Review Ryan Krebs

Daughter passed away

Posted by StevenSun Sep 03 2017

My daughter passed away at birth 1998 and we hired Ryan as our lawyer. We were told by Ryan we needed to file a paper to show we were serious. Less than a month later he called with news hospital was ready to settle.He also informed us that his fee was 40% plus expenses, I told him it was 33% unless we went to court' He informed me because we filed that the paper he claimed was needed it was 40%. I told him I did not care if we ever settled that he misled us Just then phone started beeping because it was running out of batteries.Ryan was concerned I was taping him.I told him what do have to worry about. Then I told him the reason for beeping and hung up. Needles to say he had us over a barrel. So out of the goodness of his black heart he settled for 36% with hospital and 40% for doctor plus expenses. He ended up with more money then we received from doctor after expenses about 60/40. Expenses very questionable restaurants experts/ friends! I did try to file in 2000 with State bar in Austin but gave up it is difficult. Since then my son passed away also. I started thinking people do not need the person who is supposed to help take advantage of your lack of knowledge during the worst time of your life. In his defense this happened 19 years ago maybe he changed. Please beware!

Jennifer Jamison, Criminal defense Attorney on Jul 3, 2019
Relationship: Worked for lawyer

I worked for Ryan as a legal assistant prior to law school, and then again as an associate attorney after I graduated. Ryan has been a mentor to me for over 7 years. Ryan is smart, dedicated, and passionate about his work and his clients. His background in both law and medicine make him uniquely qualified to handle complex medical malpractice cases. Ryan is an excellent attorney, and an expert in all things medical malpractice, personal injury, and torts.

Paul Morin, Litigation Attorney on Apr 18, 2019
Relationship: Worked together on matter

Ryan is a great medical malpractice lawyer. He is a medical doctor, as well, so his insight and knowledge of medical malpractice claims is priceless. We have had two cases together and each worked out very profitable for the clients and us. I look forward to our next case together.

I endorse this lawyer. I have known Ryan Krebs professionally for over 20 years. I have referred several complex medical negligence cases to him, and each time he achieved an outstanding result and had a very satisfied client.

Ryan is not only incredibly intelligent; he is incredibly hard-working. His extensive knowledge in both law and medicine make Ryan a formidable medical malpractice attorney. After having worked on cases with him, it is abundantly clear that Ryan cares about his clients and will fight tirelessly for them.

Michelle Maloney, Medical malpractice Attorney on Apr 3, 2013
Relationship: Worked together on matter

Dr. Krebs is incredibly smart and thorough in his work up of cases. His joint JD/MD status uniquely qualifies him to handle complex medical malpractice cases and observing him take a deposition is a true pleasure. I am consistently impressed, not only his work, but also with his excellent rapport with clients.
