BEST ATTORNEY IN AMARILLO

Mr. Hill's legal advice and representation was professional, knowledgeable and hardworking. He always returned my phone calls in a timely manner, keeping me updated on the status of my case. My daughter and I have both been pleased with the outcome of our court cases and consider him as our attorney.... We are grateful to know him and will keep him on speed dial as he will continue to handle all our legal needs. I know seeking legal representation from this law firm will benefit you as well.

Excellent advice

I called Jeff after the local sheriffs department invited me to "come in and answer a few questions". Prior to going in, I told Jeff exactly what had happened on the evening in question. Admittedly, a couple of my actions would easily be considered and charged as criminal behavior without any proof, ...other than my word against his. Jeff listened to my story and gave me solid advice on how to proceed with answering the deputy's questions. After visiting with the officer on the case, I found out that they were pursuing 3 felony charges against me. I followed Jeff's advice, telling the cops the same story that I had told him. It helped my case greatly that my accuser embellished his side of the story quite a bit, and I was able to provide proof of his lies via text messages between myself and my accuser. Of course I was tempted to not be fully honest in telling my story, I was also tempted to dispose of a piece of evidence that could incriminate me. I presented my concerns to Jeff, and he encouraged me to tell the truth and not corrupt my case by turning misdemeanor charges into felony charges by disposing of evidence. The felony charges were dropped, and the lesser misdemeanor charges have not been pursued by the sheriffs office, if they are, I will be giving Jeff a call. I realize that not all situations work out as ideally as mine did, with only a phone consultation from a lawyer. After one hour talking to Jeff, I had enough faith in his ability to represent me and do the best he could in the situation that I had gotten myself into. Having never been in legal trouble before, I didn't know what could or would happen, but Jeff talked me through how it would work if arrested, how to bond out, etc. Thank you Jeff !!

Beyond excellent

When first speaking with Jeffery. I was so nervous and had no idea how to deal with what had just happened. Almost thinking i wasn’t going too be able to escape the state of texas when i live in California. He assured me that he was going to fight hard, told me i was able to fly back home and promis...ed to get my case dismissed. Which he did!! Jeffery is very good at returning any questions or concerns you might have during your case. I highly recommended him! Great individual, great knowledge and very understanding! Thanks Jeffery!!

A True Blessing

Jeff went above and beyond to help resolve my case and get me released from jail in under 2 weeks which is almost unheard of!! Not only that he provided me with options that I didn't even know were a possibility for my plea! He made me feel like he truly cared about me as a person in my most desper...ate time of need, not like I was just another criminal or like I was just a paycheck. When we went to court he even made sure that everyone there, from the sheriff all the way to the judge, understood that I am hard of hearing and did not have my hearing aids...that tiny act showed worlds about his character. Jeff Hill is truly a blessing and restored my faith in the legal system!

"Given that Jeff has worked on both sides of the fence as a prosecutor and a defense lawyer, he knows the law and knows the local players. More importantly, he puts that knowledge to good use -- he genuinely works hard for his clients and gets good results because of it. I have recommended him to people in need of good representation in the past, and I wouldn't hesitate to do so again in the future."
