Former Client

Was extremely unprofessional while discussing proceedings leading up to the court’s ruling. Mr. Kent didn’t have accurate knowledge of the law regarding my case which lead to a conviction. I would do my due diligence if I could turn back time and thoroughly vet this guy before working with him. Buyer...’s remorse and I totally regret hiring this guy!

Professional obligations do not allow me to respond as I would wish. What I want more than anything is to investigate what happened and address your issues personally. Please call the office as soon as possible so that we can discuss your grievances. I appreciate your feedback.

Professional , knowledgeable and kind

I was very lucky to have Mr Kent represent me in case in which a person was trying to cause me damage legally. Mr Kent gave me the right amount of relevant information at each stage of the process, while listening to my concerns. He'll answer any questions you have and provides reassurance but is a...lso realistic about the process. He has the right experience and is a diligent worker. He quickly secured a no-conviction for my case and then further negotiated the opposition down to a lot less than what they were asking. Mr. Kent is worth hiring. All throughout, his priority was maintaining my good record. I'm extremely grateful to have contacted and hired him.

Incredible Defense Attorney!

Jeff Kent is one of the most honorable attorney's I've ever met. He resolved a warrant that resurfaced after 20 years with swift precision. Just speaking with him on the phone the first time I was impressed with his professionalism and compassion. Throughout the process he kept in contact, worked ...quickly and I was very assured by his calm demeanor. He had the warrant quashed and recalled on the first court appointment. I would highly recommend his services.

Highly recommend

I was in contact with Mr. Kent after being arrested for a misdemeanor. I found Mr. Kent to be very competent. His experience not only as a defense attorney but also as former prosecutor allows him to give insightful advice. He showed up to court on time and it was obvious he knew what he was doing.... I think his strength though is how he worked/communicated with me, which I imagine is consistent with how he treats other clients. He conducts himself professionally, yet is personable and likable. His advice is reasonable and assured. He is very responsive. I did not ever feel neglected. Mr. Kent was usually the one contacting me, rather than the other way around. Overall, I felt confident throughout the process that Mr. Kent is an attorney who would look out for my best interest.

Aggressive Knowdedgeable Successful

I hired Jeff after an officer arrested me for a verbal altercation outside a restaurant. The cops were overly aggressive and didn't ask questions but just arrested and charged me with Reckless Conduct. Jeff was a former prosecutor in Chicago Cook County so the judge knew him and he fought to not on...ly get the charge overturned and a ruling that meant not guilty so I could get it expunged but he was helpful and understood the process throughout. I'd strongly recommend Jeff to anyone in Chicago who needs a good attorney
