Jeffrey D. Kent
There are a lot of lawyers in Southern CA, but there is no lawyer anywhere like Jeff Kent. He is truly the best of the best. He's the opposite of the types of attorneys that want all your money and do only the minimum amount of work. Jeff Kent represented my daughter in court on multiple occasions and provided her with not only expert legal advice, but with caring, fatherly, worldly advice that has helped her advance in life considerably.

He always went the extra mile for us at every critical juncture in our legal journey - he ran loops around any previous attorneys I have used or known. He cares about people first and foremost. If you are from out of state and have a loved one that needs help in California - you can rest assured knowing Jeff Kent is the best resource you can find for them.

This 5-star review is way past due. I believe it was back in 2001 when I first got myself into quite a bit of trouble, they were charging me with multiple felonies. This was out of North Court they were trying to give me three years in State prison, I ended up doing community service... About eight years later again I forgot how to act right in ended up in another bad situation legally. This time it was with drugs and burglaries and I did the minimal amount of time legally possible I think it was 6 months. Honestly it should have been way more.... Let's skip forward to around 2015 where I

I would highly recommend Jeffrey D. Kent for his legal expertise and perseverance. He never stopped fighting for us even with all the delays caused by COVID-19. Not only did he resolve our case to non-criminal but he closed it prior to the courts trying to push it out yet another month.
From the moment we met with him, he relieved our stress, gave us positive ways to help our case and closed it to our advantage. We will always be grateful for everything that he did for our son. As a mother, I am grateful that I found the right attorney, Mr. Jeffrey Kent, to trust with my son’s case. With endless

I was very fortunate to have Jeffrey D Kent as my Defense Attorney. My DUI case was very complicated and without Jeffrey D Kent things absolutely would have been much, much worse. I believe being a defense attorney is definitely one of the most complicated professions there is. Jeffrey D Kent is a very gifted and talented defense attorney. I'm very grateful for all the things Jeffrey D Kent accomplished in my very difficult case. I know that without all the things that Jeff accomplished for me, I wouldn't be able to be writing this letter of gratitude.
THANK YOU SINCERELY

When in trouble with the law it is a true fact that you will require a great criminal law defense attorney such as Mr. Kent! His knowledge of criminal law is deep and immense. He is indeed a certified criminal law specialist. I have consulted with his firm for my immigration clients on many occasions! He is indeed a super attorney! Highly recommended!

Words can't describe how satisfied I am with Jeff Kent's services. I interviewed maybe 10 other lawyers before going with him because he simply was more knowledgeable than the rest and also made you feel at ease when you think your life is about to get flipped upside down. He saved me from a felony charge along with a probation violation and now I can fulfill my daily responsibilities and live life normally again.

What more could we have asked for. On point all the way! Fair and reasonable price, attentive attorney who follow through with what he says he is going to do, held our hand the entire time (which is what we needed). Legal troubles over without a day in jail. Amazing.
Thank you so much!!!!!

Yes... WooHoo...

Jeff Kent nailed it.
A year ago I was overwhelmed with legal trouble and confusion on what I could do next to better my situation. That all changed the day I walked into his office. I worked with him during a difficult time in my life and he was not only very professional and vastly informative, he was also there to be a personal mentor in a time when I desperately needed guidance. I always felt Jeff truly cared about me. Not just winning the case. Jeff is a sincere and hard-fighting attorney who will stand with you to guide you through the legal issues you have. Don

Thank you Jeff! A friend of mine got into some trouble, and had a few issues with her legal paperwork. She was very emotional, and very nervous. I happened to google lawyers, and Jeff's number came up. He was compassionate, gracious and competent. The issue was resolved in a matter of minutes. He did not have to take the time to help, but did anyway. I would recommend him based on our conversation. He made the experience less traumatic for my friend. I'm very appreciative. If you're reading this, and are currently seeking out a lawyer I would give him a call. Based on prior reviews

Jeff came through for me big time. Things could have gone a completely different dirrection for me had I not retained his services. I was on probation for an incident that took place nearly 5 years ago, and because of that I could have been in some serious trouble after being involved in a minor incident which violated that probation agreement. After many months of uncertainty Jeff was eventually able to get the case dismissed as well as the probation violation. He could have easily tried to reach a plea agreement and be done with my case, but instead he fought for me for nearly a year, and in

Jeffrey Kent handled my case really well, I was going through a rough time and he kept everything straight forward and provided his honest opinion from the very beginning. He got me a great deal and I was happy with the end results.

He is well known in the courts for his outstanding performance and has good relationship with everyone which definitely can be very beneficial. Thank you Jeff!

Jeff Kent helped my grown son many, many times in the past. His knowledge of the law and how it WORKS FOR EVERYONE is like on The Good Wife. His former colleague for many years, Mike Mc Donnell was also off the chart is representation in the past for my son.

I'd recommend both. Not sure if Mike is still in practice in La Habra or not but think I'll look into it just for the heck of it

They are the security blanket my son needed.

Thank you, Melody Nall Alberts
