“I was granted the FI-2 and of course I am overjoyed and I want to thank you for all your assistance…I will recommend your services to others who may need trusted assistance in their (parole) review process.”
T. Chau – March, 2012
“We are all very grateful for your honest and sincere help. There are no words to express what’s in my heart…what you have accomplished for my beloved mom, Aunt Eva, and my 2 precious daughters. You stated it was a privilege to represent me. No, the privilege was having you help my family. My beloved Aunt was overwhelmed with tears of joy…a second chance at life. Thanks for the uplifting words and deeds.”
F. Tobar – February, 2012
“Thank you, thank you, thank you! I could write thank you’s all day and it still wouldn’t be enough for what you all have done for me and my family. I also want to thank your staff for always returning my mom’s calls, emails, etc.”
Jeff T – January, 2012
"Believe me when I tell you that when I was looking for someone to represent Cody to the Board, I did not take this endeavour lightly. I knew that Cody's life was at stake so when I came across your name, I did my research. I verified everything and left absolutely no stone unturned in the pursuit of the perfect attorney for Cody. You did not disappoint me and as I have said before, I have recommended you to dozens of families, some of whom I understand you are now representing, and I will continue to do so without reservation.
You have given Cody his life back and restored his faith in humanity because he now knows he is important, he does have value and with the right person believing in you, the impossible is possible.
I look forward to the day that I can shake your hand (although I think I am more apt to cry and hug you) because you have given Cody what he thought was not possible and that is a second chance at the life he deserves."
Thank you again, Kevin.
Kim L. – January, 2012
"Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! I just wanted to say thank you for all that you've done for me and my family. I cannot express how grateful I am for you you have given me the best Christmas present possible."
C. Ballard — December, 2011
"Thank you for all your help! May your family be blessed and your law office prosper and succeed. My freedom is precious and I shall not take it for granted."
B. Henderson — November, 2011
"I still can’t believe that I made parole. I honestly was not expecting it… Thank you for all that you did. I don’t believe I would have made parole if you hadn’t presented the facts! Thanks again Kevin!!!"
Julie K. — November, 2011
"The thing that would leave the most savory feeling in my belly would be to see you in person now that I am out and then simply shake your hand and humbly thank you for having been sooooo instrumental in delivering me from that heartbreaking nightmare."
James B. — September, 2011
"I am really speechless. Yesterday, I was notified at the infirmary that I am going home soon. Wow!! I almost passed out. Mr. Stouwie, I don’t really have the adequate words to express the way I really feel, and to express how thankful I and my family are to you. My family got astonished when they also heard the great news, especially my mom and dad. You really made their wish come true, that was to see me free before either one of them passed away. Thank you again, you have made a very big difference in our lives."
J. Estrada — June, 2011
"I'm so grateful to my family for seeking out your services. I must apologize to you because I doubted you could help me. Not due to your track record, but due to mine. You certainly did me justice. One day soon, once I get on my feet, I'll meet you in person without a glass partition between us. May our great Lord bless you and aid you and your clients. My sincere respect to you always!!"
R. Martinez — April 2011
"I thank you for all your hard work. I'm beyond happy with the outcome of the Parole decision. I want you to know that I have recommended your services to other inmates and will continue to do so without thought. I also would like to bring to your attention how impressed I was of you the first time we met."
R. Sierra — April 2011
"I just received my parole panel decision. I would like to thank you for your help and thank your staff for their help too. I appreciate everything, and my family is thankful also. May the Lord be with you always."
A. Velasquez — March 2011
"Just wanted to say Thank You for all of your hard work and helping me to make parole. I can't believe I am finally going home after 15 years!"
C. Ruiz — January 2011
"We are so pleased with the work you did representing J**** as parole attorney, and with Jay's availability, answering questions, and keeping us informed. Having you as J****'s parole attorney made a big difference. Thank You and MERRY CHRISTMAS!"
N. Good — December 2010
"Mr. Stouwie, thanks to you I’ll be home in a little bit. I still have to complete the “Changes” class. I will think of you each morning when I get up and drink my coffee on our back porch. My wife has waited for too long, and we can finally be together again, this time, hopefully forever. She cries whenever she talks about the time you called her and told her I made parole."
