Redeemed my chaos

Kevin became my life saving ring in the deep legal waters I fell into, learning that my personal information for my family trust was a complete fraud. Someone assigned a person/persons who would have nothing to do with me, to be my representative for my power of attorney, health directive, trustee ...apointment and was also given of my children's inheritance at my death. A no contest clause was the cherry on top! That's important to know in light of how desperate and vernerable I felt at the time I contacted Kevin. His calm and patient ear to hear was invaluable, because of my shock and pain. He quietly corrected and accurately recovered it all without the drama, and always reassured me that he would make the trust represent my/our wishes to a tee. He doesn't waste your time, and gets the job done with a very reasonable bill in the end. I was only too happy to have his check made out for the great job he did. Kevin restored my faith in thinking there really are some honest and caring attorneys out there. One really needs to know who they are hiring. He is a true professional that is committed to excellence in exicuting the understanding and application of the laws. I will always give him the credit for bringing the truth to light and securing the feature of my family and personal life. I can sleep now! Thank you, Kevin. He is the best!!

Professionalism you can Trust

Kevin Parris has assisted me and members of my family in a number of legal issues, including the disputed settlement of my father’s will and trust. As someone with little experience in legal matters and struggling with difficult family issues as well as the loss of my beloved father, I sought an atto...rney who would treat me and my loved ones with compassion while tenaciously defending our father’s wishes. Attorney Parris met these needs in every way possible. He truly cared about our best interests and represented us with the utmost professionalism, helping us to achieve the most favorable outcome we could have hoped for. Even in the most complicated and difficult legal battles, Kevin Parris can be trusted to uphold the law and support his clients in every way possible.

Work done by Kevin Parris

Kevin helped me with the sale of a property in San Diego that was owned by numerous parties and I was selling my portion. He was easy to work with, attentive and made the entire process simple. I recommend him highly

Caring, Attentive, Understanding, Professional, Courteous

First and foremost when you meet Kevin you realize he cares about your well being and really tries to understand your situation before giving you advise -- a rare trait. His advise is thorough with just enough information for you to make an informed and intelligent decision yet not so much that y...ou feel overwhelmed. He is careful in his approach and his delivery is deliberate with the sole intention of keeping you informed and comfortable. When you leave his office you feel complete, full of useful information. He gets straight to the point yet knows when to bring a little history and some real world examples into the discussion to help you understand the point. He also follows up with emails and phone calls after and between meetings making sure all your questions were answered. WOW ... how many other Attorneys do that? Kevin, answered all my questions and showed no signs of impoliteness upon answering -- no matter how ridiculous or immature some of them might have been. He also appears to be very knowledgeable in many different aspects of law which leads me to want to keep him as my private attorney, both for personal and professional needs. In fact, I have. I have chosen Kevin as my Attorney to assist me with setting up a Trust for my family and another situation which is a bit more personal. I feel blessed to have Kevin as my Attorney. Thank you for the opportunity to share. dlk
