Thankful to have him on my side!

I hired Attny Kelly Stairs for an issue I was having when a plumber’s negligence caused a sewage spill underneath my home. Having never been in such a situation I wanted to make sure I didn’t make any missteps in the way I handled things. Kelly was courteous, his advice was valuable and fair and ulti...mately I was able to be fully reimbursed by the plumber for all damages with just a demand letter and without going to small claims. Even though Kelly works from out of town resolution was swift. He is quick to respond to texts and calls, and quick in drafting things like a demand letter and settlement statement. I 100% recommend him.

Very knowledgeable

Mr. Stairs is a very friendly helpful but most importantly knowledgeable attorney. I have used his services several times and will again in the future.

Excellent Service and Representation

Kelly Dean Stairs was hired to assist me with a Small Claims Lawsuit against Southwest Airlines. First of all, I found Attorney Stairs to be professional, patient, thorough, and extremely knowledgeable regarding my legal matter. I felt he went over-and-above what I needed in this case and in fact, in...structed me on another legal matter without any additional charge; even though, it had nothing to do with the case for which I initially hired him. Attorney Stairs completed all the legal forms to be filed in Small Claims Court Proceeding, fully instructed me on what to do; briefed me on the contingencies, and how to handle any contacts or calls from the Defendant's Attorney in my case. I was quite impressed with this attorney how he interacted with me as a prospective client, then as a client, and afterwards. I feel so blessed to have him on my side, representing me.

Couldn't be Better

Working with Dean Stairs was truly a liberating and calming experience. From the outset of our Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing, Dean was a pillar of reassurance during those very stressful times. His knowledge, experience, and personal attention were superb. Whenever we had a question, he unfailingly re...sponded to phone calls and emails on the same day. He was not just interested in "the case;" he was (is) interested in us. Our highest recommendation.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
