Samuel J. Kaufman

Excellent in all areas including client relations, showed real empathy and understanding of my concerns from the beginning. Made sure i understood all aspects of both the pluses and minuses my case. Knows all the written and "unwritten" rules in navigating the legal system including ...great legal tactics and strategies. Made a very agreeable payment plan that I could live with and understood my potential hidden costs such as loss of professional licenses, reputation, etc. Successfully plead my case down to an incredibly good outcome. A fantastic attorney with great skills and a moral, ethical man I would recommend to anyone.

The Attorney, Mr. Kaufman and his staff handled my legal issues with total professionalism. They also were compassionate when consulting with me. Mr. Kaufman is one of the best attorneys, if not the best, that Key West has to offer. I would highly recommend his office. The results were to my advantag...e in the cases he handled. Thank you Sam Kaufman for your dedication to the job that you do.

A short vacation trip to the Keys resulted in my arrest during a traffic stop along with a subsequent prosecution by the State Attorney office of the 16th judicial circuit. I am from out of state and knew nothing of the laws in Florida let alone a competent attorney to assist me in the matter. I quic...kly asked around and was referred to Sam Kaufman by a local who had knowledge of him and his abilities and let me just say, that was the best referral I have ever received. From the initial consultation phone call to the final jury verdict many months later, Sam and his team of legal professionals guided me through the entire legal wrangling process with ease and more importantly understanding. They answered all of my emails and phone calls promptly and thoroughly over these many months and I sensed they took a personal stake in getting the most favorable outcome possible for me. Through a myriad of trial continuances they kept me informed of what documents I needed to produce and when so that I remained in good standing with court procedures. The trial preparation, jury selection, and cross examinations during trial are the true hallmarks of Mr. Kaufman and his firm in my opinion though. Aggressive, confident, experienced, and ultra-prepared are all words that come to mind when you witness Sam and his associate attorney try your case. You absolutely will get the sense that nothing was left out and a very effective defensive strategy has been carried out when you witness this team in the courtroom. Being arrested and prosecuted is a very nerve wracking experience but I highly recommend Sam and his firm if you should find yourself in a similar situation in need of criminal defense excellence.

The feeling of knowing Sam Kaufman is our lawyer is very reassuring. No one wants to go to court. It is a stressful feeling even when you are fairly certain you will prevail. Sam has a way of relieving stress. He always treats us like it is his very first case. He does his homework, no matter how bi...g or small our issues are. It is nice to be able to say, "We trust our lawyer. " Not everyone can say that.
