Ross was the best. For more than 1 case. He got me the best possible outcome and would return a call if needed on holidays. He really works for you.

Experience and skill
My cousin recommend an attorney who couldn't practice law in Kansas and that attorney recommended Ross, which was a great decision because Ross is diligent, intelligent and keeps you well informed.My case is still pending but when resolved I'll post an even better review! THANK you Ross!

This is the attorney to hire.
He is smart and aggressive. He was excellent at explaining my options and getting me the best possible result. He was honest and forthcoming, even with bad news. He did a great job for me and I will never forget it. I highly recommend him.
