Best of the best

I hired Kyle for my Criminal/ domestic violence case. Kyle was empathetic to my concerns, listened to me and was able to pull out the details that was needed. He told me all possible outcomes. He told me to trust him and I did. He told me would he would go through it with me and he did. He was resp...onsive to my concerns and/or emails. I am so happy with my decision to choose Kyle to represent me!!!

Kyle Vaughan is the Real Deal

We hired Mr. Vaughan on a criminal case that had lingered for years and never should have been filed. Instead it caused a parole revocation and secret indictment. The DA wanted a win no matter what, like it was a basketball game instead of someone's life. Most lawyers would recommend a plea deal e...ven though innocent because they can't handle a jury trial and the stakes are so high. We needed so much more, the best. Mr. Vaughan is gifted with actual skills, has a serious work ethic, and he does right by his clients. He investigated, interviewed and prepared himself, arguing skillfully at motion hearings and the trial itself. He showed up and did his job, kept his promises, was responsive to every call and email, never delayed a thing. Hallelujah and Amen. Mr. Vaughan listened to his client, believed in him, and proved there are great people practicing the law. We could not have asked for more and I told him that before the jury returned. A trial is never a sure thing. But Mr. Vaughan, this very civilized man who stayed calm when I wanted to choke people out for their lies, brought back a "Not Guilty" verdict on both charges. He did it all with a laptop, a black defendant and nearly all white jury, in Sullivan County, Tennessee. One of the very best days of my life, it still fills me with complete and utter joy. Thank you will never be enough. Hiring Mr. Vaughan was probably the best decision of my life.

Professional, Patient, Kind, Dedicated, Strong.

I had never been through a divorce, not to mention, alone, emotionally scarred and mad all at the same time. Kyle listened, listened, and listened some more. Through anger, tears, phone calls, emails, Kyle was always listening, understanding and very patient. I am not sure how he put up with me. ...This divorce was long and drawn out for many reasons that I didn't understand until it was over. Kyle continued to tell me "It will be okay, trust me, let me do my job", and that's exactly what he did. He fought for me, and did everything possible to make sure I got what I deserved, "justice", and that is exactly what I got, "justice" and then some! Despite the battle, I knew Kyle was the right person to "fight for me" and I am so thankful. He talked to me and treated me just as anyone would want an attorney to treat them, like I was the most important person on this earth! This attorney, is "awesome".
