Wish I had hired him sooner!

I originally met with Craig for a free consultation. He immediately gave me confidence in my case and put my mind at ease. A case that had lasted for over a year with no end in sight was quickly moving in the right direction after hiring him, and resolved months later. Very thankful for Craig and his... team and would recommend him in a heartbeat.

Find yourself a good lawyer-not Craig

I mistakingly hired Craig to represent me in my marriage dissolution. His whole 'I wrote a book about keeping lawyer fees down' is a joke. There was very little movement with my case for 4 months but he kept collecting money from me. Very seldom would I get a direct answer from him. His explanation f...or what to expect next or what my next step should be was never clear. He kept using the phrase 'shoot for the moon' even though I was telling him I didn't want to draw this out or soak my soon-to-be ex for all he has but he wouldnt listen to that. He knew exactly how unhappy I was with his lack of follow through. If separating from your spouse and filing for divorce isn't chaotic enough, having a lawyer like him made things 10x worse for me. I would never recommend him to anyone. Please do yourself a favor, shop around, take advantage of the free consultations that most lawyers offer and stay away from Craig Kallen. I spent 45 minutes with my new lawyer and accomplished more that I did with Craig in 4 months.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse Craig Kallen. My experience with Craig has been that he is uniformly well-prepared, reasonable to deal with, capable, and reliable in his interactions with opposing counsel. When Craig tells me something, I rely on his word. This trait is not uniformly the case with other lawyers in this field, resulting in waste of time, and client money, in handling Family Law matters, in particular."

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.
