Timothy Patrick Kelly

Mr. Kelly is truly an amazing attorney. I have never been involved in a criminal incident in my entire life, but when faced with Felony charges, Mr. Kelly was able to negotiate with the deputy prosecutor assigned to my case and significantly reduce the charges against me. He is an honest attorney who... has been a defense lawyer in the area for 15 years. Everyone in the local area knows who he is. I was required to complete a number of different actions within the Kitsap County Court system, and when each office I dealt with asked who my lawyer was the response was always the same when I gave them Tim Kelly’s name. “Tim! I know Tim!” He has a repertoire with the Kitsap County Prosecutor’s office, as he has worked with the deputy prosecutor charging me for 15 years. He is also very familiar with the defense attorneys within the Kitsap County Defenders office. Mr. Kelly knew the defender initially assigned to my case as well as that defender’s qualifications and experience. He is encouraging, he doesn’t judge, and he allows you complete freedom to express yourself, your concerns, your anxiety, and your anger towards the confusion and chaos surrounding your situation. He is compassionate, and at your service. He works for YOU. Mr. Kelly was always available, and returned my emails the same day. He always had appointment space for me to meet with him. He was incredibly kind to both my young children when I was force to bring them with me to meetings. He had paper, pens, and a gentle demeanor to put them at ease while he updated me on my case. He also kept me calm, and clearly explained the process I was going through, as well as explained what to expect with each court date. (All the way up until the final district court date, which left me with a slap on the hand and a dismissal in two years!) In summary, Mr. Kelly is extremely well known and respected within the entire Kitsap County court system. Mr. Kelly is available around the clock, and he works for you. Mr. Kelly is compassionate, and honest. He puts your mind at ease and educates you as he walks you through the entire criminal process to, in my case, an extremely favorable end. I would highly recommend Tim Kelly as an attorney and I will always be thankful for what he quickly accomplish for me.

I was rightfully charged with a minor criminal offense based on my own poor decision making. Although a minor offense, a charge on my record could interfere with possible job opportunities. I want to make sure I kept my options open and did not limit myself so I contacted Tim Kelly based on reviews... I read. What was most refreshing was Mr. Kelly's availability. You could always get a hold of him via phone or through email. The initial consultation was thoughtful and provided me with the confidence to move forward. My charge was so minor that there are built-in systems already in place to have the issue completely dismissed if a civil remedy is available. This requires filing the right paperwork with the right people. Without the need for a full retainer, Mr. Kelly and I were able to work out a deal that allowed me to save some money by doing some of the leg work myself. I really appreciated Mr. Kelly's willingness to find a solution that worked best for both of us. The end result is I had an arraignment that was only a formality. Reason being, is the case was already dismissed. I stood in front of the judge for less than 2 minutes. I was thanked by the judge and the prosecuting attorney for taking care of the issue both "professionally and in a timely manner." Wow! I was paid a compliment thanks to the help and guidance of Timothy Kelly. Great guy, easy to talk to, knowledgeable and available. I highly recommend Tim Kelly.
