Couldn't be happier with the outcome of the case

I had a DUI that was over 8 years old and had a bench warrant issued in my name. In addition to the DUI charge I was charged with evading the police, leaving the scene of an accident and criminal mischief. Steven clearly laid out the potential consequences while also identify the path forward. I w...as facing 5 days in jail just to clear the bench warrant but Steven was able to approach the judge and convince him for an immediate release. Once all was said and done Steven had the District Attorney drop the evading the police, leaving the scene of an accident and had my DUI charged lowered from a class 3 to a class 2. Steven leveraged his excellent relationship with the DA and I only received a $300 fine and 6 months of probation. No jail time, no license suspension. Steven exceeded my expectations by FAR. I couldn't be happier and I will highly recommend Steven Kellis.

Steven Kellis Review

Mr. Kellis is an incredibly talented attorney. My case turned out to be more complicated than we anticipated. He never gave up on me and to say that he went the extra mile would be an understatement. Despite the amount of time involved, he never asked for more money which would have been justified. ...I got the impression that he really cared about me. He also seems to be well respected by the court system. I literally owe him my life. You would be a fool not to retain him.

THE BEST LAWYER IN DUI CASES

Mr. Kellis represented me in a DUI case that occurred in May of 2012. I chose Mr. Kellis for couple of reasons. First, he handles only DUI cases so I knew that he was an expert in the field. Second, after talking with several lawyers, one of the lawyers actually recommended talking with Mr. Kellis. T...he lawyer's response was that Mr. Kellis will give you an honest answer. From that point, I had a good feeling about Mr. Kellis. I met with Mr. Kellis and he reviewed my case. A quick rundown on my case: I was involved in a motorcycle and automobile accident with BAC level of 0.219% (tier 3). If you know a little about DUI cases, you know this is one of the worst cases. Right from the start, he was able to catch something that other lawyer didn't see in the criminal complaint. And he was the only lawyer that said he can get me into ARD program. Every other lawyers' response was that it was not possible because of the accident and victim or gave me the "we can try but..." answer. I decided to have Mr. Kellis represent me and from beginning to the end, he put me at ease. He was very response and kept me in the loop at all times. He definitely earned my trust quickly. Again, my case was one of the extreme ones (accident + victim + tier 3 BAC level) but Mr. Kellis persistently fought and defended my case. The ARD was initially rejected but that did not stop him from continuing to fight for ARD approval. He wrote an appeal letter and kept fighting for ARD approval. In the end, I got accepted into ARD program. I would like to thank Mr. Kellis for his expertise, persistency, and trustworthiness. Mr. Kellis will stand by you until the end and he will try everything possible to get the result you want. He is truly the best of the best in DUI cases. Thanks again, Mr. Kellis!

Thank you, Mr. Kellis

Steve Kellis is hard working, tenacious, and he gets results. He only does DUI cases, and he's a real professional in this specialized area. In my recent case, entry into the ARD Program (Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition Program) was denied twice, despite a clean driving record. Mr. Kellis kept... pounding away, moving steadily up the chain of command in the District Attorney's office, until he won the hard-fought battle and saved me a host of problems. Things looked bleak for a while, but Mr. Kellis saved the day and I'm currently enrolled in the ARD Program. I recommend him strongly for your consideration.

Law Offices of Steven E. Kellis

Steven Kellis was an outstanding attorney, highly knowledgeable in his field of expertise. I felt extremely comfortable with his acumen to not only understand the legal system, but his foresight to advise appropriately as required facilitating minimal damages yield best outcome results. Steven was... timely on communications, organized walking into the courtroom, and was not shy to fight for clients interest. I had a need for an attorney that knew the system and had the ability to get the job done. Overall, I was extremely pleased and equally impressed with Steven Kellis' management of the entire legal process and highly recommend his services. -
