Awesome Jay

Jay is truly an amazing attorney. He listened patiently to all of my concerns and provided valuable information. He also provided several examples relating to my probate case. I would highly recommend Jay to anyone who wants a honest, patient, kind and knowledgeable attorney.

Difficuly-

Extremely difficult little man. Errogant and very unhappy little person. Too many good attorneys available to be burdened with his attitude.

Unexpected pleasure

Having decided to rewrite my will, I had to find a qualified attorney. After asking around and not finding anyone, I went online to look up lawyers in my area and read reviews. There were several that sounded good but either didn’t take the time to call me or requested that I make an appointment at $...300 an hour. Jay Fox was very gracious. He called me within an hour or two and we talked for maybe 20 minutes to a half hour. He assured me that he didn’t charge for this initial consultation, only if I decided to enlist his services. He was so helpful and detail oriented, unlike me. He thought of everything that I didn’t. He turned an unpleasant chore into a satisfying outcome. I highly recommend this man.

Every Detail Addressed

Jay recently helped my husband and I with our family will and trust . He executed every detail with professionalism and care . Each question was answered and explained in detail. I would recommend using Jay for your estate planning.

Very helpful, knowledgeable, accessible

Atty. Jay Fox, is very helpful, knowledgeable and we are very glad that we came across his profile when we were searching on how to start the process of getting trust and will. We could tell that he is very experienced and that he made the process as easy as possible. We could tell that he devoted ...his time in explaining things to us. We were very intimidated in starting the process but he made us feel reassured and he answered all of our questions. He was available when we needed changes to our documents, very honest and definitely professional. I have recommended him to my friends, coworkers and relatives. He understood our concerns and limitations (being first time in creating trust/ will ). We are extremely grateful that we found him and that he was able to help us with our trust and will creation.
