3 cases

I havent been in trouble with the law since i was 19 years old. In 2015, my mother died suddenly right in front of me and at the time i had 7 years of sobriety. I through it all away and within 2 years. I caught 2 d.u.i cases and 1 possession case in Philly. My girlfriend hired Steve Kellis for the 2... d.u.i cases and he EVEN took the possession case for free. After almost 2 years of missing court and warrants for my arrest, Steve stuck with me and helped me. Even when i wasn't helping myself. I am now sober again and done with all 3 cases. 1 d.u.id.u.i was throw out. The possession i had to just prove that i am staying clean and the other d.u.i case went to trial. Which i was found "Not Guilty". You had to see him question the cop! It was great. The cop got caught in 3 lies. Steve doea take on a lot of clients but if you show you care about yourself , he will go above and beyond for you. He also knows all the judges, which helped a lot. I still am shocked i was found guilty with tge d.u.i case that went to trial! I am just greatful for his help. He is even helping my girlfriend with an appeal for her probation hearing where she got 5-12 months just for her 1st probation violation. I am so shocked, but with Steves help, i have faith! Im sure my girl agrees in me saying "he was worth every penny!

THE BEST THERE IS

Steven Kellis is the number person that should be in your CONTACT LIST!!! My first DUI in 2013 was at the most improbable time of my life. I had just finished school, started a new career & one day in June of 2013 it all changed. I called 10 different lawyers and STEVEN was the only one who assure...d me that I will not do jail time & will not have my license suspended. Followed through with him & the results were outstanding. Case dismissed!!! My second DUI in 2015, I knew who to call right away! I was facing 1 year license suspension & significant jail time. Again Mr. Kellis delivered & got the case dismissed. Have never been so satisfied in life with how meticulous & tenacious Steven is. My third DUI in 2018, my heart literally got shattered into a thousand pieces! I said there is no way am getting off this time. I was facing tier 3 and bac .15 with accident and I again I called STEVEN KELLIS! I said to I called you because I know you are the best & you are the only who can either reduce it or a small chance of having it dissmissed! Steven faught tooth and nails and was able to reduce to a guilty plea with no jail time or license suspension! However there is a small but rare possibility of getting dismissed! I said Steven I trust you I have faith in your knowledge and your instinct so I said let's do it, let's go to trail. In that moment, what Steve said portrayed that words are indeed VERY POWERFUL. With arguably the toughest Judge in the stand the DA was left speechless & did not have a solution! CASE DISMISSED!!! Steven I thank you very much for everything you have done for me, God Bless you and your Family 5 stars is not enough for a man of this Stature. I am blessed to have had you as my lawyer & I truly appreciate all the hard work & all the places you came to visit me to discuss our case! If anyone wants a 2nd chance or even 3rd chance in LIFE Steven E Kellis is THE BEST THERE IS!!!

Fantastic legal representation

Was pullover over while driving with a suspended license due to a DUI. Mr. Kellis was able to get the charges reduced and I only had to pay a small fine. He was able to keep me on track with my ARD and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the outcome. Would definitely recommend to anyone dealing wi...th a DUI or driving without a license charge. A+

The Best!!

Steven Kellis saved my life! Facing a DUI ( I have had prior convictions) that could have had significant jail time, long term license suspension and life destroying consequences, I retained Attorney Kellis. His knowledge of DUI law, good relationships with the ADA and DA, negotiated a plea deal for ...me that I did not think was even possible. His reassurance and guidance through the whole process was priceless and done in an understanding and nonjudgmental way. I can not recommend Attorney Kellis enough. Thanks Steve!

TOP DOG

STEVE SAVED MY LIFE. I was arrested and charged with DUI in April of 2016 after being pulled over in my driveway. I immediately retained him as my lawyer, and over the following 14 months he never stopped fighting and trying to get me the best deal possible. I could not bring myself to take any de...als due to the terrible impact this would have on my life so we decided to take it to trial. It was the most stressful day of my life but due to his tenacity and effective explanations in the court room I was found NOT GUILTY. This man pulled me out of a terrible situation and gave me my life back. If you find yourself in legal trouble hire him and you WILL NOT regret it.
