Naros Law Saved My Business

My business was one of the many destroyed and looted during the Lake Street riots. I found myself having to deal the aftermath of such a devastating situation I never in my life expected to have to deal with. I knew I needed to find an experienced professional to make sure I came out of it ok. Kris N...aros stepped right up to help me navigate through the complex insurance claim process, making sure I got every penny of coverage available, explained everything to me in a prompt and understandable manner and showed true care and compassion throughout the process, helping me and my business get rebuilt and back on track quickly. I am so great full for everything they have done for me and my business. I highly recommend Kris Naros and Naros Law - they are the best!

Serious Speeding Violation, Case Dismissed

In spring of 2013 I received a speeding ticket from Edina Police for going 15-20 over in a 35 zone. I contacted Kristen after hearing she was one of the best in the Midwest for criminal cases and traffic related offenses. We both appeared to Edina court and the DA completely threw out the case once h...e saw who was representing me. Needless to say, I am still in shock to this very day. Hire Kris Naros if you need the most favorable outcome, she knows how to get the job done and she fights hard for her clients.

A lady among ladies and gentlemen; a superb attorney who is a "legal surgeon".

I hired Kris Naros for legal representation regarding an offense that occurred in my building (?!), I had no prior convictions. One is nervous dealing with the - shall I say - "legal" system vs. "justice" system being so fresh to it, so to speak. What I realized is when if someone would be after yo...u in civil court or in a criminal court you need good legal representation. Kris is outstanding. At first I was wondering being male what a female attorney is like. Well, Kris Naros was probably at the top of her law class, people stiffen-up when they see her, they probably know she's not taking slip-&-fall lawsuits, she phone calls you and you feel valued. She's reminds me in my career of physical products I have represented - not cheap or overpriced, of very high quality and value. Except Kris is not an inanimate product - she's a great person and probably a formidable, terrible opponent to square off against. Great work. If your opponent is foolish to make an error Kris will surgically destroy them, metaphorically speaking.

Kris Narros - Auto Injury Case - Care first, case second

I engaged Kris Naros to assist in handling an auto accident claim from October 2011. I had just recently recovered from back surgery and the accident in which I was rear-ended on the freeway during rush hour traffic immediately brought back similar and new symptoms of numbness, pain, and weakness. ...This was worse than prior to my first surgery. From the thorough consultation in her office, recommendations of expert chiropractic, physical therapy and neurosurgeon practitioners, to the handling of my claims against the driver's insurance and my own insurance company, Kris was with me the entire way. Kris was an excellent advocate fighting first for the best possible care, ensuring I was feeling as best as I could in addition to pursuing the fullest extent of the insurance benefits I was entitled to. Kris handled the insurance companies and stopped them from attempting to influence me, from soliciting statements and from limiting the care I desperately needed. Kris guided me step by step through the settlement process after a second surgery and long-term affects were still causing problems for me. Kris partnered with my care team and made the process as straightforward as possible. I have recommended Kris to a number of friends and relatives based upon her performance and delivery throughout my ordeal.

It's good to have Kris in your corner

Kris was an awesome find. She was very knowledgeable and led me through the process during the first arrest of my life. She is very connected in the legal system which helped move things along smoothly. As nervous as I was, she helped calm me through the proceedings. Due to her connections and ta...ctful approach my charges were reduced and will be expunged. I would highly recommend Kris to anyone without hesitation.
