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.

Posted by anonymous | May 06, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Best criminal defense attorney in Dallas!

From the first consultation until Mr. Ross finished my case, I was very impressed. Mr. Ross was very knowledgeable about the law surrounding my case, and he was able to provide a better outcome than I even expected. I have referred Mr. Ross to multiple friends, and he has never let me down. Highly ...recommended!!

Exceptional Counsel

I could not have asked for a better guide through the criminal justice system. Mr. Ross was confident, exceptionally skilled and provided excellent support and guidance through our entire ordeal. We came out with a very fair solution to a thirty issue, due to Mr. Ross' skill and patience. I highly r...ecommend that if you need representation on a criminal issue in North Texas Mr. Ross is your ally.

Posted by Ryan | August 23, 2017 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Always successful!

Kevin has helped me several times with DWI/DWLS issues that were pretty complicated. In every case we have recieved an even better outcome than we thought was possible. He is the best.

Posted by Marc | January 26, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Employment & Labor

Recommend

Hired to represent me with my payroll packet. Mr. Ross was very informative when he came to discuss my case and possibilities of making payroll. I would recommend Mr. Ross to anyone who is needing a strong attorney who is upfront and honest.

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.
