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 Elisia | September 16, 2025 | Hired Attorney

Very knowledgeable, and kind.

Mr. Ross was there for me in one of the most difficult times in my life. He answered calls, texts and emails even outside of business hours. He got to know me and he genuinely wanted to see me be okay. He invested time and energy into my case. And got me home to my family.

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!

Trustworthy and Thorough – A Lawyer Who Gets Results

We recently worked with Kevin Ross to handle a traffic violation my son received, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the level of service and expertise. From the very beginning, Kevin was responsive, thorough, and clearly experienced in dealing with these types of cases. He quickly identified inco...nsistencies in the citation and proactively requested dashcam footage from the incident. Thanks to his diligence and attention to detail he was able to significantly reduce the ticket fee and help avoid further penalties. We are extremely grateful for his support and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a skilled and reliable criminal defense attorney.

Calm, cool and firm

Kevin is one of the best attorneys in Dallas hands-down. Don’t let his calm and mellow demeanor fool you. He has a way of surprising the opposing attorney in a methodical, firm way to drive his point home. I was beyond impressed and grateful for his zealous advocacy of me (and with the result I neede...d).

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.
