I got pulled over and was given a whole stack of violations but, the most critical of these citations was a citation for a D.U.I. I heard about Mr. Kroovand from a friend of mine and, I am so thankful that I made the connection! Throughout the entire process he was incredibly professional, very pun...ctual ( I have personally never dealt with a lawyer that was on time! As a matter of fact, he was there more than an hour before court even started!) He was very kind and considerate to my wife and I both throughout the whole process, he really explained everything in such detail that there was no misunderstanding and the whole thing was handled and negotiated smoothly, quickly and absolutely to our satisfaction! We truly feel like he cared about our well being. Two court appearances, total time about one hour - No kidding! - Done! Driving again and all other citations gone... If you are reading this and need a great lawyer, do yourself a favor - give Phil a call... Besides all that, he is just a really cool guy!

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.
