexual assault charges, proved that our client was not guilty of the alleged serious violation of probation allegation, and stopped criminal charges from being issued by proving that our client was innocent."
