Frank Douglas Kress

Hired Frank for a workers comp case after my company’s insurance company denied further medical treatment. Frank was familiar with this company, their insurance company, and their tactics. Frank wasn’t afraid to go toe-to-toe with them while also getting our ducks in row to get my case prepared for a... jury trial. Ultimately, the company offered a settlement before it came to a jury trial and Frank pushed back again on the settlement offer and was able to secure a more favorable outcome. Would hire Frank again if I had to!

Well i hired this firm not just for one case but for 2 and both lawyers disappear when i need to talk to them or never answer my emails, calls or even return any of'm my cases are still going but I'm looking for a new attorney and fire this firm If I hired them was to get answers any time I need t...hem right? STAY AWAY FROM THIS FIRM

I want to post this review on the Services of Frank D. Kress with the Firm of Rubens and Kress in Chicago. I have been, for over the past four years, in a Workman's Compensation case in the state of Illinois. About one year ago Frank Kress worked with the defense in settling the first part of th...e case: The loss of income for the future. Even though I can't and won"t reveal the details of the settlement, Frank hammered out a deal with the defense for several thousand dollars more than even the Commission recommended. However, I must say the attorney for for the defense is a classy lady herself, she worked with my attorney in resolving the amazing settlement. My wife and I now live in central Kansas. On Monday, April 13, 2015, we drove to Urbana, Il. for a Workman's Compensation "trial" before a Commissioner for the State of Illinois. It was here that I got a first hand view of Mr. Kress and his legal skills. We did not see what went on behind the scenes in the first phase of the settlement, we were able to see what skills are "necessary" in the second phase of the settlement process of the medical benefits. The old saying "only a fool represents himself in court" is certainly true in this situation. This trial was about coordination of benefits between Federal Medicare and State of Illinois Workman's Compensation. I learned, my case is a rather rare situation, and that being the case, knowledge of both sides of the issue were and are vitally important. I couldn't have done it myself, being an old beat up retired truck driver. Any professional in this area of Workman's Comp law could not have done it any better. Frank demonstrates his "finger tip" knowledge of the law in this case. Working in a Federal Medicare level situation, you had better know the law or the situation it self will bury you. This is absolutely critical. Mr. Kress worked masterfully with the Commissioner and the attorney for the defense in trying to get a final resolve on this situation. Frank demonstrates his "total" skills in this area of expertise. This is not a phoney review for Frank Kress. I wish there were some way for you to get hold of me to prove it. You will, bar none, not be able to find a better attorney to work for you. His professional dress, mannerisms, facial expressions, carriage, skills, knowledge, application of law, ad infinitum are superior. Whether it be personal injury or Workman's Compensation law, you will need someone that has the skills that are vital to resolving your case. If you have a good or fair case, do not be afraid to trust your case to just anyone. It could cost you dearly. Mr. Kress is not an ambulance chasing..shyster type attorney. Mr. Kress has my permission to share my phone number to share with anyone who would ask (24/7) in an effort to prove the validity of this post. Mr. Kress humbled me into the ground and I am so thankful for what he has done for my family. Most sincerely AEW

1/19/2015 Mr. Kress is an honest competent attorney, he is very informative and does his job with the up most integrity. He seems to genuinely care about how you have been affected with your injury and been treated by your employer. He has on many occasions called me just to see how I was doing tha...t day...that shows he really cares. Anytime I called him and left a message he was very prompt with getting back with me. Anytime workman's comp was not paying my TTD or any of my bills he was right on it making sure it got done. I could not ask for a better attorney and I will definitely recommend him to anyone that needs an attorney!!!

Today is Jan, 14th 2015. I hired Frank Kress in Dec. 2013 for a work comp case. I was skeptical about hiring a lawyer from Chicago when I am located in southern Illinois: concerned about communication issues, etc... Mr. Frank Kress proved that I made a good choice hiring him. Frank is an excellent la...wyer!! Frank was in communication with me throughout my entire case; keeping me informed on ever level. Frank was very professional and showed much concern about me as a person and my health. Frank was very knowledgeable and was able to answer ALL my questions immediately; not having to "get back to you". In my opinion, Franks experience, high level of work standards, persistence, and extreme knowledge of the law got me the great settlement award I received. I AM EXTREMELY PLEASED WITH MR. FRANK KRESS and I recommend him as a lawyer.
