This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Best Attorney

Ron Jurgeson and staff are exceptional to deal with. I contracted with him regarding a non-fault accident and he is professional, informative and courteous.

Posted by Dan | July 27, 2015

Highly Recommended

I worked with Ron registering my divorce in Missouri from Kansas. He was very thorough and worked closely with me on virtually all aspects of my case. While other attorneys may have looked at this as a simple transfer case, Ron took my concerns seriously and delivered on everything he said that he wo...uld do with no prodding or reminding from me. He worked with opposing counsel and represented my interests at all time. I have since gone to Ron on other matters and he has always been quick to respond and provides thoughtful and relevant advice. I give my highest recommendation to Ron.

Excellent legal services

I hired Ron to take care of the probate estate for my late mother. He did a fantastic job, and the probate case was wrapped up successfully and quickly. Furthermore, he kept me informed about things as the case proceeded. To sum up: Ron is an attorney who is both highly competent and very personable.... I couldn't be happier with his services. I highly recommend him.

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.
