This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Jason Sammis STANDS ABOVE THE REST APPEAL WON!

Jason took my difficult appeal case after many attorneys turned me down. I needed to file an appeal for a wrongful DUI conviction and Jason filed a powerful appeal showing how my basic civil rights were violated. In filing and winning this appeal, Jason went head-to-head against the bureaucracy of P...asco County! This appeal has set a precedence for all future related DUI cases. Jason fought my case with vigor and WON MY APPEAL! Jason has my complete respect and I will forever be grateful to him. L.M. Olson

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
