Jeffrey Donald Kent’s Reviews

I was charged with a DUI late last year and Mr. Kent kept me completely in the loop and his professionalism and knowledge exceeded my expectations beyond belief. Jeff was recommended to me by a few of my friends that had the privilege to hire Jeff with outstanding results as well. Cheers.

Jeffrey did an amazing job! Quick responeses and immediate help and attention! Always kept me informed and up to date. If your looking for a respectable and Great lawyer who you can trust look no further than Jeff!

Jeff got my case dropped from a felony to a misdemeanor. There's no doubt that his knowledge and passion for my case kept me out of serious jail time and a lifetime of being labeled as a convicted felon. I would recommend Jeff for anything from a first time DUI, to a very serious criminal charge. I have a huge respect for his dedication and powerful legal representation.
No need to look any further for an attorney.

Jeffrey Donald Kent
and Attorney Michael McDonnell both are great attorneys in Orange County. Michael McDonnel helped me get my record expunged. Jeffrey was very good at telling me what I was facing and being helpful in keeping the case from going to very far.

Jeff Kent helped us through the darkest hours of our lives with his positive and caring attitude. He unravelled the tangled mess and minimized the damage. He was there for us from start to finish and then some. He has our thanks and respect always.

I highly recommend Jeff Kent for his knowledgeable expertise in criminal defense. He is counsel you can count on, if you want "muscle" in the courtroom. I have been a client with Jeff for almost 10 years and he has advised me through several arrests and court appearances. Every incident, Jeff was there to guide me through my mistakes and get me back on track. Even when I became angry at the system and lashed out at him, Jeff knew what was best for me in the courtroom. Recently, he orchestrated a plea I would never have been offered, if someone else was representing me. I should have ended up serving time in jail, but Jeff's skill and ability to navigate the courtroom saved me. He is far superior to his counterparts and his rapport with court officers is exceptional. Don't go to court without him!

i was charged with sales and possession of narcotics (painkillers for an injury). i called a knowledgable lawyer friend of mine who recommended jeff kent.

i was neurotic, confused, and having a mental breakdown. jeff was the perfect antidote. he was responsive every step of the way. he was passionate and went above and beyond what was needed to make sure justice was realized.

and it was. i made a single mistake that could've ruined my life. instead, it just ended up costing some money. well worth it. every cent.

if not for jeff, i would've probably hired some random lawyer and made some type of mediocre deal. maybe they would have even advised me to plea guilty for a reduced sentence. who knows? but what i do know is that i now have some classes to take and court fees to pay.

he's the type of guy who will take an active interest in your case. you want him on your team. it's a privilege.

thank god for jeff kent.

Jeff Kent has represented me in orange county and LA county several times with results that you can only hope for. I have walked out of Downey superior court and Santa Ana superior court several times asking myself how in the heck did he get me out of this one? I have been arrested for possesion of a controlled substance,possesion for sale,possesion for sale while armed with fire arm, spousal abuse,receiving stolen ,possesion of stolen,felon in possesion of firearm and more. Some of those charges I have been arrested for several times,and i have never done any state prison time.If it was not for Jeff Kent I would have done state prison time years ago.I have known Jeff for a very long time, I first met him when he was a paralegal and he showed up for an attorney that i retained and i was so scared that he was going screw it all up and say the wrong thing, I called the attorney several times with my concern. He kept telling me to relax i am in good hands . So i rode it out and things went fine. The first time I used Jeff as an attorney was when I went to his partner for counsel and could not afford him, at that time he told me Jeff is now an attorney and does not charge as much to retain. It was a felony case and went with Jeff scared again and had unbelievable results. I could go on all day about Jeff . All I know is that there no feeling like walking into a court house looking at years in prison and walking out with all charges dropped. I have referred Jeff to many people and all have had great results. I would never even consider using another lawyer,EVER!

I had my lively hood striped out from under me by the local police department in a matter of a day. I was charged with

1. Possession of Marijuana with extent to sell
2. Possession of a Assault Rifle
3. Possession of $100,000.00 USD in Drug Currency
4. Possession of a Counterfeit $100.00 bill
5. Possession of a Counterfeit $100.00 bill
6. Second Degree Burglary
7. Second Degree Burglary

With all of these charges I facing about 7-10 years in State Prison if I was found Guilty by a Jury. I know that I would need a Attorney with a lot of experience, knowledge, and trustworthy to handle my case. I was very thankful that I found Jeff Kent at McDonnell & Kent Law Offices. With Jeff's support and long practice in Criminal Defense he was able to get me a unbelievable plea from the D.A.'s Office of 120 days at a private pay and stay jail with 3 years of probation and the best thing about this deal is after my 3 years on probation I can my charges ex-sponged like it never happened. Thank you so much for your hard work and helping me keep my lively hood.

I needed Mr. Kent's services for a criminal issue, a very vulnerable time in my life. He exuded confidence, empathy, and communicated every step of the process in layman's terms. Although he didn't sugar-coat the possibilties, his knowledge and experience filled me with confidence, and his results were consistent with that confidence. The real surprise was that he was willing to advise me during my ensuing probation period. The flat rate he quoted me truly covered every step of the process and didn't terminate with the pronouncement of sentence. Although I hope I never need his services again, I retain his phone number on my speed dial and wouldn't hesitate to call him if the need arose. I strongly recommend him for criminal defense work.

Jeff helped me out immensely on serveral occasions. He was always on point and without him things would have been much worse.

Jeff not only was a great defense attorney but also a good friend when I needed one the most. I find him, not only adept as a professional but also emotionally gets involved in your case matters. This obviously was good for me considering that he didn't judge me by my case but for who I am. This turned out great for both of us. Especially now that we are now friends.
Thank you Jeff

I have had the pleasure of working [along side of] Jeff Kent for the past several years. I have used him personally a couple of years ago when dealing with the Fullerton Police Department. Jeff beat me to the Station and was there every bit of the way. He has a great personality for what he does - and he is good at that - legal services served with personality that cannot be denied. Call and give Jeff Kent the opportunity to serve you - you won't be sad you did!

Without Jeff, i would not be typing this today. I was facing 7yrs in state prison and sitting in a cell with 150k bail. Jeff immediatley reduced bail so i could be released and began to fight for me. Jeff, was always direct with information and status and never gave me any false hopes - just the truth. His knowledge of criminal defense and presence in the courtroom is un-matched, he is number one.
Remember, its you vs the D.A when your charged, and the cards are stacked against you. Do yourself and your family a favor and call Jeff Kent. He is worth every dollar and more. Case was dimissed..
Thank you Jeff for being there!

I had another attorney prior to hiring Mr. Kent and they got me no where, once jeff was on my team I immediatly saw things happen. Judges acted differently and DA's were more willing to reduce my charges, and we never went to trial, My case was dissmissed due to lack of evidence and illegal search and seizure. Jeff made things happen fast and got me off! He seems to be well known in the system and is recognised as one of the best. thanks jeff!
