Worth every penny

A couple years ago I received a huge ticket for speeding and reckless driving in Colorado and Ross got my ticket significantly reduced and I was able to keep my license! Thank you so much Ross!

Traffic ticket

I was stress driving and got a huge ticket. Ross was able to get it significantly reduced. He was very responsive to emails and spoke to me on the phone any time I called. I’ve never been through something like this and he made sure to answer any question I had.

Criminal defense lawyer | Jan 26

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I engaged Ross by phone to represent a family member in Colorado. I interviewed three attorneys by phone and Ross was by far the most impressive and responsive. I had done some preliminary research into the issues and he freely discussed he thoughts with me prior to retaining him. He got a tremendous resolution of the case, the charge reduced to a very minor non-criminal traffic offense. He was easy to reach, responsive to emails and phone calls and an all around great counsel. I knew my family member was in good hands. He has my unqualified endorsement."

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.
