This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Matthew made a bad situation MUCH better.

I struggled with alcohol for many years. I have since gotten healthy and am currently working as a Federal Agent. I would have never been hired with my record had it not been for the legal help provided by Mr. Krische. I had the unfortunate experience of working with other lawyers in previous cases. ...Matt was different-he seemed to truly care. Also, when it came time for court it was obvious he was “at home.” Thank you sir!

Mathew got my life back

Mathew stayed on top of the case. Was very detail oriented with the law. I had serious felony charges that he made all disappear. He got my life back! 3 years of worrying went to the best day of my life after a not guilty verdict!

Professional and methodical

I had a potentially serious issue with the law. After consulting with an attorney friend of mine and interviewing 3 additional firms I settled on Krische & Moertel. They seemed to have the experience and a plan for going at my case. Matthew did a great job from the get go. In the end they got the... job done and exceeded my expectations. Their staff is professional and good at what they do.

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.
