From beginning to end I had a pleasant and professional experience. Jefferson was confident, took time to discuss details of my case, go over outcomes, and overall just made this process easier. There was clear and timely communication as well which helped when I had a simple question and rather than wait days from a secretary I had direct and immediate contact. I hope you never need their services, but I highly recommend Jefferson and his group if you do.

He was very adamant about my case and let me know what was going on. Anytime I had a question, he would get right back to me and not leave me in the dark. I would definitely recommend him to anyone, I felt extremely confident in his abilities and that made me much more at ease during this stressful time.

The team at Valley of the Sun Law ( Claudia ) provided excellent representation in my personal injury case ( car accident ) and were able to achieve results that were far beyond what was expected!

I was in a very stressful position with a possible DUI on my hands and Jefferson really stepped up to get me out of it. He knows what he's talking about and uses all past education and experiences to your advantage. Never had a problem with communication and he answered all my questions in a way that I was able to easily understand. I am not going to jail because of him. Do yourself a favor and hire Jefferson Simmons as your lawyer.

Jefferson Simmons help me through my court case. I had no experience dealing with any court related issues like this before. I was nervous and anxious. Jefferson was very comforting, honest, and candid. He explained the possible outcomes, and what our plan would be. At the end of the process we came out with a desirable outcome, and I am very happy that I found Jefferson to help me out through this tough time. I would recommend his services to anyone, even family.

REDUCED TO RECKLESS DRIVING FROM DUI IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING WHETHER OR NOT TO HIRE JEFFERSON SIMMONS, THE ANSWER IS ABSOLUTELY YES, DO IT.
You would be doing yourself an injustice through not hiring Jefferson or at least taking the time to get a FREE consultation with him. Where do I even begin! Terrified from this whole experience and unsure of what to expect, I felt instant relief and understanding from my first interaction with Jefferson. His professionalism, authenticity and such willingness to help separated him from the rest of the consultations I had already received. He was always upfront with what he thought my options would be and didn't ever give me a sense of false hope which I truly appreciated. I always felt as though we were in charge of case and that I had some sort of option to pursue in my favor. His endless patience and persistence with my case is what spoke volumes about his strong work ethic. In my specific case my blood was taken at a .12 BAC and it was my first offense, leading to me being charged with a DUI to the slightest degree. My court date got pushed back several times within a 2 year period but Jefferson did not give up and suggested I went to Trial after the prosecuting side didn't originally offer us an enticing enough deal for us to take. Upon the closing of my case, I was offered for my DUI charges to be dropped down to Reckless Driving, spend 2 nights in jail (which I came to find isn't two nights and is more of a holding cell than a jail), a little over a grand in fees owed (which I was also able to sign up for a payment plan) and 8 points on my driving record which will drop off after a year of not getting any other tickets. In addition to having a DUI off my record, I was avoiding an Interlock and a defensive driving course. Jefferson understands that good people sometimes make poor decisions or are in the wrong place at the wrong time. He will never make you feel insecure or judged about what you are going through and seems to thoroughly enjoy the challenge of how to help you move on with your life. I would HIGHLY recommend his services and expertise and cannot stress enough that you would want him on your side. Thanks again Jefferson.

Jefferson is simply the best! Compassionate towards my situation and understanding of my hardships. He handled my case extremely professionally and explained every step of the process. He has extensive knowledge of the rules & regulations of the law and processes that must be done properly. I highly recommend him to anyone & everyone who is facing a dire situation. Mine had slim chances of getting the outcome I wanted, but with Jeffersons professionalism and knowledge we were able to get the outcome I desired. I cant thank him enough for what he did!

Jefferson provided exceptional defense in my case, exploring avenues and strategies that led to a better than best outcome in my criminal case. I am forever grateful for his conscientious and meticulous defense, and for being someone who I could count on when my freedom was on the line.

Jefferson and Claudia were an incredible defense team. The level of professionalism and response I received was top notch and helped ease my anxiety with navigating something I had never experienced. I highly recommend this firm (particularly Jefferson and Claudia) to anyone needing legal representation.

They helped me every step of the way and I felt relieved and in good hands!

