Perseverance

I have known Mr Kruse for about 18 years now . He has represented me in the most professional manner, his ethics are of the highest standards. His friendship, courtesy ,knowledge and honesty have become very important to me during the last three years as he represented me with medical malpractice. I ...have had Mr. Kruse as my attorney with all my business matters and in my will and estate advice. I have recommended him to a friend who has been pleased with his services in Legal cases. I will continue to hire,consult with Edward Kruse in any and all my legal needs.

T-Boned in a 4 day old car

Ed was very helpful. My daughter and I were T-boned at a light and Ed took care of everything. I did not have to worry about the bills or how I was going to pay my bills. He is exceptional in every aspect. Thank you for taking the time to explain things and keeping us updated on all the information... we asked about.

Top Tier Attorney

In November of 2015, I was driving through an intersection when violently stuck by another vehicle. After being referred to Ed by a trusted family friend, who is also an attorney, I knew I was in good hands. This was reiterated after my initial meeting with Ed and his team. He made sure I was gettin...g the appropriate medical treatments, gave me an idea of the process that we would be going through over the next few months, and then continuously followed up with me to provide updates, but also in regard to my treatments and well-being. Ed has my full confidence and I would not hesitate to work with him again.

Highly Recommend

Mr. Kruse and his staff were outstanding in handling my case. This was not a typical situation , yet, the result for me could not have been better. Mr. Kruse was up front on the possible outcomes that I was facing, and what he could do to alleviate my situation. He, and his office, displayed the up...most integrity and professionalism that I desired, kept me informed, and delivered the outcome I, we, desired. I recommend Mr. Kruse without hesitation and/or reservation.
