Auto Injury/ Disability

He arranged rides for me to go to my Dr. He was fast reliable and on time. He went to court for my disability, he was prepared, had a good argument and won my case. He helped me get to all the right doctors and help me plan my surgery. His colleagues helped me when I needed help in finding a loan com...pany so I could pay my bills while waiting for my case to be settled. All in all he and his colleagues were very kind and very helpful.

Best Attorney

I have had the privilege of being represented by MR Humphries and the support of his firm. He has handled two cases for my wife and myself I am a former Police Officer and been in courtrooms many times, I have never seen such a well rounded and Professional Trial Lawyer. MR Humphries handled my ssd c...ase I am a Disabled Veteran we had a favorable decision in four months as well as a full trial representing my wife and myself as plaintiffs against a stalker we won hands down due to Kevin's knowledge of Law and Courtroom procedures. He is very reasonable priced and deserves the highest Accolade's as he is without any reservation the best Attorney I have known, Although I am older than MR Humphries he has the demeanor of compassion as your older Brother would and greatly comforted my family's situation, He will be our family's Legal councilor for life. Anyone would be wise to consider MR Humphries for any legal matters, Thank You.

Great Representation

Kevin represented me in a personal injury case in which I had permanent injuries. Kevin guided me through the process, kept me informed with progress of the case and claim, and provided me with effective and hands-on representation. I was very satisfied with his work in representing me, and I highl...y recommend him to anyone in need of an experienced and professional attorney.

OVERWHELMING CHARISMA BUT NO LEGAL SKILLS

Overwhelming charisma...but no legal skills. Essentially facing a life sentence, if convicted, I felt urged by this attorney to accept an 8 year prison offer. He did nothing to move my case along, and it lingered, unproductive, for 18 long months. It seemed like he did not want to work my case and w...as pushing me to accept a plea. I am innocent, I told him. His response? There are a lot of innocent people in the prisons. After working with this attorney, I can understand why. I caught him in several lies to me. He did not know my case, so when questioned, it was apparent he had not reviewed the documents that I had given him. He was given documents, then called me to pick them up, then called me back and asked ME to make copies for him and bring them back to his office. His depositions were so useless that a Judge ordered them to be redone by my new attorney (something I am told, is NEVER usually allowed by the courts). Even the Judge that ordered the re-taking of the depositions asked who the attorney was that took them. The Judge was obviously unimpressed by the legal effort this attorney put into our case. Key questions were not asked of prime witnesses. The Judge felt that, for justice to be served, the depositions needed to be redone. Continuance after continuance was requested in my case. Court appearances happened without my even knowing they were scheduled, nor the outcome. His staff was untrained, judgmental, and only responded to me when I called repeatedly and finally had to demand a response. Critical evidence to my case went uncollected. No experts were hired for my case, except for the one I had to go find, hire, and pay for, myself.. Simply stated, this attorney took all our money and did almost nothing to earn it. I think he was pushing us to settle for 8 years in prison, so he would not have to work the case and could pocket the money. Finally, after firing him (he says he withdrew, amazingly at the same time I was at his office to fire him), I hired a competent attorney, who got my case thrown out on its merits. The new attorney used all the evidence that Humphries had access to, to prove our innocence and get the charges completely dismissed. No deals. No prison. I shutter to think where I would be right now, had I not fired this attorney. I am so grateful that I am not one of those people who are innocent and are in prison.....as Humphries suggests. He talked a good talk in the beginning, but had nothing to back it up. He does not seem to see his clients as people who need his help. He seems to see his clients as a money train for his lifestyle. Please, for your own sake, seek other counsel. Don't be drawn in by this mans charisma, as we were. This attorney can not tell the truth.
