Don't bother with any other attorney!
Attorney Thomas Kelley is an absolute lifesaver, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! In 2019, I was arrested for a second-degree felony possession of a controlled substance after being caught with two pot brownies while heading back to Florida for college. A couple of months ago, I was extradit...

Yes, this is the lawyer you are looking for!

Minor in Possession charge
About a year and 7 months ago when I was a minor, I received an MIP. Tom Kelley represented my case of pleading no contest.

"Tom is my go to resource when I need assistance on a criminal matter. As a former prosecutor and current defense lawyer, he has superior knowledge of how the system works."
"Tom Kelley has experience from both sides of a criminal matter giving him an important insight most criminal attorneys lack. He is an aggressive criminal defense lawyer that really cares about his clients. I highly recommend him!"
"Tom is an excellent young lawyer. I watched him progress as a trial lawyer during his tenure with the Orange County and Jefferson County District Attorneys' offices. Last year, we tried a felony case against each other (which he won) and his tenor with the jury and skill at questioning witnesses was quite impressive. As a result, our firm hired him away from the DA's office and he is now working with citizens accused of crimes to make sure they have the best defense. In terms of endorsing Tom, we have - as you say - put our money where our mouth is."
