Lifesaver

Helped me through a domestic charge I was wrongfully accused of. Mr. Kaess was always easily reached and answered all my questions, of which I had quite a few as this was my first time accused of anything. He also worked out a payment plan where if he hadn't, I wouldn't have been able to afford any h...elp yet made too much for a public defender. I highly recommend anyone to utilize his outstanding services.

Honest service with integrity

I can't say enough about Ryan! He taught me many years ago that court proceedings take time and steps, and as clients we want results right now. After he explained the process to me it lifted a lot of the anxiety and stress that comes along with the process. He's always been up front about our p...osition every time he has represented me, from DWIs, criminal matters as well as family matters. I was extremely happy with the success of every case he has taken care of for me. His results are a direct reflection of the case study he does for every client, since the laws are constantly changing so is his due diligence on every single case. He puts in the time and effort to represent each of his clients to the very best of his ability, on every case! If your looking for representation that's honest , and done with integrity Ryan is lawyer your looking for. He makes the process very easy.

Ryan Kaess

I paid alot of money for this lawyer only for him to admit he was ineffective and not doing his job. His communication was terrible at best and when he did answer he was short and condescending-I was never clear on where this case stood and almost seemed as if he was NOT on our side. Was a waste of... money and time and felt as if he did not care and was being bothered. Would of saved tons of money going with a public defender which is exactly what the co-defendant did and got out of jail and charges dismissed whereas in my sons case he sat in jail for a year and was basically forced into taking a deal. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE & FIND A LAWYER WHO CARES -not just wanting to take your money!

He has become my hero when I thought All was lost in my crimina...l issues, and I've always felt confident in his great knowledge of the legal system. I can truly call Ryan Kaess a fantastic Lawyer and friend.
