Senior Corporate Accounting - AT&T Corporation, Finance Department

I found Mr. Kraft and his entire firm to be of the highest quality and ethics in all matters related to the law and client relations. Mr. Kraft takes a personal interest in each case handled by his firm. He periodically checks each client's satisfaction with the firm and their case by personally visi...ting with clients and sending regular questionaires to clients asking them to rate their current satisfaction with the firm, their case and overall satisfaction with the legal representation at that particular moment. Mr. Kraft is a "hands on" owner / partner of his firm. I can not brag enough about the high ethical standards to which Mr. Kraft holds himself and that of his entire staff. Each time I had contact with the office I felt as if I were their only client, trating me like family as well as client. All of the staff seem to love their jobs. My case was active for 2 years prior to final resolution and I always spoke with the same receptionist when I called as well as the legal assistant assigned my case, and my personal attorney. My entire two year experience with the firm was unsurpassed in quality and confidence. I would use the firm again in a heartbeat and refer friends and family to the firm without the slightest hesitation.

The firm is relentless in its commitment to achieving justice on behalf of the victim and their families. Mr. Kraft is recognized by his peers as an exceptional attorney serving as Director Emeritus of the Dallas Trial Lawyers Association. He served as President of the North Dallas Bar Association and at this writing is a Director of that organization.

"I have known Bob Kraft for several years through an online legal discussion group and have sought his advice several times. Bob is incredibly knowlegeable yet modest. He has always brought considerable wisdom, common sense and perspective to the legal issues that we have discussed...as well as a good dose of humor. After thirty years of a successful practice, I am certain that Bob could easily rest on his laurels, but he is constantly improving himself and his firm, either incorporating new practice areas or mastering new types of technology to deliver the best possible service to his clients. Any lawyer or client would be fortunate to work with Bob or his firm and therefore, I endorse Bob without reservation."

"I endorse this lawyer. For the past few years, Bob and I have belonged to the same Attorney group and I’ve been to a number of lawyer seminars with him that involved multi-day round table meetings to help better serve our clients. Bob is very considerate and generous with his time and knowledge. He takes time to educate and looks after the big picture and long term goals in a way that is refreshing and very much appreciated. He's taken time to consult with me and I was left with a clear understanding that he put my interests above all while making sure we do the right thing. It's my pleasure to know and recommend Bob Kraft.."

"Bob Kraft was the first lawyer (and only one) that I told my own employee to call when she was involved in a serious accident in Dallas. Not only is Bob a great lawyer and the only Texas attorney that I would ever refer my own friends and family to, he's also an absolutely fantastic person. When you've been injured you need a lawyer who actually cares about you as a person, not just as a source a revenue. Bob is caring, compassionate, nice and just so happens to also be the best dang lawyer I know in Dallas. Don't even think about talking to another lawyer until you've called and spoken with Robert Kraft first!"

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.
