Stressful HOA conflict

Jason guided me through a stressful foreclosure by the HOA where I live and was prepared to go to court for me if necessary. His fee was very reasonable for the -service he provided.

Thorough and prompt

Jason helped me with a HOA related real-estate agreement. Him and his staff were professional, thorough and prompt. Would recommend them highly.

Not only a good attorney but a great person.

I needed Jasons Help with a business licensing agreement and a merchandising agreement I was asked to sign. I am so glad I asked him to look at them because he found several things that needed to be changed in my favor and the best interest of both parties. If I didn't have Jasons help, I could have... signed these agreements that would have been a big problem if I ever needed to dispute something court with the agreements. Jason was great at explaining to me, and the other parties involved what and why the changes are necessary.

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.
