About Jared
Biography
I enjoy world travel, golf, and cooking. I am on the board of directors for Luke's Big Heart Foundation where we organize unique golf tournaments under the name "Tee-off for Tots". I have worked overseas for the Federated States of Micronesia, State of Yap Attorney General's office as second chair to the Assistant Attorney General. I spent a summer in London, England attending the London School of Economics through a program at the Univeristy of West Georgia studying international business and marketing. I am an Eagle Scout, and I enjoy spending time outdoors camping and hiking. I worked as a show-off bartender during college and through law school flipping bottles and blowing fire. I have worked with several reality TV personalities in my bartending career from "The Bachelorette" and "The Real World".

Save your money!
Poor excuse for a lawyer and law office. So unprofessional and very homey. All he studies is Trump. They never in the office. Never returns calls. Him are his sister that’s his sectarian. Wanted me to remind him of the court date that should tell you something I thought it should be the other way aro...

Do Not Hire This Lawyer
I would strongly recommend to anyone that thet should not hire this lawyer! I paid him an initial consultation fee and then he wanted a $ 1000 retainer to" investigate" my case. He did not repond to me for months and only did so after prompting from me. He could not provide any information that he ob...
Jared Craig
Replied last May 01, 2013As a legal expert, I use facts for the analysis to reach my conclusions. In some instances, my conclusions are not what a client wants to hear. I am bound to deliver bad news. As facts are learned, the anaylsis changes. When clients are not forthcoming in the initial consultation, no meaningful analysis can be done. I am not sure who David is, as I do not handle civil rights cases in any way. My practice involves Family Law, Criminal Defense, and now Bankruptcy. If anyone comes into my office for a civil rights matter, I refer the case to an appropriate firm. I am assuming that whatever final advice I gave David was confirmed by the other attorneys he spoke with. It sounds like he is misdirecting his negative feelings toward my practice, the messenger of the bad news.
Jared Benjamin Craig's Lawyer Endorsements
"I personally attest to the work Mr. Craig produces regarding family law and other matters. The clients Mr. Craig represents receive thorough and zealous advocacy through his "outside the box" thinking style and preparation. I would not give a second thought to sending one of my friends or family to Jared, which I believe to be the highest praise a lawyer has to offer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Jared grew up in our community and knows everybody. He is known as an aggressive advocate who gets great results for his clients. His command of process and communication are excellent."
