I needed a lawyer to establish a Will and Trust. Went through several websites to see what lawyers in Key West would be the best to work this requirement. I chose and used Samuel Kaufman because of his outstanding website. Not only did it say his firm provided these services but the Estate Planning and Probate Administration drop-down articulated exactly the services I required. Throughout our first meeting Samuel carefully explained what was required for establishing a Will and Trust. In less than 1 week he sent me the draft to review and within another week we were going thru the document and signed. He again explained the importance of each document and what I needed to do with the Trust portion of the overall Will. He and his staff are true professionals and would highly recommend them for their legal services.

Terrible. Asked if theyre attorneys deal with landlord tenant cases, they told me NO but they can cunsult for $150. Are you kidding me either you do or you dont why would I pay you to just talk about the problem I have and have you tell me "We dont take cases like that"

Friendly and prompt service from both Mr. Kaufman and his Receptionist. I went with a friend but will be going back to conduct some business of my own too.
Mr. Kaufmann has the type of personality that puts one at-ease immediately.

Recently hired a "prosecutor" to his team, worst lawyer Ive ever dealt with!! Made false promises, said they would file motions and never did, plead to charges and did NO negotiations... Would NOT recommend to anyone...

Liar and a thief.

Sam Kaufman and his team helped me win a judgement against an unscrupulous landlord. They were very efficient and kept me updated through the whole process. I am very happy with the results and would recommend them highly to my friends and family.

Best lawyer in town

Do not hire this man he will lie and steel from you ,he is a incompetent lawyer at best and when you call him out on what he promise you in hes office he will tell you did you make me put it in writing ani i will take you yo court if you dont pay up now. He forced me to pay an extra 10k to a former lawyer under the threat of him talking legal action aginst me if i dont pay up . Even though he promises me i would not have to pay that becaus it was a frivolys clame.
Truthfully i beleve this person belongs in jail for hes actions .

Maria and the whole staff are just great!! They did what they said they were going to do and got my charged dropped...thanks for saving me ☺

Sam and Marie are the best! They treat you like family! Thank you for everything!

During a difficult legal time of my life that spanned more than six years Sam Kaufman's Law Office took great care of my case. All the way from the initial consultation to the, unanimous, "NOT GUILTY" jury verdict. Sam and his staff were caring, informative, professional and confident throughout the entire process. I was never mislead about anything regarding the legal process and always informed about the progress of my case. A special thanks to Attorney Mike Agnello as well as Maria for all your efforts in my time of need.

I have known and worked with Sam Kaufman for over 16-years since his arrival in Key West as a young public defender. From the start, Sam demonstrated a deep passion for social justice issues and has committed himself to public service is numerous ways. Sam and his team have personally represented me, my family, numerous friends and associates. He is a highly competent attorney and man of impeccable integrity who insists that his staff exemplify the highest professional standards. The Law Offices of Samuel J. Kaufman have my sincere respect and highest recommendation!

I want to commend Samuel Kaufman as an attorney, philanthropist, and outstanding men. I noticed an extremely fraudulent, anonymous evaluation. Nothing in it is true. I personally use Mr. Kaufman as my attorney and couldn't be more satisfied.

My husband and I have been pleased to consult with Samuel J. Kaufman and his team. They have been professional and knowledgeable. We have been very grateful for their assistance with a very difficult legal situation.

Sam Kauffman is an extremely knowledgeable attorney who is also very honest, generous, philanthropic person. He handled my family's complex and sensitive estate planning process with utmost professionalism, grace and legal skill. As a result, we are very pleased that he also now provides legal counsel for our family-owned business. Sam exemplifies very high ethical standards both through his work at the law firm and in his generous charitable volunteer work in the community. If you're looking for an attorney that really listens, is totally professional, is kind, and is excellent and very experienced at what he does, Sam Kauffman is your guy.

I was extremely impressed with the experience, professionalism and integrity of Sam Kaufman and his entire staff during a very difficult lawsuit in which I was unfortunately involved. It's very comforting knowing that Sam and his staff are here in Key West if I should ever need the services of an attorney again.

I have had the pleasure of working with Samuel J Kaufman and his firm on a few occasions. Sam helped me navigate and understand a tricky legal situation, making sure I understood each step of the way what was happening. Sam and his team also helped me with my estate planning, which is not exactly a fun thing to think about. But Sam made it a great experience!

Do not use this man or his firm no matter what. he is a liar and a sham. to say the least he is incompetent. but, there is so much more. you will find yourself trying to sue him for malpractice. at which point he will delay and stall so as to cause you to spend thousands more on legal fees you will never recover. he will lie and say he is an expert in areas he is not. he will charge you to do research in areas he says are important to your case. but, he will still no nothing about the laws or cases which he was to research. it will be obvious, he did no such research. he will involve attorneys at other firms without your permission and charge you thousands for it. he will not depose the witness for your case and if you force him to. he will instead casually talk to them the day before court. he will never be prepared. the judges hate and yell at him. because he isnt prepared he will call witnesses that do you so much damage you will loose the case. there is more and we will list it all later. we will also post using other forms of media. later we will leave contact info for us and links to sights that show more proof. please do not ever trust this man. samuel j kaufman