If your in a jam give Jeferson a call. He knows his stuff and will get the job done. I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone. Little pricy but well worth the investment. You get what you pay for. He’s your guy. Also offering payment plans which was and is a huge deal maker for me.

Jefferson was amazing. He was 100% worth the investment. There were open lines of communication constantly, clear expectations and realistic time frames that were given to me. It wasn’t an over night process but his expertise and experience left me very satisfied. You cannot rush the judicial process and he made me understand that. I would recommend him to anyone. Especially any professional person. If you have a degree or career worth protecting he is your guy. I give him 5 stars.

My attorney Jefferson Simmons was truly amazing! He was very professional, very knowledgeable, kept me informed on every detail throughout the case and he really did what he said he was going to do and that was getting my DUI reduced to a reckless driving. I would recommend him to anybody that has gotten a DUI and doesn’t know what the next move to make is. Jefferson Simmons is the way to go if you’ve gotten a DUI, hands down!

Jefferson is truly the best attorney there is! After an unfortunate car accident (I was rear-ended and then hit the car in front of me) I was facing multiple charges including Reckless Driving and Leaving the Scene of an Accident. After seeing all the charges I was scared out of my mind. Jefferson was beyond responsive and answered every text, call, and email. He was always honest and I was never left in the dark. Thanks to Jefferson’s amazing knowledge of criminal defense ALL CHARGES WERE DISMISSED. I could have not asked for a better outcome. Thank you Jefferson! I am forever grateful and would recommend Jefferson to anyone!

After many hours of researching and contacting attorneys, I made an appointment with Mr. Simmons, so glad I did! My 17 year old son got into trouble with the law, and Jefferson Simmons was able to very quickly get the charges dropped and into the diversion program. We were told it would take 6 months. From the time we hired him, until the time we were done it was less than a month. He not only was half the price of many attorneys we talked with, but was so knowledgeable and kind. He took the time to talk with my son, explain what the laws are, and offer him advice for his future. Having trouble with our teens is always painful, to say the least, but Jefferson made the process so much easier. I have given his name to everyone I know! Thank you Jefferson Simmons, you are our hero.

Facing a charge that I simply do not want on my record, I immediately contacted Jefferson, as he had proven himself in the past with somebody that I am close to.

Jefferson was honest and did not oversell me on false hope. An excellent communicator, he kept me in the loop every step of the way, and ultimately was able to get my case totally dismissed.

Having already witnessed his work, my expectations were high. He somehow managed to exceed them.

I recently retained Mr. Simmons to represent me in a matter that was unfortunately blown out of proportion by the state. I was accused of aggravated assault with a firearm and aggravated assault on a police officer and was facing anywhere between 5-15 years in prison with a mandatory 5 years if convicted due to the dangerous allegation. Mr Simmons was extremely persistent in his negotiations with the prosecutor and in the end managed to negotiate a fair middle ground to 45 days in jail, 200 hours community restitution, & 18 months probation. Jefferson knew how important it was to me to keep my background free of any felonies as I maintain a professional license in property & casualty insurance thru the state. He was able to accomplish this by negotiating an Undesignated plea wherefore upon completion of probation the offenses would be designated misdemeanors.

I would highly recommend Jefferson for any criminal matter as he has clearly shown his expertise and willingness to be your voice during an incredibly stressful time. I pray that I never have to but if I was ever in any kind of trouble ever again Jefferson would be the first person I'd call.

I had the unfortunate experience of facing 5-7 years in prison, fortunately, Jefferson Simmons didn't back down. He worked out the best possible scenario to 10 months of prison time. Even better though, he walked me through every step of way. Talking to me in realities and the pros and cons of different decisions.
I'm out now and am thankful.

Jefferson Simmons was awesome. Happy that I was connected wit him. I would use him again and have my friends and family use him as well.

I have a somewhat troubled background from my late teen years including a few cases that likely would have had much better results for me had I secured representation from an attorney of Jefferson's caliber.
Due to this checkered past and not wanting to further complicate my future endeavors with a potential theft charges, I hired Jefferson after reading the reviews here. To be perfectly honest, I expected at best to receive a reduced sentence and fines. Jefferson's professional action and skill shined through when he was able to get my case completely dismissed.
Throughout the process, Jefferson's communication was impeccable. He responded promptly whenever I had questions, and kept me fully informed. I can tell that he takes pride in his work, and actually cares about making sure his clients get the best possible result.

