Posted by Venkat Raghavendran | April 28, 2017 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Professional and effective

Mr. Roycroft gave me sane counsel and worked on getting me out of a lease agreement with a recalcitrant landlord and saved me a thousands of dollars. He crafted a cancellation of lease that preserved all my options to seek redress while releasing me from any future liabilities and obligation that cou...ld be brought by the landlord. Mr. Rycroft is an excellent attorney for all your real estate and tenant/landlord legal needs.

Very Satisfied

Bret Rycroft recently handled my 2nd DWI case and was able to get my case dismissed within a reasonable length of time. I informed Bret of the facts surrounding my arrest on the first day we met. Bret listened very carefully and based on what I told him, he advised me of what to expect from the Pros...ecution and what his strategy would be. When I left his office, I felt very relieved. The case proceeded very much how he advised me it would. I would definitely recommend Mr Rycroft to my friends and acquaintances.

Highly recommend Mr. Rycroft!!

Mr. Rycroft got my domestic violence case dismissed. He stuck to his guns with the prosecutors and would not accept any deals. I am grateful to him that he truly believed my story and made the prosecutor prove every fact they were holding against me.

Case Dismissed! Great Work!

Bret got my case dismissed. He was able to persuade the prosecutors to dismiss my case after presenting my perspective of what happened. I highly recommend his services to anyone in need of criminal representation. Thanks!

Kept me out of jail when cops claimed i was drunk with no proof!!

You should heir Bret! He was able to help me out in a BS DUI case!! The cops were discriminating against me obviously because they did not like my nice car. Bret took care of the issues for a great price and worked hard to make sure justice was properly served!

DUI and DWI lawyer | Jul 02

Relationship: Friend

"Bret is an outstanding criminal defense attorney. He has taken the time to learn about the procedure the police must follow when making a DWI stop and is very thorough in his investigation of his clients' cases. If the police have done something wrong or taken advantage of the system, Bret will find the discrepancy. Bret also takes the time to get to know his clients so they are not just another file on his desk. I highly recommend Bret for not just DWI cases but any criminal case."

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.
