I hired Jesse for a defamation case. He went above and beyond. He got me the result I wanted, explained everything to me and has 17 years or so of experience in cases. His experience allowed us to get the result we wanted. I can not recommend this guy enough! He’s straight and to the point. He removes emotion and helps you understand what is reasonable. Thank you Jesse and the Kent Law Group

FAKE REVIEW. I'm always happy to talk to clients and discuss any concerns they may have. But I'm unable to discuss anything with this 'reviewer' because they did not have the courage to let me or anyone else know who they are or why they saw fit to post this review. If you change your mind, feel free to call me - I'm more than happy to speak with you directly about any concerns you may have.

I am grateful for Jesse's guidance and representation. From the beginning to the end of the case he was attentive, responsive and clear in explaining every step. He is skilled in the courtroom and had a clear strategy that led us to win the case. I highly recommend Jesse to anyone who is looking for a great attorney!

Chris, you were a great client and a pleasure to work with. You and your company, Legal Slides, put together some great trial exhibits do terrific work. I'm glad we got a great outcome for you here and I'm glad you didn't have to settle for the lies and misdirection from your old client. If I can do anything for your in the future feel free to call me. I'm always happy to help good people and good clients.

A Warning About The Kent Law Group If I could give a negative star rating, The Kent Law Group would undoubtedly earn it. I urge potential clients to look beyond the glowing reviews and consider the accounts of unprofessional conduct. My experience reveals Mr. Kent to be a bully, whose harassment left me feeling threatened and extremely uncomfortable. Despite my usual reluctance to write reviews, I feel compelled to share my appalling experience to protect others. Unprofessional Conduct and Communication Breakdown I retained Mr. Kent for an automobile accident case. While the initial phase was acceptable, his communication quickly deteriorated. He became abrupt and dismissive, seeming to demand brief, incomplete answers to his questions. When I addressed this, his responses were facetious and condescending. His demeanor continued to be disrespectful, treating me as if I were uneducated and attempting to speak down to me. To navigate this increasingly stressful situation, I brought in a family member with expertise in corporate insurance to help mediate our interactions. It was immediately apparent that Mr. Kent's communication style shifted dramatically when speaking with my MALE family member; he became professional, amiable, and genuinely collaborative. My family member recognized this change and confronted him, reminding Mr. Kent that he worked for me, a point Mr. Kent disputed. My family member also provided insights into insurance laws and policy limits, explaining what I could legitimately seek from the insurance company, information Mr. Kent consistently downplayed, insisting the case was only worth the minimum. This confirmed my impression that his service aimed for the bare minimum. Ultimately, my family member asserted that the final decision on the demand was mine to make. Abrupt Withdrawal and Financial Implications Following this confrontation, Mr. Kent abruptly withdrew from my case and promptly placed an astronomical 40% lien on any future settlement. This lien meant that any subsequent attorney I hired would struggle to receive their full fees, making it incredibly difficult to find new representation willing to take on the case given Mr. Kent's exorbitant claim. Even after withdrawing, he continued to email me, inexplicably asking if I wanted him to finish the case, a bizarre request given his negative comments about my case while he was still my attorney. It became clear that Mr. Kent's primary goal was to settle my case for a mere $25,000, from which he would take 40%, leaving me to cover all unpaid medical expenses with the remaining balance. This financial motive, coupled with his egotistical and condescending attitude, formed the core of our disagreement. Taking Control and Final Outcome Believing I was left in an impossible situation, I ended up settling the case on my own. I saw to it that Mr. Kent received his 40% fee based on the $25,000 that HE was willing to settle for, while I ultimately secured the amount I had initially asked him to negotiate for. While I won't explicitly tell you not to hire him, I can unequivocally state that I will NEVER hire Mr. Kent again, nor would I EVER recommend him to anyone, not even my worst enemy. Have a good day.

READER BEWARE: this is not an accurate representation of the facts of this case. All cases are different and all advice from my office is tailored to the precise facts and applicable legal issues of your case. Where a client's opinion about a case differs from reality, I have found it best to allow the client to pursue the matter on their own rather when the client so chooses. No action was taken in this case that was impermissible and this client was given the same treatment I give all clients - I was direct, honest, straight forward and candid about everything. I was clear to advise this client about all possible outcomes and all possible negative outcomes. In the end, this client elected to forego my legal counsel and I'm happy she felt as though her own negotiations achieved the result she sought, but the facts tell a somewhat different story. I will never 'stroke egos" in my practice - my policy and that of my associates is to be direct and honest with each client, even when clients are demeaning and condescending and rude to me and my staff. My commitment is to be honest, even if that means the client will ultimately part ways with my office or retain alternate counsel.

Mr. Kent was a pleasure to work with. He is no-nonsense, doesn't waste anyone's time, and is very concise in all matters. Even from the initial consultation, he made sure to be very clear about what to expect from him, from the court, and what he'd need from me. If you need a strong attorney for Small Claims (Magistrate Court), I highly recommend Jesse Kent's services.

