Jeff meticulously researched all aspects of the case, listened carefully to client and family, and was able to think outside the box. He was caring and compassionate, and made exceptional presentations in court. I am grateful to have had him represent my family member.

Mr. Laybourne worked persistently and professionally on my case which resulted in a lesser charge. I would highly recommend Jeff to assist you and your family as needed.

Almost 3 years ago I hired Mr. Laybourne during the absolute rock bottom, worst time of my life. I was charged with a 1st degree felony and looking at time in prison. Jeff explained my options and potential outcomes with expertise and compassion without sugar-coating anything. He was professional, courteous, and an excellent speaker with extensive knowledge of the court system and criminal defense. Jeff will fight tooth and nail for you, he's not afraid to speak his mind and ultimately wants the absolute best for his clients. Jeff has been by my side for almost 3 years and I would hire him all over again.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jeff on my first felony case. I can tell you now, he listens, he’s very knowledgeable and very personable. He knows exactly what he’s doing! If I hadn’t hired Jeff I don’t know where I would be. I couldn’t be happier with the results and what he’s done for me! He’s the best attorney in Ohio!

I have hired Jeff as my attorney for several cases over the last few years and he has done an amazing job with all of them! My first case was complicated due to my citizenship status and he went above and beyond to give me the best representation possible and ended up getting my case sealed. He also recently got a complicated Driving ticket reduced to a small seatbelt ticket. I would hire him for any and all cases, big or small. I can’t thank him enough for all of his help!

Jeff is a amazing lawyer. I have used him in Akron courts,Barberton, and today Stow courts. Jeff was outstanding And professional. If you already know how Stow and Barberton are he was able to get my Dui reduced to a m-4 reckless op with coates in stow. If you know anything about stow that's amazing. He was way more competitive on price than any other attorney in this area. I reccomend Highly!!

I contact a few attorneys in the akron area, just from the confidence in his tone and his knowledge on my situation I decided to go with him. Not only was he reasonably priced but he exceeded his "best case" scenario and got my case dismissed without me even being present on a felony charge. Thank you Jeff for your hard work and dedication!

Jeff's knowledge of and familiarity with the Akron court system proved invaluable. I believe he reached the best possible resolution for me, given the predicament I was in. He was patient, insightful, up front and honest throughout the entire process.

Jeff has provided excellent counseling and advocacy for me, multiple family members, and my own clients upon referral. Jeff brings a wealth of experience and insight, ranging from a problematic tenant in a commercial property, to setting up a LLC, and offering advise to a small business. He has assisted multiple clients and their families with criminal allegations from DUI to possession, etc. As a fellow member of the legal community, I know Jeff's superior reputation with the judges and staff at the Summit County Court of Common Pleas and Akron Municipal Court. Additionally, he is known as leader in the legal community and very active with the Bar Association. I do not hesitate to unequivocally recommend Jeff and appreciate not only his results but also his respect for cost-effectiveness.

Jeff helped us out when my wife was involved in a car accident. Jeff was always approachable and informative throughout the process. He was extremely sympathetic and sensitive to the situation at hand. His professionalism was exemplary.

I contacted Jeff to prepare my mother's will and living will. We had a small window of time in which to complete these documents and he came through big time. He even came to us to have the documents signed and furnished.

I'm new to the rental property business and the day finally came when a tenant wouldn't pay their rent. I called Jeff immediately and he walked me through the process of giving proper notice to my tenant and was then there every step of the way up and through the eviction hearing. Everything was in order on the court day! We got the eviction!
