The Kent Law Firm, APC

My experience with the Jeff Kent Law Firm was superb. Jeff is a very knowledgeable attorney and well respected by his peers and court personnel. He handled my issues with the court system to a very satisfactory conclusion, and was always very responsive to my needs and requests. I highly recommend the Kent Law firm for any legal needs you may have.

A family member being faced with a CDL suspension for medical reasons was a daunting proposition. DMV required medical clearance but discouragingly, many medical personnel were unwilling to sign the forms. However, Jeff Kent knew exactly what to do. He stayed the course with us, provided guidance and support all the way through to successful CDL reinstatement. He was unfailingly VERY responsive to text and phone calls. Jeff Kent is a model attorney that I highly recommend for any civil/criminal cases. Many Thanks Jeff!

Where do I even begin? Jeff Kent is more than a lawyer... he's a guardian angel. I've never faced any type of crime in all my years of life. I've never been arrested, and I've never even had issues with traffic tickets. During the Christmas season, I had a little side hustle where I sold replica AirPods that were definitely fake. Honestly, it was hard to believe anyone didn't know they weren't real because I was selling them for $30-$50 each. My customers loved them, kept coming back, and even sent me referrals. If someone asked if they were fake, I'd just tell them to try them out and let me know what they thought. They'd test them, like them, and buy them. If they broke, I'd replace them for free. I convinced myself I was doing a good service. Did I think I was doing something wrong? Honestly, I had convinced myself that I wasn't. But that didn't matter--what I was doing was wrong. One day, I was arrested in an undercover sting operation after selling about $400 worth of AirPods to a plainclothes police officer. They said the value was worth more than $3,000 if they were real. That led to me being taken to the police station, booked, and charged with a felony. Yes--a felony. Mugshot and everything. I bailed myself out, but I was completely humiliated. I have a life insurance license that I've held for years, and suddenly I was terrified I'd lose it. I also thought I was going to lose my job. I'd never felt so alone. I was embarrassed to tell anyone, extremely anxious, and I couldn't even focus on work. On top of that, I had to report the arrest to the Department of Insurance. The thought of losing my career and everything I had worked for was crushing. I reached out to a few different lawyers for consultations, but none of them made me feel comfortable. Then I called Jeff. From the very first appointment, he made me feel good about the situation and reassured me that he'd do his best. And he did better than that--he got my entire case dismissed in just a few months! Normally, this would have taken 6 months to a year (or longer), but Jeff made it happen in under 5 months. That's unbelievable. I was expecting the worst, but Jeff stayed positive and kept me calm and informed every step of the way. In the end, I didn't have to pay any restitution at all. All I had to do was complete 10 hours of community service. That was it. And now, I don't have to report this arrest anywhere on any application. I can legally answer "NO, I HAVE NOT BEEN ARRESTED." I have a clean record as if nothing ever happened--and I'm so thankful for that. Integrity and ethics mean everything, and I let that slip for a moment when I was chasing extra Christmas money. Not all money is good money, and I've learned my lesson the hard way. But I'm so thankful that Jeff gave me another chance. He's patient, calm, and answered all my questions (even when I asked the same one over and over). I walked into his office a nervous wreck, but he always made me feel comfortable. And this is important: I saw Jeff before those long months of fear set in. If I hadn't, I don't know how I would've made it through. For months, I lived with that fear, not knowing if I'd face jail time or if my professional license would be gone forever--but Jeff carried me through it. Whatever money you're thinking about spending on a lawyer--spend it with Jeff. It's absolutely worth it. He has the skills, the knowledge, and the relationships to get the best possible outcome. I read a lot of reviews before I chose him, and I'm so glad I did. I hope my review helps you the same way others helped me. Jeff isn't just a great lawyer--he's a good father, a good friend, and a genuine human being. I couldn't eat or think straight for weeks and months, but Jeff took that weight off me and gave me peace of mind. He's not just a lawyer, he's a lifesaver. Jeff, thank you for everything you've done and for staying patient with me. I'll forever be grateful. If you're on the fence, don't hesitate--book your consultation with him. I promise you, it's worth it.

Like many others on this page, searching for a defense attorney likely means you're at a difficult and uncertain crossroads in your life. Whatever the reason, we all make mistakes, and through my own experience, I can say the legal system is not designed to help those who are scared and uninformed. That's where Jeff Kent comes in. Two years ago, I met Jeff during one of the most stressful times of my life. I was overwhelmed with anxiety and honestly believed my life was over. From our very first meeting, Jeff took the time to listen, was empathetic, and helped me regain my sense of direction. Initially, I pushed back on some of his suggestions, thinking I knew better. Looking back, I realize how wrong I was. If you want to see a master at work in the courtroom, look no further than Jeff. His experience and professional relationships go far beyond what you'd expect from a typical defense attorney. From day one, he knew exactly how to guide me through the process. Jeff was always available when I had questions, never sugar-coated the reality of my situation, and was consistently honest about the best course of action to mitigate my case. I followed his advice to the letter, and gradually, my panic began to subside as we moved through the months of court proceedings. With each court appearance, my hope for a positive outcome grew stronger, and I always felt confident with Jeff by my side. In the end, Jeff resolved my case, and I never spent a single day in jail. I had state prison looming over me, and now, I'm writing this from home. I still have my family, my home, and my job -- things I believe I would have lost without Jeff Kent. There's no one else I'd trust to guide me through such a challenging time.

Nothing but good things to say about working with Jeff. Very communicative and always answers any questions. Recommend hiring this firm to handle all legal business. 10/10