Response from owner

Thanks, Trevor. It was a pleasure to work with you on this and I'm glad we could get a good resolution at trial for you. If you need anything in the future feel free to call me.

I can't recommend Jessie Kent highly enough! From the start, his experience and efficiency were evident, making what could have been a stressful process much more manageable. He was always well-prepared, clear in his communication, and confident in his approach, which gave me confidence. His professionalism and knowledge made all the difference, and I truly appreciated his ability to navigate everything seamlessly.

Response from owner

Glad I could help and I'm happy we got a good resolution for you!

I am from out of state and I had an issue with a party that lived in GA. I searched for about 3 days for a small claims lawyer, and Jess and the Kent Law Group kept showing up. I finally reached out; he was kind enough to speak about my case in depth while providing me with good info. Hiring a lawyer and one that is out of state is a little nerve-racking, but Jess made it easy. He was instrumental in finding a solution that furthered the case and ultimately finished it acceptably. He listened, and I never felt he was trying to get more money from me.

Response from owner

Glad I could help, and thanks for the kind words. I enjoyed working with you. Always happy to help if you need anything in the future!

I cannot recommend The Kent Law Group and Jesse Kent highly enough. From the moment I reached out to them regarding my lawsuit against a contractor who performed shoddy work on my home and refused to address the issue, Jesse and his team demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a genuine commitment to achieving justice. Unlike other firms that might push for quick settlement, Jesse confidently guided me through the process when the defendant chose to take the case to trial. His courtroom strategy was sharp, and his ability to present the facts in a compelling way was impressive. Watching him handily defeat the defendant's attorney and secure a favorable verdict for me was a testament to his skill and dedication. Throughout the process, Jesse maintained clear communication, keeping me informed and every step of the way and I always felt like my case was in the best hands possible. If you’re looking for a legal team that will fight for you with integrity, determination, and unmatched expertise, look no further than The Kent Law Group. They turned a very stressful situation into a victorious one, and I am incredibly grateful for their hard work.

Response from owner

Thanks for kind words Mr. Yaro. It was a pleasure working with you and I'm glad we were able to get a favorable outcome for you. If I can help with anything in the future feel free to call me!

I hired Mr.Kent to represent me in a civil case in which I was suing a contractor that had done work on my home but did not complete the work he was fully paid for. When I tell you that Mr. Kent did an amazing job representing me in court. He stayed in contact with me with updates about my case and he made sure that I was informed of my responsibilities and what I needed to bring to court. He made the entire experience very easy for me to navigate. With his assistance, I was able to win my case. I’m forever grateful for his expertise and support

Response from owner

Very happy to help you. I'm glad we got a good outcome in this one and I'm sorry you had to deal with that terrible contractor. Call in the future if I can help with anything!

Jesse helped me deal with a problematic tenant after my first attempt at eviction failed. Jesse got it done in a timely manner and also was able to secure a judgement for tenant to pay for legal representation since the Judge finally agreed it was a frivolous case. He presented my case in court and I was happy to have him on my side.

Response from owner

Happy to help, Tim. Glad we got a good outcome. Hopefully you won't have to deal with this guy any more. Let me know if I can help with anything in the future.

Called to inquire about a couple things. Jesse went well above and beyond. He gave me thorough advice on how he would proceed and even offered me good strategy tips. All while being 100% aware my particular case wasn't going to earn him any money. A rare find.

Response from owner

Happy to help, Mr. Cole. I'm blunt and honest with clients and potential clients - I don't want anyone hiring me if it doesn't make good financial sense for them to do so. I hope you find the links and documents I shared with you useful, and I strongly encourage you to file that suit on your own. Of course, if you need my help, feel free to call me.

Jesse was the best lawyer, I could not have asked for more. I couldn’t be more happy with the outcome of my case. I will certainly hire him again if I ever need a lawyer as he made the whole process seamless for me. I could tell he was very experienced as his responses were prompt, he took the time to offer me explanations to the elements I didn’t understand and he was patient in understanding the unique details of my case. He is a solid, grounded, man of principle, deeply rooted in values and an expert in the law. He yielded a swift sword when the facts were collected, strategically aligned and the timing was perfect. I’m grateful to him and what he accomplished for me.

Response from owner

Thanks for the kind words, Denise! I enjoyed working with you and helping you through this troubling issue. Thankfully, the law was very favorable for you and we were able to negotiate a great resolution to this without ever having to go to trial. I always enjoy working with good, kind and reasonable clients like you. If I can ever help with anything in the future, of if you ever have legal concerns I can help with, please feel free to call!

Jesse defended my business partner in lawsuit where the other party was trying to bully us with litigation. Despite their best efforts Jesse Kent humbled them with unparalleled knowledge of the law and a closing argument that felt like it was from a movie. I highly recommend Mr. Kent's services and will call him first in the event someone else try to bully us in the future.

Response from owner

I'm happy we were able to get a good outcome on this. I know it's difficult to face a lawsuit, let alone a completely frivolous one. It was a pleasure to represent you guys, and I'm glad the law clearly favored your position. Feel free to call me if I can help with anything in the future. Be well!