HANDS DOWN - the BEST attorney in Arizona!!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND JEFFERSON AND CAN NOT SAY IT ENOUGH! I am SO lucky to have been referred to Jefferson through a friend's coworker. He is extremely experienced and delivered results above and beyond my expectations in a truly professional manner - making the process simple and hassle free. Jefferson was always there to answer any questions or concerns that I had and took the time to thoroughly explain each step.

Unfortunately, I found myself in a legal bind 4 days after I moved to Arizona - the law is tough here and I was certain that I wouldn't stand a chance with the courts. I researched the best attorney's in Phoenix and had decided to meet with Mr. Simmons after a friend's coworker had recommended his services. I was nervous and thought that no attorney would be able to help me.

Instantly, I knew that I had made the right choice. Jefferson was very understanding of my situation and I never felt an ounce of judgement. He listened to my concerns and gave me the facts in an honest and straightforward approach. He explained the best and worst possible scenario and what we would work toward. He was very prompt on keeping me posted with any updates and answered any call or question that I had in a timely manner.

I was SHOCKED when I heard the results of my case. Everything had basically been dismissed and I had a few hours of driving classes to take. Quite honestly, I am still in SHOCK and very, very grateful and thankful for his efforts. I hope to never have to call him again (as I plan to stay out of trouble); however, I would ONLY recommend Attorney Jefferson Simmons and he will be my FIRST call if I ever need legal assistance in the future! MANY, MANY THANKS JEFFERSON!! YOU ROCK!

No one wants to need a criminal defense attorney, but if you, a friend, or a loved one is faced with this reality you can rest easy after hiring Jefferson Simmons. His knowledge, experience and thorough attention to detail is a lifeline to anyone drowning in the confusion of the legal system. He works hard to deliver the best possible outcomes and has worked magic on many occasions. If expertise is what you're after, you will not find better than Jefferson Simmons and his team of caring professionals. Hire him now.

Throughout my case, Jefferson Simmons demonstrated what a superb lawyer he is. He was always quick to respond and patient in explaining the status and details/developments of my case. The stressful time I was going through was made so much easier with his guidance. I sincerely appreciate all of the help and professionalism shown by him.

I had some legal troubles and a case pending when a friend recommended me to Jefferson Simmons. I went into his office initially without knowledge of his background or credentials. After a short conversation Iknew I ws in the right hands. He took a look at my case and told me exactly what it was, not just what I wanted to hear. After it was all said and done, I could not have gotten the outcome without his knowledge and hard work. He will take your case and make it his own. I recommend Jefferson Simmons to anyone looking for a hands on, motivated and straight forward attorney.

Jefferson Simmons is an outstanding defense attorney and has helped our family through some difficult times over the past couple of years with fantastic results. I highly recommend Jefferson Simmons to anyone requiring a defense attorney.

If it weren't for Jefferson Simmons I'd be in prison today. He was always available, and helped me even after my case was finished. I would recommend you speak to him before you decide to retain another attorney.

After I was arrested and charged in Gilbert for a DUI, it is safe to say I was terrified. I am not a person who has been in trouble before, and I had no idea how to tackle this situation. Luckily, I had Jefferson's contact info and I called him. Soon after, we met in person and his office tackled my case head on. They are so incredibly detail oriented in their investigation of your case; that alone is worth every penny spent on their services. Going through something like this is incredibly stressful, tedious and time consuming, but Jefferson made the process for me as easy as possible. My case was a very tough one and we ended up having to proceed with a jury trial. If you find yourself in this situation, YOU NEED an experienced trial attorney like Mr. Simmons. Once we proceeded with the trial, Jefferson blew me away with his incredible knowledge and expertise in the courtroom. No matter the outcome of my situation, I know he did absolutely everything he could to protect my rights and fight for what was fair. In the end, I was found NOT GUILTY. Every situation is different, but I can tell you from firsthand experience, Jefferson Simmons is THE BEST in the business.

