ONE WORD to describe ...EXCEPTIONAL!

I was referred to Daris by a close friend. He is extremely professional and polite. He had no hesitation to have our meeting at my office on a Saturday afternoon. Daris was very thorough about the specifics of the case and how he could resolve the matter. He then showed up to court on time and ...OUTCOME: Had two of three charges DISMISSED! and the last charged was at the minimum. I would recommend darius to anyone in a heartbeat.

Attorney, Daris B. Jackson

I retained Mr. Jackson to represent my 17 year old in a criminal matter. Mr. Jackson answered all of our questions and listened to my concerns. He explained the severity of the charges, discussed possible outcomes and prepared us for our first court appearance. Mr. Jackson arrived to court on time... and was professional in both his appearance and approach. He advocated for my child and got us the best possible outcome. At the end of the case he even had a talk with my child offering advice and words of encouragement.

Daris B Jackson Esq. saved me.

I consulted with, then hired Mr. Jackson for a what I knew would be a wrongful eviction. Mr Daris B Jackson was also hired to help me fight and win a payment demand order I was given by my landlord. Not only was Mr. Daris B Jackson able to help me keep my home but he was able to get the original dema...nd order vacated saving me stress, worry and thousands of dollars. Daris B Jackson help ease my worries and stress by being both professional and knowledgeable. He prepared me for the cases and when I wasn't able to appear because of work, was able to give me clear information of what had occurred. I have and will continue to recommend Mr Jackson to any of my coworkers, family or friends needing an attorney as he specializes in many areas of the law and seemed to have a great working relationship with the court, its staff and even his advisories as I was able to watch him handle other cases quickly.

Mr. Jackson was very helpful with explaining the different ways the case may go and highlighted the most likely route. Mr. Jackson was available via email, phone or in person (and over the weekend if needed), whichever mode of communication that suited me best. Great lawyer to work with.

Highly Recommend!

He was extremely attentive to my needs. It was such a little case, I was surprised at how he went above and beyond to make sure I felt like a valued client. He was extremely knowledgeable, competent, courteous, and put me at ease about all my concerns.
