Jeff Kriske and Randy DeLelles

Kristan helped us with two separate issues and in each instance was reliable and professional. She was quick to accommodate our schedule and we were very impressed. We would recommend her without reservation.

GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND

I AM FACED WITH SEVERE PENALTIES CONCERNING A CIVIL MATTER. I WAS REFERRED TO AARON AND KRISTAN DUE TO THEIR IMMENSE EXPERIENCE IN THIS TYPE OF LAW. I AM GOING THROUGH BANKRUPTCY AND CAN NOT AFFORD THE RETAINER FOR A CASE SUCH AS THIS...WITH THAT SAID, AARON AND KRISTAN STILL WENT THROUGH MY SUMMONS... AND GAVE ME A WEALTH OF INFORMATION TO TRY TO DEFEND MYSELF. THEY BOTH WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND WHAT I HAD EXPECTED. MY BELIEF IS THAT YOU WILL BE HARD PRESSED TO FIND BETTER LAWYERS THAN THESE TWO.

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.
