Philip L Kratz

I hired Mr. Kratz to help in my very high conflict family law case. We had an initial disagreement over billing but Mr. Kratz saw my viewpoint and refunded me $750!!! I am so grateful for that. I do not have the funds to continue to retain him. He gave me my closing file with his word as evidence as ...to the contempt situation with my ex husband. He wished me well and hopes my situation with my child turns out in my favor and we have a happy life together. I would rehire Mr. Kratz if ever I am able to. Kim S.

There aren't enough words to express my thankfulness to Phil for the wonderful work he did in my divorce case!! It was a LONG drawn out fiasco that lasted 1 1/2yrs and ALOT of emotional stress...Phil was very very patient and kind thru this whole ordeal! Without going into huge detail I want to exp...lain that not ALL lawyers have your best interest at heart....some of them decide "for you" what your settlement should be with the attorney for the other side and then try and "talk you into" what you should settle for....this was what happened to me PRIOR to finding Phil! Phil really listened to me...most times when I would meet with him, he would start the meeting by updating me on my case and TOGETHER we would decide what our next action should be. He was thoughtful, and considerate...he truly gave me a voice and my opinion mattered!! I had gone thru two lawyers before finding Phil...it was a nightmare to say the least...and the sad part is that you learn as you go...never having gone thru ANYTHING needing an atty I "didn't know what I didn't know"...until it was too late! Luckily I was referred to Phil and consulted with him, from the beginning I liked him and mainly the reason was he asked very specific questions, got all of the details, kept track of data w/spreadsheets...was so prepared that I knew if this ended up at trial he would be on top of everything! We did not end up in trial...three days prior we settled..and it was only because of Phil that I made out with anything close to what I feel I deserved!

I began my divorce back in August 2010, I have three children and was a stay at home mom with no income. Phil and Shelley helped me through every step of the way. We dealt with a lot of nonsense, and he handled it all professionally. His main focus was on the outcome for my children and I. I would no...t be where I am without him. I would suggest him to anyone in need of legal advice.
