Very helpful

Dean was great to work with. I had questions about my tenant rights as they related to my security deposit return. Dean listened to my concerns and questions and provided solid advice and guidance on the law and my rights as a tenant. We were able to get the amount that was taken out of my security d...eposit refunded in a matter of a few short weeks. I would definitely call on Dean again if needed!

ATT Dispute

Att disconnected my service (unprompted) and reconnected it charging me installation and first months fees. I spent countless hours on the phone disputing. Dean helped me file a suit in small claims court after which Att quickly settled. Dean was great to work with and I would highly recommend his p...ractice.

Above and Beyond

I'm wholly satisfied in working with Dean on a Small Claims issue. He is an excellent communicator, proactive and thoughtful. In the end we settled our claim and walked away satisfied with the outcome. Happy to recommend Dean moving forward!

Highly Recommend

Dean is phenomenal. I contacted him for assistance with a debt collection issue regarding a gym contract. Thanks to him I was able to come to a much more agreeable conclusion with the opposing party than I would have been able to on my own. I spoke with Dean on the phone about my issue and he explain...ed to me in great detail the legality of the matter, my options, as well as potential ways to proceed. Over the next few weeks I emailed Dean who was very quick to respond and give updates with how the situation was unfolding, his customer services is second to none. Even over email he did an excellent job answering any questions I had and explaining my options. I could not recommend utilizing his services highly enough. If you are in the market for an attorney look no further.

Knowledgeable and Thorough

When my roommate issues began I was so unsure of where to turn so I went through AARG in order to get assistance. One of the many recommendations was Kelly Dean Stairs Esq., and this was a blessing to me and to my family as well. From day one of reaching out to Kelly, he was prompt with communicat...ing with me. We would communicate with phone calls and emails and he would always make sure to give me any updates and I would do the same. He would make sure to address my concerns. He is extremely knowledgeable and professional. He was so patient with me during this stressful time. And he provided the assurance that I needed which was knowing the steps we would have to take in court and with our counterclaim. Throughout the negotiation process and court process he was empathetic to my situation and was always present with me. He genuinely cares about each of his clients and the situations that happen. I would recommend Kelly for everyone. If you are looking for a professional and effective attorney Kelly Dean Stairs Esq. is the number one recommendation you should go to. He provided excellent service to me and without his help I wouldn’t have been able to make it through my lawsuit. My family and I are so thankful that he gave us his time. Thank you Kelly.
