KEL Attorneys

Stay away, I wish I did some more research, I hired then on a whim after getting divorce papers, if I had seen some of the other reviews first I never would have hired them. No contact. Didn't even speak with my attorney until mediation which cost 1000 for her to sit and do nothing. Could not get any answers from them unless the bill was due. I dropped them eventually and they did not want to turn over my paperwork.
Bad lawyers, bad people in general
STAY AWAY

They are Robbers and Cheaters. They took your money away and do nothing for you. Everyone should report them to attorney's board. They are criminal people as they robber your money. Attorney's board should not allow them to cheat people.

I lost my house and they never filed bankruptcy for me after I payed thousands of dollars to them. All they did was threaten me if I didn't make my payments on time and even made me start over my payments once for being late. I thought they were on my side... :(

Hired them around 2010. Absolutely regret it. Waste of money. Did nothing. To me keep my home. After my services ended, I found out I was only in preforeclosure. Couldn't afford to keep paying them. Never returned phone calls. My case kept getting passed to different ppl. I never knew who to ask for. In the end I lost my money and my home. Had a very important decision to make so I called them. They called days later after I made the wrong decision and thought I had sold my home. The person tricked me into signing a quick claim deed... lost my home and got a foreclosure on my record. They don't care nor do they understand. Clients needs.

A few years back I called KEL for information about foreclosure, soon after a paralegal returned call and stated I needed to retain them immediately, although, I had not been served with papers yet and wouldn't for another nine months, however, they convinced me to pay the year retainer. Found out later from another attorney that I didn't need to retain an attorney until I was actually served and the paralegal should not have called me back and pressure me to retain them. They knew this and just wanted to get the fee. When I did get served, I couldn't speak to an attorney unless I made an appointment, which was up to two weeks away. I hired another attorney and he did the work for less than $500.00 and took care of everything. Although they are no longer KEL, beware.

I paid them over $******* in 2010 (my house payment for 12 months they told me to pay them and not the mortgage company) to help me defend a foreclosure and to get a loan modification. After several months of no communication, they told me I had a mediation scheduled. I met with an attorney 10 minutes before the mediation. The mediator asked one question of which I couldn't answer and he cancelled the mediation instantly. The next time I heard from them was a notice I had to renew my contract for another year for them to continue representing me. I didn't renew. I got the modification on my own, it was easy. I just discovered Matt Englett was a crook. Had I known he had ripped off so many people I would have spoke out sooner.

I am writing this review in reference to one of KEL staff members who is currently assisting my wife and I with our credit card debt. She has been instrumental in helping us settle several major credit cards an obtaining outstanding settlement offers as well as payment plans. She is customer oriented and professional in addition she is always available and her response time is impeccable. I would be happy to recommend the services of KEL to anyone who is in need of assistance. They have done a great job and their people are top notch! Keep up the good work.

How can the state of florida allow this man to practice law in this state. Lost my only vehicle in bankruptcy due to them not filing proper paper work, after many, many request and 20 phone calls with no ANSWER. THEY STILL LIE TO ME TODAY, FORD SENT THEM 5 REAFFIRMATION LETTER DURING OUR BANKRUPTCY NO RESPONSE FROM KEL.
I AM 66 YEARS OLD AND HAVE TO SEE A HEART DOCTOR MONTHLY, I HAVE NO VEHICLE THANKS TO KEL. DO NOT USE THIS FIRM. PLEASE

They have been working on my divorce case for nearly 2 years now. I have spent nearly $10,000 And seem very little movement on my case. Me and my ex-wife do not have any assets other than two kids. This company continues to bounce me around between lawyers which makes each lawyer have to look into my case to figure out where we are and that takes at least two months each time. They do not communicate well they take weeks and months at a time to get back with you and there is no movement. I would vies anyone to avoid this company at all cost since I've been working with them I've seen at least three lawyers quit or leave the company for whatever reason probably because they're terrible company. I will be taking my business elsewhere. I gave them a one on the rating but I wish I could give them a negative score

This group met with me on 8/26/15. They smiled shook their heads yes and said we will help. I paid them $950.00 and they did nothing. 3 months lather I asked for a refund for services never rendered and they said NO. If everyone at this site would contact the FL. BAR and register their complaint it would help remove this sad excuse for a law firm. Please search- Register complaints against KEL -on line and join the fight to have this law firm disbarred.
