Top notch

Excellent lawyer, well known in the courtroom. No games, gives it to you straight, no bs. Highly recommend. Regardless of prior reviews, I wouldn't hesitate to use him again.

Worst lawyer ever

Jacob is one of the worst lawyers to work in the system. He does really underhanded stuff and works with the district attorney when I was due to be released at a court appearance He decided to resign as my attorney. He is by far the worst attorney ever I would rather have a dead dog represent me

Poor attorney

I was assigned Jacob Painter to represent me in a criminal matter. He acted like he knew all there was to know about the law. He failed to listen to anything I said. He violated attorney client confidentially, he also violated my constitutional rights. I can prove he worked with the adversary and ke...pt me incarcerated. I have filed a complaint against him. As this is a review site it would be within anyone's best interest to not have this attorney represent you.

Bad review

He claims he knows his way around the court systems but definitely does not. After I had Mr. Painter as my attorney, I had multiply people come up to me telling to stuff that they shouldn't no and stating that Mr. Painter is there neighbor and he was discussing the case with his neighbors and whole f...amily, just be aware before hiring.
