Wizard in Wizard of Oz

Kelton VonGonten is the Wizard in Wizard of Oz Moma Odie in Princes and The Frog. The Fairy godmother in Cinderella.  Unfortunately, life has it that sometimes we find ourselves needling legal assistance. He was able to do the impossible at lighting speed! Collin County Courts are kno...w for their glacier speed. Yet, this situation needed to be taken care of quickly and quietly. Kelton and his team were able to fix everything with a wave of a magical wand! I am forever grateful for his honesty,  ability understand the situation without judgment.  Keltin took my worst nightmare and make it all better.  Also note that Kelton is fantastic with text communication.  He is so easy to communicate with and understanding and kind. By far if shopping for an attorney this is your guy. Stop shopping you will not be disappointed.

A defense attorney that truly cares

Keltin did everything he could for my Dad and my family. The case started at a loss but he still tried to get the least sentencing possible. Although attorneys prioritize making their name known, Keltin pays more attending to doing what's best for his client and their family. We were well informed th...roughout the process and he was very understanding and patient with all our inquires. The best choice for a Criminal Defense Attorney in our area! Thank you for doing all you did, Keltin!

Couldn't have asked for anyone better to fight for me!

Working with Keltin VonGonten from the Criminal Defense Attorney's at Hurley & Guinn has created the best outcome for my case! I couldn't thank him enough for working so diligently with the state and debating the best possible result for my case. Keltin was able to clearly explain information about t...his process and frequently update me on how things were going. He also responds very fast and is willing to help out with any questions /needs you might have in relation to your case. Furthermore, he was also able to continually reassure me that things were going swiftly and would continue to do so if I were to follow through with the actions advised of me.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I worked on a DWI case with Keltin when we were both Student Attorneys in law school. He confidently prepared for trial as the offer we received from the prosecutor was not cutting it. After hours and hours of preparing for a suppression hearing and Keltin's impressive attention to detail which unveiled several problems in the case, the prosecutor finally dismissed the DWI charge and gave our client a reasonable and fair offer. Keltin is extremely passionate about criminal defense and will evaluate each case as thoroughly as he did this one."