G. McGinty — October 2010
"Well, as you can imagine, I’ve been grinning from ear to ear since I got the good news. Thank you sir, and thank you to Jay also. I also thank the good Lord for using you the way he did. Many people were praying for God to give you the words and the wisdom to present my case to the parole board to the very best of your abilities. To God be the glory! To you, sir, my humble gratitude, for life."
C. Castoreno — July 2010
"There are no words to express my appreciation for what you and your staff have done for me and my family. So, I’ll just say that I THANK YOU for helping me get a new start in life. Your efforts will not be forgotten."
E. Zamora — June 2010
"Thank you Mr. Stouwie. From the bottom of my heart, thank you! Words could not fully express my gratitude to you for what you’ve done for me and my family. I will never forget it, and I will recommend you to everyone I know."
R. Flores — February 2010
"This is a much delayed 'THANK YOU' for the work you did on my son's behalf. I (we) would highly recommend your services to others in our position... You presented yourselves well when we met and did all that you said you would do."
Lynn M. — November 2009
"I want you to know that I hold no illusions as to how this came about. I could have been the best behaved, hardest working, most educated inmate in the world, but they'd never have seen me for who I am and what I am all about were it not for you and Mr. Moore... I will never be able to thank you enough for that. Really... In your letter, you said that you had your doubts about how the board would see my case. I didn't. You're a good man. I knew you'd give your best. That's you. That's how I know I got what I got. I knew when I first met you, you were good. You didn't bullsh*t me. You were honest and open. Being in here, you develop a good B.S. radar... I'll always be grateful to you."
Jonathan G. — October 2009
"I am writing to let you know I am completely grateful for all your help. I was telling my mother that I really don't think anybody else could've pulled it off. Thank you so much... You've proven to be a winner."
Ricardo S. — October 2009
"Mr. Stouwie, Thank you for all your help. I was really shocked on 10-9-09 when I got my FI-1."
Michael P. — October 2009
"Mr. Stouwie, My family and I want to thank you very much for the accomplishment in our son's parole case. I really, really appreciate all the hard work that you and your staff put into it. I know there aren't enough words I can write to thank you. After many long years our son will be able to return home. He has been missed and loved. Please know that you have made a little girl's heart rejoice. She is so excited about the reunion between her and her daddy."
Ms. S and family — September 2009
"I want to personally thank you for your help. I will be eternally grateful to you and your firm. Please let Mr. Moore know that I appreciate all of his help and patience with my grandmother. His commitment to his work is unquestionable. My children will be sooooo happy. Hopefully one day soon I can take you to dinner to show my appreciation. See you soon. God Bless."
Peter L. — August 2009
"I would like to thank each of you personally (Mr. Stouwie and Mr. Moore) for the hard work and dedication that was put into my case. I am very pleased with the results. To hear the joy and excitement in the voices of my wife and daughter as they told me the good news is beyond words and I am very grateful to you both."
Phillip M. — July 2009
"Both Reymundo and I would like to thank you for effectively presenting Reymundo's case to the parole board. We are grateful for your dedicated service and we appreciate your patience, your kindness, and all your hard work that helped make parole possible."

Thank you so much for all you have done. You can't possibly imagine how much my family and I appreciate what you have accomplished. Don't be surprised if you get a call one day so I can buy you lunch at the Riverwalk."

Josh F. — December 2008
"A huge burden was lifted off of me when I read your letter... I could never express my overwhelming gratitude on what a fine job you did. I'm out! Again, Thank You, and God Bless."
O. Gonzales —October 2008
"I am sending you this letter to thank you for all your efforts with regards to my FI vote. My blessings go out to you and your staff."
C. Edwards —September 2008
"Thank you, Gracias, and all the gratitudes out there. I give you credit. You are a man of your word. You never promised nothing. I never was expecting a "yes" answer. I knew it would be hard, but you made it work out. You just don't know how I am feeling right now... May you grow your legacy in here and around the state to the highest level. You deserve it."
L. Eloy —July 2008
