The BEST decision we made!!

100000000 STARS!!! This is long one but worth it! Ryan Kreck was/is the attorney on my husband’s cases, and we could not be happier with the services HANDS DOWN!!! I reached out to Ryan in complete and total despair, literally BEGGING for someone to listen to our story and adequately represent him as... he was literally looking at losing his life to the system over some false accusations. We were just as desperate as it could be as not only was he looking to lose his life to the system, but the whole family also stood to lose him, including all his babies. We had already spent our entire savings and plus some on two different lawyers who did nothing when I FINALLY found Ryan’s profile and reviews and just KNEW he was who we NEEDED. I reached out immediately begging for him to just please read our story, he DID, and reached out me and within MINUTES of just talking to me already made an appearance in the court room our case was in and already had talked to the bailiff and courts about resetting possibly as he was POTENTIALLY going to be on the case!! He did this WITHOUT even being paid because he saw the potential and heard my cries for help! He met me and the family almost immediately, we secured him, and he was already working on the case and in touch with everyone that needed to be. He never ONCE doubted us or treated us less than anything or anyone. The professionalism, expertise, knowledge, and personal attention that was put into us and our cases goes completely unmatched. He went above and beyond my expectations in every single way! The second I got off the phone with Ryan the very first time we even talked was the first time in almost 7 months that I was able to even sit back and take a breath of reassurance and sit back knowing we had the best chance possible at showing what really happened and fighting for our life back. Even through the entire TRIAL phase, we were nervous but at ease at the same time, due to the peace of mind we had with Ryan there. Due to all the efforts, we were able to successfully beat one case at hand, and we are now in the process of resolving the remaining issues. Myself, our family, and especially my husband would HIGHLY recommend Ryan and his team to help anyone take care of any of their criminal matters no matter what the charge. There is nothing better than the peace of mind knowing someone is on your side to help shed light and fight for you, when now a days its not innocent until proven guilty, too many people now make it “guilty until proven innocent”. Having our loved one back home with us, especially just in time for the holidays has been the best feeling in the world, especially seeing our babies’ faces when we got to surprise them with their daddy. Priceless! Thank you, from the absolute bottom of our hearts, Ryan for everything you have done and continue doing for my husband and our family. May God bless you in every which way possible!
