Eric T. Krening

Last year I got the horrible phone call from the school while I was at work, saying that my son was being arrested! I didn't know what to do - I searched online and luckily stumbled on Mr. Krening. He took my call immediately and I don't even remember exactly what was said on the phone but I hung up ...feeling much better about the situation, and impressed at Mr. Krening's professionalism. He actually beat me to the police station and walked us through a few terrible hours trying to get my child released. Mr. Krening took the time to really get to know my child and his overall situation so that he could explain our legal options with as much context as possible. He suspected that my child needed treatment for an anxiety disorder - thanks to Mr. Krening's advice we got him tested and diagnosed, and into a much better situation at school. That alone has made an huge difference in my child's life! This was my first real interation with a lawyer and I didn't expect Mr. Krening to care so much about my child's overall well-being. It was a very pleasant surprise. In the end, after a lot of hard work, Mr. Krening got my child's case pled down from two felony charges to just one misdemeanor (with just a short probation!) I couldn't be more pleased with Mr. Krening's professionalism, knowledge, care and results! One note: there were several times in this case where after a discussion and careful instructions I chose to file documents such as deferrals at the court myself. I saw this as an opportunity to keep our costs down. Even though we had insurance that covered the matter, it does not cover "costs" such as travel time, etc. (check your policy, don't let it surprise you!) Filing documents myself saved money out of my pocket and I appreciated it greatly! I would hire Mr. Krening again in a heart beat.
