Very informative

Poor communication. Very untimely service. Ended up only having the one service done and then did the rest of the custody case without counsel

Awful attorney! I hired him for my husband's criminal violation car and both his custody cases. The first custody case, Kelton never showed up to court and my husband lost because he was in jail and no one showed up to represent him in his absence. He did win the second custody case only because the other party didn't have representation and didn't know how to respond (I also made sure significant info was provided to prove she was unfit). He never did ant research or gave any helpful advice on how to win. I had to research everything and give him the information. He was no carefree and kept saying "all we can do is try" without putting any real effort into any of the cases. My husband was in jail awaiting trial and the day of his bond hearing the judge told Kelvin to schedule the next hearing. The scheduler was busy so Kelton said he would call her later that day to schedule, which he didn't do. I called him multiple times to see if court has been scheduled over the next couple of weeks and he just kept saying no. He was waiting for them to contact him. Finally, he submits a motion to release him and tells me he again has to wait for them to contact him. Almost a month later, after many more calls and watching the docket like a hawk, I call the court house and they told me they left multiple messages to schedule and he never contacted them back. I had to keep calling Kelton and the court house to make sure they finally spoke and scheduled court. Three weeks later, the day before he was finally suppose to go to court, Kelton called me and said it was rescheduled. When I asked why, he said he didn't know. I called the court house to get info and they said they sent him documents weeks prior to notify him in attempts to get a new date that worked with my attorneys schedule. My husband was suppose to go to court in April, at the latest, but had to wait July 17th because of the negligence of Kelton Smith. He was scheduled to be released May 9th but had to stay in jail until he went to court on July 17th. I also found out that the motion he submitted was not appropriate for the type of case my husband had and would not have been accepted by the judge regardless of the circumstances. He even submitted the motion to two different courthouses when he only had an open case at one and charged me for both. I fired him and asked for a detailed invoice and refund and he only gave me back $200 and charged me for 3 motions that he submitted for cars that were already resolved and should not have motions submitted to. When my husband want to his office to discuss the discrepancies in the refund, he told my husband to leave before he called the cops and told him to get another attorney because contacting him again. Awful human being!!!!!

Kelton: you are a fine gentleman. I thank you for all the help and guidance you gave me.

Great guy...
