This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Glad I FIRED HIM!

Glad I fired him! If you have any serious injuries like mine, ( TBI - Traumatic Brain Injury ) do not hire this lawyer or his firm for representation. I hired Jeff after my car accident in 2021. He talked a good "game" about my case and how he'd fight for me. That was further from the truth. I sp...ent a little over a year in rehabilitation just for him to pass my case off to two different lawyers, one of which who didn't inform me of important developments like I asked. Almost filed my lawsuit in the wrong court, failed to obtain all of my medical records by the time of pre-trial and failed to tell me that for one of my trial hearings I didn't need to show up. I was hours away from waking into a court room I didn't need to be in. I would've never hired Christa on my own, she's not a fighter for tough cases and she lets her personal issues cloud her judgement towards her clients. If you want a lawyer who tells you to take the first offer because they don't feel like fighting, sure- hire him. If you want a lawyer who gives you an amount for your case, but changes 4 more times over the next 2 years and then backtracks, then sure, hire him. If you want a lawyer who tells you "You have a better chance of winning at the Casino" then sure, hire him. If you want a lawyer who can't answer questions or a lawyer who in 2 years couldn't get your vehicle fixed, made you get your own medical records, and insults you, then sure- hire him. If you want someone who respects you as a person and not just another case, find someone who specializes in your condition. I fired them once they dropped the ball. Found a lawyer who specializes in TBI and I couldn't have been happier. Not only did he do more for me and my case in 2 months than they did in 2 YEARS but he got me more than expected, had my truck fixed and I didn't have to see a court room!

I'd give Jeff a zer0 if I could

He talks a good talk, really is such a smooth talker! However, once the retainer is signed, he is more interested in working with the insurance companies than he is in working for the client. He got my hopes up for years that I would receive a 6-figure settlement and when we finally settled it was fo...r just over 10k, which didn't cover the credit card debt that I had accrued while healing and unable to work. Words cannot describe how disappointed I am that I chose to have him as my lawyer. Please learn from my mistake and go with someone else.

Car injury/ accident

We had an accident that we were not at fault but our insurance had lapsed for the first time. We were terrified that no one could help us. After talking to a friend, she highly recommend Jeffery Caffee and his network of professionals. The whole process was extremely smooth. He set everything up so w...e did not have to worry. Our claim was satisfied in about half the time I heard claims can take. The biggest thing he did that was a game changer was when the other parties insurance did not claim responsibility, he made a call and 24 hours later they changed their findings and accepted responsibility.
