Best attorney and only attorney ill ever use !!!

Jacqueline Kriebel is a class act . She handled a " street racing " case of mine where she was very knowledgable , went over and beyond my expectations . Very trust worthy which is the most important part for me . She got my case dismissed in no time . I still refer people to her till this day and wi...ll continue to as long as I'm around . Thank you Jackie for everything you do!! You're truly a blessing !!!!

Replied last June 25, 2013

You are quite welcome! This was a case where we were trying to have the racing statute declared unconstitutional. Fortunately for the client, his case was dismissed on speedy trial grounds but that also ended our quest to get rid of the law entirely. But it was a fun battle and I am happy we resolve this case in your favor. And thank you for all your referrals!

Posted by Theresa | June 21, 2013 | Education

Satisfied To The Maximum Level

Jacqueline Kriebel represented me in my darkest hour a short time ago. She is a strong and an aggressive attorney that represents many different types of cases. Mine was an administrative case within a very large school district here in Texas. She was extremely knowledgeable of the law, she was brute...ly honest, and she was very fair. Jacqueline took care of my situation within the parameters of what the law would allow her to do. She was never unjust but was always trustworthy. She was able to win my case because she was aggressive and because she was experienced and knowledgeable of the law. I have since referred her to 4 familly members and friends inwhich she successfully represented their particular case. These members include my sister in law, my husband, and a good friend of mine who is going through a nasty divorce. I also referred her to a friend of mine at work who is a Licensed School Psychologist who was going through a personal matter with an ex and the school district that she works for. I would not refer her to so many close family and friends if I did not trust that she could do the same job that she successfully did for me, in my darkest hour. She saved my job, she saved my family, and she saved my life as an educator. There is no question that she was God sent, no question. I thank God for her and we need attornies like her representing people like us who have made a mistake and we want to make it right, or people who are wrongfully accused of the unthinkable. I highly recommend her to anyone needing legal representation in Education, DUI, DWI, Child Support, Divorce, and Criminal. She is very aggessive and Jacqueline Kriebel can get the job done. She will fight for you and you will come out in a better place. She did this for me, she will do it for you.

Just Hired...Already Grateful!

I met with Ms. Kriebel this morning and I can honestly say my worries have been lifted to an extent I did not expect. I have been in the middle of a separation for almost 2 years, after being married for close to 23 years...24 in September. I have talked with multiple lawyers over that time knowing t...hat it just didn't feel right in each case for one reason or another. Consistently waiting to "know without a doubt" when it was time to hire and when I had met "the right one". When I left her office this morning I decided I needed to acknowledge the level of comfort and support I received from her. No better way than to start complimenting her from the beginning and I will follow up at the end as well...that is a promise. I am now clear that I waited this long to hire because she is the exact lawyer I have needed in order to resolve my 23 year marriage. Grateful that I feel she is already guiding me in the proper direction and allowing me the opportunity to finally feel secure in my decision making process. I look forward to putting my trust and struggles in the hands of this woman. Thank you....for finally allowing me a sense of peace when approaching one of the hardest things I'm sure I (or my son) will ever have to go through. You are a good woman...no doubt about it!

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.
