Hardworking and dependable

I went to Jason to file a criminal matter this past summer. He was very attentive to the specific needs of my issue. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Although, at times it was difficult to get a hold of him he always made sure to get back to me either later in the evening or the next day. He ...also gave me his cell phone number so I can could call him after hours if I had any questions. He was very dependable and aggressive when it came time for trial. I would recommend him to anyone that needs to deal with any criminal matter.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

I retained Jason after i was unable to get in touch with the lawyer that I normally use. I got in a dispute with my wife and I was charged with Aggravated Assault (a felony), Terroristic Threats, and Simple assault. My wife made up some serious allegations against me that I had pointed a gun at her,... that I had knocked her head through a wall, and that I had threatened to kill her. My bail was set at $500.000 and I was taken to jail. Within forty eight hours Jason had my bail reduced and I was able to be released from jail. The following Tuesday I had my preliminary hearing and Jason was able to negotiate a deal that resolved all my charges with a disorderly conduct. Before Jason became involved in the case, I was facing serious Jail time, he got me a deal where I got probation and will have a minimal impact on my future. He really came through for me. I would highly recommend him for any criminal charges that you may be facing.

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"If you’re looking for the best private practitioner in Northeast Pennsylvania, look no further. Gritty, tenacious, dedicated, and prepared. Attorney Beardsley hails from a small town and this makes him client oriented. He is an advocate for the “little guy.” He gives personal attention to every case and will fight for you no matter what. If you’re looking for a private attorney to suit any legal need he is your man. State, federal, trial or appellate cases, no matter the case at hand he has you covered."

Child custody lawyer | May 19

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I've worked on several cases against Attorney Beardsley in the last few years and I have to be honest, he is an excellent advocate. I would also define him as being honest and honorable, fair minded and guided not only by his client's needs but also by an ingrained sense of decency and a desire to achieve the right, fair result. I respect his ability and admire him as both a friend and a well-prepared, very bright adversary."

Experience

Rating:  3.2 (Caution)

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2025.

Stayed Suspension/Probation issued in PA, 2025

updated on 12/16/2025

Stayed suspension/probation means an attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. This type of suspension means the attorney has been suspended, but that the suspension is placed on hold (and ultimately removed) if the attorney complies with certain requirements. In this case the State also monitors the lawyer's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
