This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Works wonders

Best lawyer I have ever had. I recommend him to you.. I rent to trail against a cop.. if it wasn't for Kyle I would more then likely still be sitting in jail and waiting to get sentenced to prison for something I didnt not do.. luckly Kyle proved to the jury that I was not anywhere around the area

Peace of mind

Before I was represented by Kyle Smith, I felt vulnerable to the L and I system. Any mistakes they made or delays in response on their part was costing me time and causing me stress. After three months of trying to deal with this on my own I decided I needed representation. Kyle took my case and hel...ped to guide me and L and I all the way through to the other side of this case. My stress level went down and I felt protected by the law. Kyle has a support team that represents him well. I was treated with respect by both his assistant and his secretary. In the end, I received a settlement that was slightly more than I had expected and I knew that my attorney was willing to put up a fight for me. I would hire him again in heartbeat. Thank you Kyle Smith, John and Diana.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
