I hired Mr. Kiebel to defend me on 3 different charges in 2 different counties(1 felony and 2 high misdemeanors). I was facing possibly up to 3 years in prison and I walked away with no jail time and only 6 months probation and some community service. He was always on time for hearings, is knowledgeable with the law, and presented himself very well. Would definitely recommend James to anyone in a bad situation with the law.

Mr. Kiebel did what other attorneys said they could not. My OWI was reduced to an impaired and I won my implied consent hearing. So now I still have my restricted license and was able to keep my job.
