My daughter recently had a legal issue involving a traffic citation. At first we were going to tackle it on our own, but after making a call to Kauffman and Billmoria, and speaking with Jennifer, we were given options and a plan. Attorney Tom Kauffman and his assistant Jennifer Jaworski were so helpful and supportive and git us the results we needed. I highly recommend them! They will not disappoint!Posted on Google

Tom Kauffman and his staff are totally awesome! If you ever need an attorney for any topic, give him a call. He recently went against the State and our court system for an incident that was not my fault, and he was so professional and organized, there was no argument to my case. God bless you and your staff; I consider all of you like family. "You want a good/decent attorney don't call Tom; call Tom if you want the BEST". I would rate his firm more than 5 ⭐.Posted on Google

I can’t say enough good things about my experience with this law office. From the very beginning, they were professional, compassionate, and incredibly effective. I was facing charges in Pennsylvania while living out of state, and the stress of possibly having to travel back and forth and the case in general was overwhelming. But thanks to this incredible team, I didn’t have to step foot in Pennsylvania again. They handled everything seamlessly. All I had to do was answer a phone call to accept the reduced charges and pay the fines. It was that simple. Jennifer, the assistant, was a true gem. She kept me informed every step of the way, always with kindness and patience. She made me feel like I was more than just another case on their desk. And Alex, my attorney, was truly outstanding. She fought hard for me and ultimately got me the best case scenario. my charges were reduced tremendously. I could tell she genuinely cared about my outcome and went above and beyond to make sure I was protected. I am beyond grateful for their help and can confidently say that if you’re in need of a law office that truly has your back, this is the one. Their professionalism, kindness, and results speak for themselves. Thank you, Alex and Jennifer and everyone at this office, for everything you did. You turned a really scary situation into something manageable, and for that I’ll always be thankful.Posted on Google

Attorney Tom Kauffman was absolutely amazing at my preliminary hearing in Homer City! I am very pleased with the way he handled my case and the outcome, not to mention he was very personable. I was also able to contact Jennifer at the law office any time prior to my hearing via telephone and email. She was always helpful and positive which was much appreciated. I highly recommend Tom and this law office. *Update* I found myself in an unrelated matter months later in November 2024 from a DUI incident. There was no doubt I would ask Tom to represent me again and I am so thankful that I did. My main charge was the most serious I ever had in my life and did not know what to expect with the legal process. Tom and Jen made me feel at ease and genuinely cared about my case not to mention how knowledgeable they were with all of my questions. I would not have had a pleasant outcome if it wasn't for my representation. I will always highly recommend Tom, Jen, and this entire law firm to anyone dealing with criminal charges especially in Indiana County.Posted on Google

When our world was turned upside down, Tom Kauffman and his team at Kauffman and Billimoria were a true lifeline for our family. My 18-year-old son was falsely accused of some serious charges by his 17-year-old ex-girlfriend not long after ending their relationship. We had no experience with lawyers, law enforcement, or the justice system, and we were overwhelmed with fear and confusion. From the moment I called for representation, Tom and his team sprang into action with compassion, professionalism, and unwavering dedication. Zubin Billimoria expertly handled the PFA side of the case, providing calm guidance and sharp legal skill during an emotionally charged time. Tom led the defense with exceptional care—gathering testimonies from community members, coordinating character witnesses, and helping us recover vital evidence like phone records and text messages. He believed in my son from day one, recognizing his gentle heart and strong character, and he never wavered in his commitment to clearing his name. Tom knew we had a strong case and gave us the strength to trust the process. When the District Attorney offered a plea deal—likely in response to the alleged victim’s hesitation to go to trial—my son, with Tom’s full support, declined it. He wanted the truth to come out in court and refused to admit to something he did not do. In the end, it didn’t even come to that—all charges were dismissed. We are eternally grateful to Tom, Zubin, Pam, Jen, and everyone at the firm who fought tirelessly for justice. They gave us hope, fought with integrity, and helped give my son his life back. We cannot thank them enough.Posted on Google

The people at Kauffman & Billimoria were wonderful to work with. Especially Tom and Jennifer. Tom and Jennifer helped me with everything I needed and had amazing communication skills. Attorney Tom helped me feel relaxed when I was under a tremendous amount of stress. When it came time for my preliminary hearing, he was able to have all charges dismissed! I cannot thank Tom and Jennifer enough for all that they have done for me. Not to mention pricing is very good for the amount of experience and the skills that they provide. If anyone needs an attorney Tom is the guy to go to.Posted on Google

Tom Kauffman’s dedication and knowledge of the law were exactly what I needed. He helped me to avoid several wrongful traffic tickets. 10/10 would recommend him to any of my friends in case this should so happen to them or anybody.Posted on Google

I hired Tom Kaufmann for a legal matter in a time of desperation. Tom and his staff not only provided legal support but genuine concern for my case and were extremely helpful with every step along the way. Because of the team’s communication, I always felt prepared for court and the necessary prerequisites that had to be completed to be well represented in front of the judge. My expectations were exceeded and I highly recommend themPosted on Avvo

A Great Lawyer That Truly Cares I learned I was being investigated for a felony. I reached out to Tom after seeing his reviews online. He was quick to consult with me. He would meet with me and my family after work hours in his office building. He was quick to respond to my questions and emails. He has decades of experience of working in Indiana and knew the law enforcement I would be dealing with. This helped with the plan he made for me during the investigation phase. With his help, the case was closed during the investigation phase with no further charges or action taken.
