Above and Beyond

We found ourselves in a situation that required representation for our minor son. He was arrested and facing some heavy charges. Ryan was knowledgeable, well organized and sympathetic to our concerns. Ryan made himself available to us beyond the normal business hours. He would call us frequently to c...heck in and to see how we were hold up. I would recommend Ryan to others, He made a horrible situation more tolerable.

Amazing lawyer

After being taken to jail for a domestic violence charge I knew I needed to call a lawyer I could trust. I hired Ryan 3 years ago for what could have been a serious charge.... his fast action and lawyer expertise reduced it to only taking a class and nothing serious on my record! So this time I knew ...Ryan would be my best option.... after one week of dealing with my case he had the charges dropped! I can’t thank him enough for his work and dedication and amazing professionalism! Thanks a lot Ryan!

Case Dismissed!

Extremely Knowlegable and straight forward. My case was a Felony and Ryan had it drop down to a misdemeanor. Faught endlessly till the whole case was dismissed. I am so very satisfied and happy to have had Ryan on my side fighting for me. Great Lawyer. I can sleep at night again Thanks to his hard wo...rk and efforts.

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.
