Our five person team including attorney, Suzanna Johnson, who is licensed both in Florida and Texas are adept in assisting our clients in what is clearly a very stressful time.

Not bad, too expensive for my result
Jeff did an average job representing me in a criminal case where I felt that I was in good hands. I believed we would disprove the charges in court but instead some of my evidence was entered improperly and thrown out. I had to plea guilty to a lesser charge. People make mistakes, I know and have mov...
"Richard" - thank you for leaving a comment. As I have not represented someone with this name in a number of years I am having trouble responding to this comment. As you know, any agreement or result leading to reduction of an actual higher charge required YOUR agreement. I will never and would never allow a client to plead guilty without their consent. We work hard to get the best possible outcomes for all clients. The outcomes are often case specific and based on the allegations and the facts. No evidence was "entered improperly" and "thrown out" in an agreement that results in the reduction of an offense. Please feel free to call me and discuss your concerns. 979-549-0700. Best regards.

Jeff's has the innate ability to grasp the tenor and approach necessary with each differing legal matter. He is excellent at listening to his clients, understanding their individual needs, and then working diligently to accommodate those needs. While Jeff is an outstanding lawyer, he is even a finer person and I believe this speaks volumes about his character. I am honored to call Jeff a friend and I owe much of my success as a lawyer to the lessons and advice given to me by Jeff over the years."
"I've known Jeff for over 20 years. He is extremely smart, diligent and a very talented trial lawyer. He achieves outstanding results for his clients."
