Emergency Legal Services Came Through!

I was in desperate need of a lawyer. I had a hearing set for 9:00 a.m. the next day, but stupidly waited until the last minute to try to get a lawyer. I did a google search for lawyers and found Kurt Smith's website where it stated that Mr. Smith was available at all times. I submitted a request t...hrough the website and crossed my fingers. I didn't have a lot of hope though because it was about 1:00 in the morning. I was shocked to receive a phone call about a half hour later from Mr. Smith himself. He gave me a phone consultation, thoroughly reviewed my case, and gave me an assessment of where I was in the case and what I needed from that point. I was so impressed, I retained him on the spot. But the best part was that when I showed up the next morning, Mr. Smith was right there waiting for me with a big smile. I was shocked to learn that he had stayed up the rest of the night and wrote all of the paper I needed to proceed in Court the next day, filed them with the Court, and then faxed them to the judge. I was even more amazed when I learned that the judge actually read Mr. Smith's papers, praised him for his hard work, and had fully considered everything Mr. Smith had to say both in his papers and in person. I was shocked when I walked out of the courtroom having won! I thought I was dead in the water. The judge ordered my ex to return the child to my custody immediately. Thanks Kurt! I couldn't have done it without you!

I HAVE A LITTLE GIRL!!!

I was referred to Smith Legal Group by a co-worker who had previously used their services. My co-worker told me that Kurt Smith was legit and would treat me right. I can honestly say that now that I have reached the end of my case, I was not disappointed!!! I hired Smith Legal Group to help me wit...h my adoption case. These guys knew how to get it done quickly and efficiently. My case was a little bit tough because the father changed his mind about letting me adopt the child several times throughout the process. However, Kurt Smith never gave up and was able to work with both the father and the court system to get the issue resolved and to cool tempers to avoid the case blowing up. Thanks to Mr. Smith's hard work, I can finally say that the little girl I have been raising is all mine (and my wife's!) I will always be grateful to Kurt Smith for making us a family. To hear my little girl call me daddy is the best feeling I have ever had.

Not your Typical Attorney- In a great way

First let me start this review by saying I have one of the toughest cases to under take. Not only am I up against big names in the legal industry that do not pay legal fees- but are extremely experienced. I have retained some of the most well known senior attorneys in custody matters prior and NONE... of them have compared to Kurt Smith. Kurt is patient, kind, knowledgeable, grounded and genuine. He is not afraid of hard work and tough cases. Kurt catches things and views things other high- priced attorneys could not. I have unfortunately read my share of pleadings and Kurt's writing talent is superior to any attorney I have read. Not only is he the most ethical lawyer I have encountered- but his team Mark and Terri are amazing as well. Mark Anderson is an outstanding trial attorney. He is so well read and takes the time to know every detail and prepare. Terri, Kurt's paralegal is hard working, brilliant and dedicated. The amount of time and care she has devoted to my children and I's cause will never be forgotten and forever appreciated. This firm CARES about much more than taking your next retainer payment. They are the "good guys" in what has become a very lost and troubling family court system in Nevada.

Great Divorce Attorney!!!

I live outside of the United States but my wife lives in Nevada. I was in need of a Divorce, but I didn't want to spend an arm and a leg to get it done. I found Attorney Smith on line and contacted his office. Mr. Smith was kind enough to give me a free consultation over the phone. He explained m...y legal rights, what needed to happen in order for me to be divorced, and how he could help me. Mr. Smith gave me payment options and let me choose the payment plan that I thought was best. I really appreciated that! However, what I was most impressed with was that Mr. Smith and his team delivered exactly the service that was promised by Mr. Smith. The process went like clockwork and without a hitch. I never worried about a thing because Mr. Smith's staff kept me updated every step of the way. The whole process took far less time than I imagined (but within the timeframe quoted by Mr. Smith) and cost far less than I dared hope (but exactly what Mr. Smith told me it would cost.) I couldn't be more pleased. I would highly recommend Mr. Smith and his team. They are top notch!

Best Attorney Ever!

I had some pretty severe legal issues and hired a big name lawyer here in town. He was worthless. Then I hired Mr. Smith. Not only did he run circles around my last lawyer, he completely finessed the system, got me minimum consequences for the issues that I had, kept me from getting into additiona...l trouble, and worked legal magic like I have never seen before. I would definitely hire Kurt Smith for any case that he was willing to take for me. He was more than just an attorney for me. He became a friend.
