Unprofessional

Mr. Volet was hired for a legal matter after having a consultation with him, in which he explained he had a lot of experience with. After Mr. Volet received his payments in full, and the case progressed, he started to fail to recall his full knowledge of the law, and serious issues with the loss o...f documents started. After discussing my grievances with Mr. Volet, he removed himself from my case.

Professional , and responsive. I felt safe with Mr Volet as my attorney. .

Jason Volet is a pheromonal attorney. He was a guiding force during a particularly challenging time in my life. He is very smart, and he knows the law well. He is a former prosecutor . I am very grateful that I found him, and hired him to represent me. I highly recommend him to anyone who is looki...ng for an attorney in the monmouth county area.

Highly Recommeded

I highly recommend Jason Volet! He was professional and direct from the start. I had 4 traffic tickets and was facing a license suspension on one. Jason told me right from the opening consultation that he believed he could please this all down to both a 2 point ticket and a no point with no license s...uspension. The process took a few months. On the day of court, Jason arrived early and was able to get me in and out within about 15 minutes with the plea agreement he described to me during the consultation! Deff recommended

Professional, knowledgeable, great outcome, reasonable cost

After a harrowing initial meeting with another attorney - who we decided NOT to engage - we did some more research and wound up making an appointment with Jason. What a great choice. My son had been pulled over by a Trenton police officer who said he passed a stopped school bus that had it's flash...ers on. Although my son never saw the flashers (and, btw, has a great driving record), it came down to his word against the police officer. We were clearly destined for a day in court. The first lawyer we met (NOT Jason, and not associated with Jason), turned out to be something of a sleaze who attempted to terrify my son with the prospect of 15 days in jail, 5 points on his driving record (which would double our car insurance for the next 3 years) and hundreds in fines. That first lawyer tried to get us to ante up a $5,000 retainer for the first of what he expected to eventually be 2 to 3 days of his time -- for a potential total of $15,000 in fees. We walked out, did some more research, and wound up making an appointment to meet Jason Volet. So glad we landed with Jason. He was professional, calm, extremely knowledgeable from all perspectives, having also been a prosecutor for 15 years. He took detailed notes, discussed next steps, and we agreed to his fixed fee for this type of traffic ticket -- a fraction of what the other attorney had demanded as his day rate. We met Jason at the court house on the assigned date. When the court doors opened, Jason met with the prosecutor well before the judge entered. They pulled my son's history (clean) and within a few minutes the prosecutor agreed to reduce the charges to a dangerous driving infraction if my son would plead guilty. Net penalty: $150 and a mandated fee of about $200 -- and zero points on my son's record. We were in and out of the courthouse within 2 hours, and were able to put this behind us quickly and economically with Jason's help. I would not hesitate to recommend Jason Volet. I hope we never have the need for a defense attorney again, but he is the first one I would call should the need arise in the future. Highly professional, very knowledgeable, good communicator, excellent value.

Very knowledgable excellent negotiation skills

This is my fourth time using Jason. Two criminal cases, one wreck less driving traffic violation, and one civil case. Very good lawyer. Always returns my calls briefly, and knows his stuff especially when it come to the criminal justice field. First time I got in trouble for a small marijuana charge... Jason got me conditional discharge which involved no jail time, a year of good behavior, and minor fines. The second time I was charged with a third degree felony for being caught with a larger quantity of marijuana and facing a couple years in prison. Jason got me no jail time, no community service, and just two years of probation, and small fines. I also received a wreck less driving ticket in between these cases and the prosecution was trying to take away my license for a year and Jason negotiated just fines being payed and two points on my license with no loss of license. In my civil case I had around 15,000 dollars taken from my family during a police raid and my car. He got me my car back and more than three quarters of the money taken for my family back. Great lawyer. Hire him and he'll take care of business.
