Kevin Ross will know more about the case than the other Lawyer

Mr Ross’s knowledge of my case and ability to apply the law with how he explained and directed me toward options was exactly what I needed.

Kevin was a Steady Support Every Step of the Way

I had a very serious charge pending for a little over two years and Kevin was reliable and knowledgeable every step of the way and we were able to walk away with an outcome that will allow me to not only make better decisions for the future but that showed me there was someone to advocate for me thro...ugh this whole process. Best thing I can do to ensure his efforts don't go in vain is to learn from this and continue to make the best decisions for myself in the future. He was great Thank you!

Contact Kevin Ross if you want an exceptional lawyer and experience.

Simply said, Kevin is a true professional. He asked all the pertinent questions, carefully listened and in no time consulted me not only what to do but as importantly explained the “why”. Very grateful for Kevin’s work.

Quality Representation with Commitment to Winning my Case in a False Sexual Assault Accusation

I hired Kevin and Tiffany to represent me in a sexual assault case accusation in Austin, TX that put my life on hold, with the risk of destroying everything I had worked so hard for. During the pretrial phase, they kept me informed and worked with me to look at every angle of this case to try to get ...a positive outcome to my case. They were committed to my case and knew my case better than I would have expect them to. I was surprised during the trial, my lawyers knew the case, facts, inconsistencies, the witnesses better than anyone in that courtroom. One could tell Tiffany and Kevin had been studying this case and were prepared to win. They did not leave anything for chances. Unfortunately, even though as time went by and the DA learned more about the case and it became more clear the accuser was lying, he was not willing to drop the charges. Kevin and Tiffany did everything they could with multiple trips to Austin, but no offer was acceptable to me. It was the most scary time of my life. I was facing up to 40 years, which meant I could lose everything in my life. I listened to their recommendations and put my life on their hands, taking my case to trial. While I was still in college in 2015, a handful of classmates and I went to a bar, and when the night was over one classmate and I went to my apartment. At the time we were both in other relationships and didn't want anyone to know about the situation. After the affair in my apartment, I took her to her boyfriend's apartment and went on to sleep. Everything seemed normal. A few days later I heard from others that she had been making up stories, but I didn't know exactly what and did not worry much since I had not done anything legally wrong. Fast-forward 2 years and I got arrested over whatever false accusation she had made. Her story had things that did not make sense, but that did not make the investigators stop and question her. Her statement strictly made me face these charges. If I ever was to be asked about a great lawyer that is going to work hard to win a case and knows the law, I will undoubtedly recommend Kevin and Tiffany. They know what they are doing and I can say that they will work hard to win a case, not leaving room for a surprise. Even my family was amazed at the way they were prepared in the courtroom and how much knowledge they had to defend my case. They really went the extra mile to win and DID.

The best Criminal Defense Attorney

During my first experience with the federal court system Mr. Ross was both kind and thorough throughout the process. From beginning to the end of my case he made himself available for any questions, and concerns that I had at all times. I felt prepared for everything that happened throughout the pro...cess. Mr. Ross guided me through this experience and made sure that I was comfortable with everything that happened.
