The Ultimate in Performance and Integrity

I was married for 26 years. Never did I imagine that our sons would be living in the hell they were for so many years, so I filed for a divorce. An attorney friend and coworker to my wife recommended to us legal counsel. As David knows I still am looking to do what is best for our sons and my ex-wife... to civilly continue to raise our sons and ultimately become friends with her again. David took many diverse and extremely complicated situations and accomplished our divorce with ease. In addition he has provided next steps/contacts to ensure my above goals were met. David was on the mark every time no matter the situation. Thank you, David. Because of you and all of your crew myself and my family can now move forward on the ultimate path.

Honest, efficient and empathetic.

To say my custody case is difficult would be a gross understatement. I have had multiple attorneys counsel me that my case was a lost cause and a waste of time and money. David not only took my case but provided legal counsel that lead to the most favorable outcome possible. This was not an easy o...r short process. Over the span of two years, David did not waiver, lose interest or try to get me to settle to suit his schedule. I cannot say this about my previous lawyer. David showed genuine interest and empathy for my children’s situation and would not settle for anything less than their health and safety. I have lived the last ten years trying to get the court system to listen to my children and myself with little success. When most people hear about our situation it’s disbelief and denial, especially on the courts behalf. David not only believed in me but he also restored my belief in myself. It’s very deflating and painful not being able to protect my children or show others the abuse they were put through. The courts parental gender bias is very evident and has been held over me for many years now. David would not allow me to wallow in that same mentality. The best thing that I can say about David, is that he protected my family when it seemed as if no one cared. David is and will continue to be my attorney and the only attorney that I would recommend. I also need to say that the legal team he works with is top notch. Extremely friendly, helpful and informative. At no point in our two year process did I ever waiver in my trust of the firm. THANK YOU DAVID!!!

Above and beyond!

David Kracke did an amazing job with my very challenging custody case. He was always professional and courteous. He was very clear in explaining my options, he is extremely intelligent and knowledgeable. Mr. Kracke and his staff we’re so easy to work with and very patient.

Informative and understanding

This past year David represented me during a legal battle with my ex. I was very impressed with his knowledge and understanding. He was clear of the options and pros and cons. I felt David had the best interests for my children. I would definitely use him again.

Professional and Savvy, aggressively pursues the absolute best results!

Wow!! I'm so impressed with this attorney! He has helped me now in 2 cases the first he was able to get a minimal temporary custody schedule ( which sets a precedent and tone for the potentially lengthy divorce as well as the family law judge that will end up getting your case and making final decisi...ons about custody.) This is a CRUCUAL first step in protecting yourself and children and lends itself to the final decision months down the road when they decide who gets custody/ visitation. In the first case I got sole temporary posession of the home as well as physical custody of the minor children. The ex's visitation: no overnights unless he requests them from me, and a 5 hour visit Saturday and 6 hours every other Sunday 10a-4p. Sole possession of the home is important when your husband is threatening you and won't move out! In this situation I filed for a protection order along with my divorce petition. David not only described the process at every step he made sure everything was in order. He also made sure I did not give away too much---this one thing alone is invaluable!! It's easy to get intimidated and try to appease a pissed off soon to be ex. Husband. David made great suggestions, he's practical and will absolutely fight for what you want. He listens, he's proactive, he's engaging, he's real, he's humble and is willing to negotiate/mediate on your behalf. Additionally....he considers "a win" getting you the closest thing to what you want if not exactly what you want. He gave me clear options for how to proceed in our case and told me his opinion of what we should aim for based on experience. In the second case I was returning to court for another protection order...this was 6 months into the divorce process. Again....a huge win. He saved me 3-5k and got my "husband" to stipulate to a protection order which is rare under our circumstances. He leveraged the info he had and "closed the deal"... Very professional, easy to work with, would highly recommend him.
