I want to thank everyone so much. When I decided to convert my long term primary residents to a rental property I never dreamed how complicated it would be. Not only did they help me resolve my family issues (my mother lived with me over 20 years and felt she was part property owner), dealt with the lender (needed a real estate loan instead of home mortgage) and also found a title company to provide title insurance and a clear title. Thank you for sticking with me and getting everything strait.

Thanks and Kudos to Mr. Kelly! His firm helped me and my family out of a very tough situation! Thanks so much Mr. Kelly.

Hired on 12/11/18 for a deed title transfer. Over 2 months later and I have not heard from them at all. I have left messages over the last few weeks and not one returned call... I feel as I have been ripped off as I have already paid for the services.

EDIT I got a call minutes after this review. Added two stars. We'll see how it goes from here.

I ran into some complications with a house that was under contract. To make matters worse it was thanksgiving week and needed urgent Legal support. Found the Kelly Group, they were quick to respond and support and helped me out of a bind. Would use them again. Jeff Kelly was great, listened to my concerns and walked me through all my options.

Jeff Kelly is an outstanding individual that goes above and beyond for his customer. I contacted him with questions which he answered without hesitation even though I may not be a client of his is the future. I think I will strongly consider using his services in the future. Thanks Jeff

Jeff Kelly and his staff are incredibly kind and professional, I highly recommend them.

The Kelly Legal Group and Jeff Kelly should be a benchmark for which all other Legal Firms should be measured. I have endured years of unfair and unprofessional practices by opposing counsel that has nearly beaten me to a point of submission. During that time, the theory of what is just and right, rules of civil procedure, and as well as any rights were nonexistent or ignored.

Then I made one fortunate phone call to the Kelly Legal Group. A young lady asked me to explain the situation, she quickly understood and scheduled a telephone conference with Jeff Kelly. I then received a call two hours before our scheduled call and was told he could talk to me now. I am glad I stopped what I was doing and spoke to Jeff Kelly. He immediately grasped the seriousness and criticality of my situation. He knew exactly what needed to be done, and I felt comfortable putting all my trust and confidence in his ability.

As every Lawyer does, he asked me what I wanted, I simply told him to practice law, and protect my rights. If it were not for Jeff Kelly and his team, my life would have changed for the worse overnight - and probably something I would have never recovered from. By the way - this was a civil matter. This is a lawyer that will strive to fearlessly uphold the interests of his client regardless of the repercussions that may arise from such actions. He has exceptional integrity, and respect for the law, and rules of procedure. I am a 100% Disabled Honorably Discharged Marine Corps Officer - I have always trusted my life to my fellow Marines, and now I must add, Jeff Kelly and the Kelly Legal Group.
There are a lot of lawyers out there, but few that do what they say they are going to do. I will always be grateful to have had this team on my side.

As I side note, I thought I was driven and thorough – well they were so commited to a deadline they outpaced me in preparing their arguments for court.

Jeff is the only attorney we call and refer when it comes to legal needs. He never lets us down. He has the best attorneys in Austin.

Jeff has always been available to take on any case we have. His ability to handle real estate problems is second to none. He is tough and maintains professionalism in all aspects of dealing with not only us as clients, but also with opposing sides. He is the first attorney that we contact with any major legal issue.

I have use the Kelly Legal Group and what stands out with me is not only there professionalism... but how when you are involved in a legal matter that is stressful and difficult they make you feel at easy.. and that they are there to Help you in every way Possible.. Thank You so Much!.... Mr. Kelly and all Your Group and Staff

I have used Jeff Kelly and a few other attorneys at The Kelly Legal Group over the years and they have gone above and beyond to help me with my legal needs and those of my real estate clients as well. You're not going to find another group of Austin lawyers that provide as much knowledge of the law as these guys. I highly recommend them.

Jeff is a very competent, honest, responsive attorney. He worked through our legal issues thoroughly and provided us with solutions. I highly suggest having Jeff look at your real estate contract before signing any papers.

We have used this law firm, more specifically, Jeff Kelly, for 3-5 years in professional and personal ways. Any time we have dealt with this firm we have been treated professionally, promptly and legally superior to most other law firms. As a past legal secretary, I find this firm excellent and would give them a 10 star rating.

Terrible experience
The no good people that are working for this guy attorney are terrible I had a bad experience with this group also with the attorney.
They will not explain to you, they just rush to take your money away BE CAREFUL do not hire this people
No good, they know exactly the consequences of a mechanics lien they don’t care about you, they are out to get people for the money, they don’t explain what
Consecuentes you can be dealing with because they know that I’m more trouble you are the more they can get from you, I did spend lots of money with them for mechanics liens and even a judge said all that
Obey you paid they didn’t explain to you what can happen she was incredibly amazed, now there trying to sue me for 1400 dlls they need to pay me for all they made me waist time money and headaches
Metal anguish and credit card debt.
I have to say this is my right to say to everyone what in reality happened to me the woman that works there is a rude person she acts like she can talk to you anyway she wants is a disgrace and the guys that work there are a total waste of time.
Don’t waist your money and time with this people !!!
I have the right to let people know what happened and I have the right to express my self on real events with proof and witnesses.

