A great attorney

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!!!

Frank D. Kress

I have been involved in a wc case with Mr. Kress for the past 7 years. The wc system is complicated at best with a "hurry up and wait" attitude which can be very frustrating for both client and attorney. My personal experience with Mr. Kress is that he is knowledgeable of the wc system, trustworth...y with confidential information and communicates progress on your case in a timely manner. I would highly recommend Mr. Kress in the practice of wc law.

I wish all lawyers were like Mr. Frank D. Kress

I want to write this review with true and honest feelings. Since Mr. Kress has handled my case 3 years ago, I have had nothing but stress free living. I was hurt on my job in 2011. Mr. Kress has taken great care of not only me but also my family. He has always made me feel that I am being well taken ...care of . Dealing with an employer and their insurance can be a nightmare. If I did not have Frank and I can call him Frank due to he is a true friend on my case, I would have been fired from my job and replaced. Frank has taken great time and effort in making sure I have been paid every week. Sure some times the insurance company likes to play games, but Frank was always on the phone with myself and the insurance company getting things in order. A friend had recommended Frank to me and I am sure glad I found an honest and hard working lawyer. I just want to say thanks and I would and will recommend Frank D. Kress to anyone who is in need of his services.

Run Dont Walk from Attorney Frank Kress !

He is awful and I wouldn't recommend him to file a claim for my dog. I caught him in lie after lie and got fed up with him. My advice is to run don't walk away from this guy. This is my opinion after hiring him. Do your own due diligence if you decide to hire him and good luck.

Stay away!

I have never felt so disrespected in my life. If you are looking to hire an attorney, STAY AWAY from Frank Kress. He is very unprofessional. He will speed you through your conversation, convince you to sign paperwork, and then vanish. No updates, avoids all phone calls and questions, and even has hi...s secretary screen calls to avoid his clients. This is not what attorneys are paid to do. Stay away from this one, he will only bring you additional stress.
