Jason and his team came to my rescue!!

Dear Jason, I just wanted to express my gratitude to you and your team for “coming to my rescue” when my current attorney was in over his head when the case expanded from a simple marital property partition case to a counter suit for back alimony, child support etc. I was amazed at the speed wh...ich you evaluated the facts in the cases, developed a plan of resolution especially facing scheduled court dates within 30 days to achieve a fair out of court settlement. I was also impressed at your direct verbal arguments to the Judge and opposing counsel to achieve a settlement and avoid further litigation. I would also like to thank Debora, Davika, Jewel and Barbara in responding to my many questions and executing your plan of success. In conclusion, you have my permission to use this letter as written to use as you see fit. I also included my contact information below if anyone would like to contact me for more detailed information regarding your firm's performance. Sincerely, A.A. “Fred” Catania Contact Info: Cell Phone: 609-602-9254 Email: [email protected]

A great lawyer

Jason is a rare gem in that he is knowledgeable, personable, and professional. I hired Jason to handle my divorce and I couldn’t have been more pleased. He was very thorough and smart. He took his time to explain the process, the law and my rights. He returned my calls and it was never difficult to g...et an appointment.

Terrible Lawyer!

I had Jason represent me in my custody/divorce matter and I must say that I was TERRIBLY disappointed!!! . He handled my case very poorly and recklessly. He puts on a big charm initially, making you think he actually cares for your case when quite to the contrary, it's the money in your pocket he ca...res for. If he feels you have money then he tries to lure you in like a snake and fraudently charge you as much as he can till he drains you out . I feel his charm is what got him to still exist in this buisness till today . He is knowledgeable and that is how he pulls you near him BUT beware cause what you sign in your contract with him as most of the time he doesn't even show up to your case!!! ( on the day of your court date he goes around trying to see how many new clients he can dig for money). It came to the point where during one ofmy recent case , he just disappeared !!. If I had to sum him up in few words : I would say he has the knowledge that he doesn't use wisely and truely help his clients. I can't honestly emphasize how sneaky and crooked this lawyer is, don't fall for his charm .You are better off representing yourself than have him represent you as your lawyer. The " apple doesn't fall very far from the tree with him " ....like father like son.

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.
