Jeff is an excellent attorney and very good person! We consulted him for a traffic violation case. He is very honest and straight forward how to go about the case and what can we expect. I am really thankful for making me understand the legal process, and helping me to proceed better approach.

Jeff Kays is representing me in my family law case. From the beginning Jeff has been everything I wanted in an attorney. From emails, phone calls, and being in a court room, Jeff is honest, firm, professional, organized, clear to the point, and knows what he’s doing. He has always been up front with me when it came to my goals and over delivered with the results. Going to court with Jeff was easier than I could have imagined and I remained confident in him the whole time. Every exhibit, discovery, paperwork was flawlessly organized and Jeff remained focused on me and my child the entire time. Along with my great experience with Jeff, I also had a lot of phone calls and emails with his paralegal, April. She was easy to communicate with and always had my questions answered in a matter of minutes if Jeff wasn’t available. Between Jeff and his team I still remain confident if I were ever to return to court again. Choosing Jeff as my attorney was an easy decision and I would hire him again and recommend him to those who are seeking an attorney.

Nobody wants to go through a divorce but Mr Kays made this process the easiest that it could be for me. He met with me and told me everything I needed to know to make my decisions. I was completely comfortable the first time we met and throughout the whole process. April, his paralegal helped so much and answered any questions! Wonderful experience in a not so fun situation. I would highly recommend!! Thanks!!

The first time I talked to Mr. Kays, he gave me information that was vital to me.....I had already spoken to three separate lawyers on the case, and in just a few minutes he gave me information that the other three lawyers had left out....I'm still scratching my head on that one. But I am SO grateful to this nice man for helping me out. I pray God will bless him and his family.

We needed someone to stand up for our rights and get the results we needed. Mr. Kays did it! I would highly recommend his services.

Jeff and his staff are always available for help when it's needed. Very knowledgeable and friendly and the best thing is they are AFFORDABLE! Not your typical attorney. I would recommend Jeff to handle any of your legal needs!

This attorney handled my legal matter with expertise, resulting in the best possible outcome. He returned my calls promptly and graciously, answering all of my questions in a way that I could understand. I have already recommended this attorney to others.

Jeffrey is an attorney that will shoot you straight on your criminal offers and will negotiate any counter offers you are wanting the prosecution to consider ...he got me less time in such negotiations and very pleased with his expertise .... anybody needing a criminal attorney should give Mr. Kays a call when looking for a proper defense!

Do not use this lawyer he cares about nothing but getting paid. Once I paid for the full amount I could never get ahold of him again. He didn’t give me all the information I needed ahead of time so on my last court date I had to make a huge decision on the spot that effected my life in a big way. This could have been avoided easily. Not to mention on my first court date he showed up a little over an hour late without even being prepped for what to expect. I feel I could have done better with a public defender, possibly going in alone.
