Before talking about an absolutely amazing job Mr Kurpiers did for me I will start with how we met. I was at the gym getting my daily workout and when I was done I went into the locker room to shower before leaving. While getting dressed of all things I struck up a conversation with at the time just another fellow gym member with a warm inviting personality(which explains why the conversation lasted so long). Among other things, we talked about our occupations and I learned Mr Kurpiers was a lawyer. Ironically at the time I was dealing with a very serious legal issue but I didn’t discuss it with Mr Kurpiers because I already hired a lawyer and our conversation was interesting enough that the thought of sharing my troubles with him never crossed my mind. Before parting ways Mr Kurpiers gave me his business card and said if I ever wanted to workout together I could contact him. Back to why I’m writing this review......... While dealing with my legal issues with my lawyer I became increasingly concerned about his ability to effectively handle the magnitude and severity of my case because it was with the federal government. I called Mr Kurpiers and explained my situation to him and after hearing his response, and a little bit of his strategy, I immediately fired my lawyer and hired My Kurpiers. Early on I was deathly afraid of the outcome so I was not in a good mental state. No lawyer can accurately predict the outcome of a case so when Mr Kurpiers assured me everything would be ok, I had serious doubts until I witnessed a level of professionalism that can only be described as “Surgical”. Mr Kurpiers did exactly what he promised he would do and my results exceed my expectations. I have some very important advice based on my personal experience. When hiring a lawyer please, please please, please, make sure he or she is a trial attorney. A trial attorney is capable of “going the distance” which means he or she can try a case in open court. Why is this important? Because when the other side threatens to take your case to trial your lawyer doesn’t get scared and settle……settling could result in you pleading guilty to a crime you didn’t commit because your lawyer has no trial experience and is easily intimidated. Mr Kupiers is the trial attorney you want when you expect results and not just effort. Thanks to you Mr Kurpiers I have my life back and I will forever be grateful because you saved my life! When I think back on my life and the paths I have taken I get chills when I ask myself “what if I had just left the gym that day and showered at home”. Thank you Ron for saving my life! Derrick
