Wow absolutely phenomenal. I applaud you sir!!!

I have never had such a honest, informative and free consultation on the spot. Talk about a Lawyer that is really cares and helps you out with information and his take of your case. I really felt like I was talking to a honest person he could have easily taken my case and made a easy 10k in one day ...to represent me at my EEOC mediation but he was truthful and honest and didn’t try to make a quick buck like every other attorney I talked too. I knew my scheduled mediation with my former employer was canceled and rescheduled this morning for a reason!!! It was because I needed to talk to someone that someone was Jeffery Kmoch.I probably would’ve lost my case in mediation if I had not talked to Jeff. Wow wow wow Thank you so much Jeffery and like it says on his web page Free consultation. I definitely owe you Dinner sir if all goes well at my mediation. Thank you so much for your time and sharing your thoughts on my case.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