This is a few months late but I feel like it is still worth talking about. Back in July, I got served with papers claiming that I owed Harris County and the city of Houston a few thousand dollars in property taxes from a business I owned a few years ago. I called The Kelly Group and, after a few days, I got a call back from them. They were up front and honest with me. What was most surprising was that their advice to me was to not hire them unless I was for sure it was worth it to me because the costs of what I owed compared to what I would have had to pay them would not have made sense. In other words, I would have had to pay them the ballpark amount I was owing Houston. I really did appreciate their advice and would recommend them to anyone needing help.

Jeff Kelly and staff were very helpful in my legal case. I highly recommend them.

A few months ago I had the unfortunate experience of my closing date passing without a house sale due to the sellers refusing to leave. I had no idea this was possible but after searching on internet found it is, and often. I had moved to TX from out of state with arrangements made to close on the contracted date. The morning after closing date was not honored, I looked up real estate attorney and found Jeff Kelly. His offer of a free consultation led me to call for as much information and direction I could receive. I have complete respect for Jeff and his knowledge he so graciously shared. He patiently listened to my list of questions and answered each one thoroughly. He gave me the options of direction to pursue and cost of each. He waited while I gathered my contract to read him particular paragraphs. He knew exactly what information to give to ease my mind and assure me I had legal recourse should I choose to retain his services beyond the phone consultation. Thankfully I was able to close on the house under contract nine days after initial closing date. I asked Jeff what I could give to honor his time for his help. He asked that I write a review of my experience speaking with him. Its taken some time but I have not forgotten how incredibly helpful it was to receive logical legal information with as much patience as he delivered. Thank you Jeff!

Great Staff and Friendly Attorneys

Avoid using this attorney and save yourself some misery. Mistakes were made using this attorney.

Jeff Kelly is representing me in a real estate dispute. Jeff has a great mind for the law, and when I read the petition he wrote, I nearly fell over. It was the scariest, smartest, most well documented argument I’ve ever seen! OK I haven’t seen that many petitions but Jeff really nailed it - to the last detail. There are considerable complexities in the chronology of the case and Jeff led me through the chronology of events and then documented in amazing detail the facts of the case, citing case law at every juncture. I'd had a previous attorney - he was very nice - but I think he'd of made a better therapist than attorney. Jeff is sharp, focused, aggressive, detail oriented and has a creative and panoramic vision of how to use the law like a sword and shield to defend his client. The oddest part is, Jeff makes me laugh. The law is serious business, but Jeff's humanity and wit is an asset that serves him well. I know I've been wronged. It stings badly and I'm so angry at the treatment I've received from the opposing parties. And at this point, I'm actually less concerned about a settlement than seeing justice serving up a steaming bowl of "shame on you" But a swift kick to their wallet comes in a close second..Given of what I've seen from Jeff thus far, a settlement won't be nearly as satisfying as watching him in court - dismantling the bad actors that put me in this position.

Best legal help I ever received!

I spoke with Mr. Kelly directly and he was very helpful in informing me with my rights. I will give a update on his services...

I spoke directly to an attorney concerning a legal matter and even though he determined I probably couldn't use his services, he was extremely kind and helpful and gave me advice on how to handle my situation. If I should ever need legal assistance, Kelly Legal Group will be the first law office I call!

Jeff Kelly and his team have been a joy to work with. His firm was responsive and Jeff was proactive in the midst of our urgent real estate transaction. I highly recommend Jeff and the rest of the Kelly Legal Group. He is a brilliant (and kind) advocate who also has the rare ability to make complex legal jargon understandable to those of us who aren't lawyers. My wife and I are so very grateful for the work this firm has done for us in the past.

I called Jeff out of the blue to get some simple legal questions answered and he was very responsive and provided great information. I would recommend him based on my experience.

Jeff Kelly and his staff worked diligently to allevitate the enormous amount of stress my foreclosure was causing. My house in Hutto was set for foreclosure...a constable actually showed up there with the notice to vacate within 24 hours. I frantically began searching for an attorney to represent me and prayed to God that I chose the right one. Mr. Kelly was the best decision I could have made. They immediately filed a Temporary Restraining Order which the Judge approved...so my house was saved for the time being and since then, KLG has gone above and beyond what I could ever have imagined an attorney would do for me. We did a loan modification with the mortgage company, BOA, who hardly worked with us at all...but after KLG got involved, it was a complete 360 turnaround and they now treat us like human beings. My children grew up in that house and many memories were made there. thanks to them, those memories will continue and I cannot express how grateful I am for their diligence and true dedication to keeping my family in the home and out of a desperate situation. God bless you all!

Jeff Kelly is one of the best lawyers in Austin, hands down. Not only does he handle real estate & foreclosure cases, but he helped me with getting a serious traffic ticket completely dismissed. Jeff knows exactly what to do in the courtroom, and I would highly recommend him to everyone I know.