I was in a bad spot when I had a serious legal issue in need of attention. I looked everywhere online and consulted a different firm originally. I didn't like the vibe I got so I looked a little more. I found Jefferson and called for a consultation. From the second I walked in the door through our entire first meeting I knew this was the representation I wanted. Couldn't have been more impressed with the level of professionalism that he provided for me and my case. I was very pleased with the resolution and was even more impressed when he went the extra mile when it counted based on my life and needs. I would recommend him to anyone who has to go through the same experience I did.

I found myself in a very difficult situating and was very lucky to have found Jefferson. He made sure the court process was easy to understand and was beyond patient with my lack of understanding. The court system is very confusing! Jefferson got me a verdict I am pleased with, a probation term well bellow others on the same charge and helped me with follow up. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a solid, patient, understanding and proficient lawyer. The cost was fair and well worth it. Thanks Again, Jefferson!

I had never been in trouble before & was facing some serious charges I was scared to say the least. Jefferson Simmons started on my case right away. I never felt as if I was confused or didn't know what to expect because he did such a great job of making sure I understood everything that was going on in & out of the court room. The amount of time & effort he puts into your case makes you feel as if you're the only case he has! I couldn't have been happier hiring Jefferson Simmons. He took something that could have been a horrible life changing experience & made it a bump in the road. There is no other attorney that takes your cases as seriously has he does.

Jefferson Simmons is truly amazing . I was referred to him by another reputable law firm, that could not handle my case. He is extremely experienced in his field , and a great attorney . I highly recommend him to others, as he really knows his stuff. He listened to everything I said , made me feel comfortable , and made me feel that my case was important . He did not disappoint !

I was facing two separate legal issues that occurred nearly simultaneously, one far more significant than the other. Jefferson was able to work out a deal for me that got the more significant charge, that could have resulted in hefty fines, a huge mark on my record, and even jail, completely dismissed. This left me with a simple charge and a small fine with no sweat in the long run. The guy really knows his stuff but more importantly to me, he is ALWAYS available. And I don't mean business hours only, he even got back to me once while on vacation. He's well worth your business (and your freedom/peace of mind.)

Jefferson helped me through a difficult legal issue with the utmost professionalism. I would highly recommend him; he really knows his stuff.

After my son was killed by a drunk and drugged driver, Matt Long represented our family as our Victim’s Rights Attorney. We’d already been through one trial (hung jury), were weary with the legal process, and needed someone who would stand beside us through the 2nd trial. We met with Mr. Long on one day, hired him the next, and to this day I can’t speak highly enough about him.

Many times you’ll find attorneys that are barely involved or are unwilling to take a stand… not Mr. Long. From literally the first time he worked our case, he stood his ground and without hesitation challenged the opposing attorney and his nonsense motion. I was so relieved ...and so grateful; the peace of mind that comes from having someone you can truly rely on is immeasurable.

Mr. Long patiently guided us through the ups and downs of the 2nd trial, (explaining all the motions, deciphering the rulings, and answering the endless questions we had) and when sentencing day came, he stood with our family in asking for, and receiving, the maximum sentence allowable.

I hope you'll take the time to meet with him. I know you'll be glad that you did.

Sincerely,
Lisa Lariviere and family

Matt Long has been extremely helpful to my family over the past few years. Matt represented my brother, who was murdered in 2014, and prosecuted his two murderers. He was aggressive against the defense and was always able to consistently rebuke their plan of action. He was very thorough with his research on my brother's case, leaving no stone unturned. I believe the combination of these attributes helped to convict the murderers who are now tucked away from society behind bars.
In addition to these qualities Matt was readily available via email, phone, and messaging. He always made a point to return our calls. He even did so one time while he was on vacation with his family.
Matt explained every process of the law and the proceedings that would be taking place in laymen terms. It was easy to follow the process because of his attention to detail and dedication to his clients. He was a stellar guide and sensitive to the topic and emotions at hand.
After the completion of my brother's case Matt remained in contact with my family. I appreciated his follow up and checking in on us, especially with my mom. It shows that he isn't just about business but also truly cares for his clients.
Just recently Matt represented me, a 23 year veteran teacher, with a legal matter with our school district. He was immediately available and made me his priority. In my estimation I have yet to encounter a lawyer of his caliber. He receives my highest recommendation.

Matt Long has been my legal representation in the past. He is knowledgeable and diligent. He tells you like it is.
