Highly Recommended!

Mr. Gres was highly recommended to us by a family friend, and we’re so glad we chose him. His legal knowledge, experience, and skill were evident from the start. He clearly understood the steps needed to make the case workable and favorable—not just for us as clients, but also for the court—in a comp...lex mental incompetence case. There were moments during the process that felt uncertain and nerve-wracking, but Mr. Gres remained calm and focused, ultimately delivering the positive result we were hoping for. We truly recommend Mr. Gres to anyone looking for an attorney who will fight for the best outcome you deserve.

GREAT attorney

While I don't want to share personal information, I will say that I had the unfortunate experience of needing legal help during a moment in my life that I truly regret. I'll forever be grateful that a friend recommended I call Kevin. He quickly assessed my case, spotted a key issue the prosecutor had... overlooked, and took decisive action that ultimately led to a favorable outcome. His strategic approach helped me secure a much better resolution than I expected. He was honest, professional, and really knew what he was doing. His paralegal was also great. Definitely recommend him if you find yourself needing an attorney.

TRO/PRO -- Highly Recommend

I had the privilege of working with Kevin Gres for my family's case, where we sought both a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) and a Permanent Restraining Order (RO). He navigated us through the stress of the situation, and ultimately secured a fantastic outcome for us. From the start, Kevin was an in...credible advocate, offering not only his legal expertise but also a personal touch that made the entire process feel more manageable. Kevin’s flexibility in understanding our financial position was greatly appreciated. He didn’t make us feel as though our situation was a burden; rather, he was open and considerate of our needs. It was clear he was committed to helping us, and we never felt like we were just another case to him. Throughout the entire process, Kevin was consistently prompt and efficient in his communications. He listened intently to our concerns, which made it easy to build a natural and trusting rapport. He handled the opposing party and their counsel with a level of professionalism and finesse that was not only impressive to us, but also recognized by the judges overseeing the case. Kevin remained calm and level-headed, even when things got complicated. We are now able to move forward with a sense of safety and peace of mind, knowing that Kevin was there for us every step of the way.

Highly recommend Kevin as criminal defense attorney.

Never thought I'd find myself in need of a criminal defense attorney. With no idea where to begin, I hired another attorney who was terrible & ended up getting me arrested on ridiculous charges due to their offices negligence. Kevin not only recovered the case, he was able to have it dismissed b...efore trial. It took nearly a year because the prosecution wouldn't budge. Kevin stayed firm & had a solid grasp on the situation. Communication was a constant struggle but when I was able to speak withhim, he was always poignant & knowledgeable. Kevin was recommended to me by a friend & I would not hesitate to to the same.
