Jay is attentive and thorough. He responds promptly and follows up with all parties in a timely manner. His attention to detail has made me comfortable during this process.

Excellent

My girlfriend and I are expecting our first baby, and I wanted to know what my parental rights were. I had gone for a consultation with Jay Baum, and he was very thorough and helpful in advising me. He might be rough around the edges, but he was extremely upfront and truthful with me on every questio...n I had. I would definitely hire him in the future, if needed, and I highly recommend him to any of my friends who are in the same situation. I appreciate all the help.

Divorce

Having the cards stacked against you from the beginning with an impossibly difficult adversary on the opposing end, Jay Baum was fair and did not bend when he felt I was getting the shaft. He fought for my rights as a father and I was comfortable with the outcome of my divorce. I would recommend Jay ...Baum in the future for Divorce, child support, visitation and custody.
