Knowledgeable, Effective and

Jeff worked with me hand-in-hand to address an excessive charge on a driving misdemeanor. He helped me navigate my choices, which ultimately led to a plea bargain to an infraction, and a minimal fine. You get what you pay for when it comes to legal representation. Jeff is excellent!

Excellent representation!

A friend recommended Jeff, and she told me another friend had recommended him to her. Now I would like to strongly recommend him as well! He represented my son, and everything about him was incredibly professional. He was a great listener, excellent communicator, was honest and realistic, and followe...d through with everything he said he would do. He was proactive, and in our case a consensus builder. He worked with all of the attorneys involved, and one of them gave credit to JEFF for leading the way to a satisfactory resolution. I have retained 7 attorneys so far for business, family law, and now for a regrettable mistake made by my child. Jeff is the hardest working and most honest that I've encountered. Don't hesitate - hire him if you need the best in defense work!

Worth It

If you are here reviewing lawyers it more then likely means you are in a situation you are needing legal help and considering the best value for your hard earned money, so I hope my review helps your decision. There are many words that can be used to describe Jeff Staples, another review said "youthf...ulness" which is true, but, confident, knowledgeable and experienced work better. If I had to use one word to describe Mr. Staples services it is Worth It. Of course your situation is unique to you and you may be wondering, should I go it alone or is it worth parting with my hard earned money. Only you can answer that. But you are at least putting in the research to find someone that will help your situation, so that likely means you are wondering if the services you get are worth it. In my case, hands down, without a doubt, yes! Your case? Who knows. But you are already reading reviews, and at this point it can't hurt to call him and find out for yourself. Although I am sorry for your legal troubles, I do hope these few words about my experience with Jeff Staples helps you decide what is best for you and I believe if you choose Mr. Staples you too will walk away believing he was worth it.

Great Communication

Very strong communicator and a clear understanding in law. He is from a family of lawyers so he knows what he is talking about. Reasonable rates and an air of confidence. Don't let his youthfulness fool you, he is great.

Great overall experience with Jeff!

When I was in jail Jeff showed up within an hour of us contacting him. He was very straight to the point and very knowledgeable about my situation. He also had a very reasonable retainer, therefore I decided to hire him as my attorney. I had some special needs as far as extra court dates to be able ...to go out of town, he always made a point to take care of those needs in a very timely manner. Anytime I had questions about what was going on he had answers. I highly recommend Jeff to others and would hire him again if I found myself in need of legal defense.
