Misconduct

Mr Thomas represented my ex wife in her criminal case in which she was arrested for battery. Jeff called me twice making light of domestic violence and harassing me. He started asking me personal questions about my personal life when he was only to speak of the criminal case. He then intimidated me by threatening to file some absurd action. He has been reported for his misconduct, harassments and intimidation to the Florida Bar.

The only choice for your attorney needs
I hired Mr. Thomas to help me with a Marchman Act filed against me. This was filed against me to get me into involuntary residential treatment, though I was already in voluntary treatment at a lower level. I would have been perfectly content if we could have kept my lower level of care with the Marchman Act enforced. Mr. Thomas was able to get the entire case dismissed. If you know anything about Marchman Acts, they never get dismissed and are always enforced. I am amazed by Mr. Thomas's savvy and approach in court. He was always available to answer my questions and kept me up to date on all details. In my opinion, Mr. Thomas is the only choice in Tampa for any Criminal defense, DUI and DWI, Speeding,traffic ticket, or family law needs. I give him my highest recommendation. Thanks again Jeff!

Promises never kept after getting my money.

Jeff told me that my case is easy to be dismissed before getting my money. After he got the money, he changed his words and start to state that its hard to be dismissed and I have to accept a deal to plea guilty and lower the charges. Which I did and I regret it now. During my case, he never called me for any update, even no update for court date. he waved my right for speedy trial without calling me or explaining to me what is that. Definitely don't recommend him.

Would hire again
Mr Thomas answered my questions over the phone about how the process works and what needed to happen and it was something I had never been through before and even during the process I was a pain in the ass but he always answered my questions daily, and it was very short notice for what we needed and he got it taken care of. He was able to get the sentence reduced, and after sitting in the courtroom listening to all the cases before ours and they had attorneys also, I am grateful we had Jeff.

Honest affordable
I think it is only fair that Mr. Thomas when somebody makes a review they explain the situation I can say this about Mr. Thomas he has never lied to me he has never tried to blow smoke up my ass he has been honest truthful and also unlike many law firms he is affordable he will actually work with you on finances another amazing thing is if you call on the weekend he actually responds not because he’s desperate he has a great office his legal assistant is a very nice and very educated lady there is another lawyer at the firm they own it together it’s not that he’s desperate for money it’s just this is how he is would I suggest him for all cases I don’t know he seems to be very knowledgeable he’s going to be straightforward with you So to me that pretty much is the essence of a lawyer I hope God blesses him to grow even stronger

Understanding, Discernment and Accountability
Jeff Thomas is a lawyer with extensive understanding that goes further under the surface than i believe most could understand. He handled my case with an intuitive understanding of the judge and true Discernment of what was needed for the judge to allow for the case to turn in good favor. Jeff did an excellent job representing me and by the time your done doing what he suggests your odds will improve ten fold what it was. Jeff lit the spark to give me a chance to turn my odds to be respectable on most sides of the court room for my Probation Violation. Reinstated no jail time, great job. Much respect and thank again Jeff. In the end I was highly relieved for the situation. Would hire again.

review

I hired Jeff Thomas for $10,000, once he took my money he said I was guilty and tried to get me to plea out to a mandatory minimum 3 year sentence. I fired him and a public defender won my case at trial.

Highly Recommended DUI Attorney
I retained Mr. Thomas back in October for a DUI with property Damage and a bld alch level above .15 Right away he made me feel more comfortable, since this was the only time I have ever been in trouble. He never made any false promises as other attorney's I spoke with did andwas very honest that this might be difficult due to my bld alch level and that I was in an accident, however we just finished up today and my only charge was reckless driving, no probation and no fines only court cost. Mr. Thomas saved me thousands of dollars and I would highly recommend him over any other DUI attorney in the area.

I have worked with Jeff Thomas for over 10 years and his results speak for themselves. I would recommend that anyone looking for a criminal lawyer take the time to speak with Jeff Thomas. Jeff Thomas only handles criminal cases and he has the experience to help your case as former prosecutor at the State Attorney's Office in Hillsborough County.
