Dissatisfied. Client.

In acquiring the help of a lawyer in the future, I would not use this firm again. Just went through three years of negotiation just for the lawyer to get more than his client, after repeatedly, being told that wouldn’t happen. Not only with the dissatisfaction of them transferring me to another law f...irm to handle my case after I hired them, the results was not satisfactory. I reached out to Jason Ferguson personally about my dissatisfaction, at this point he had gotten paid for a case that he didn’t even handle. I haven’t heard anything back from him. I would not recommend JASON FERGERSON LAW GROUP!!!

I recommend

I recommend the Ferguson Firm because of the paralegal, his wife Camelia Portillo. She works very hard to get the job done on your behalf. She a sweet God-fearing woman. They both work very diligently with you and they assure you that everything will be ok.

Jason Ferguson is the absolute EPITOME of a great attorney.

Jason was incredible. He answered every time I called (or, at least returned my calls quickly), and spoke to me very respectfully. He always asked how I was doing, and how my family were doing, before talking business. When my case went to court, he looked at the judge, and said, "Your Honor, we will... be..." And the Judge held up his hand, stopping him. Upon stopping him the Judge said, "Save it, Mr. Ferguson, the case is dismissed" THAT, ladies and Gentlemen, is Jason Ferguson. I would HIGHLY recommend retaining him for ANY case.....but only if you expect to win.

Did what I wanted, slow communication

I had a speeding ticket and needed it reduced. He was able to get that done for me no problem. He was sometimes slow to respond, but I know most of that is because the court system itself is very slow (there was a 4 month gap between the two trial dates, for a speeding ticket). Like the one star revi...ew said, I did send a money order to him (though the money was clearly addressed to the court) so that he paid for me and I never had to go to court. I was worried about hiring him based on what the one star reviewer said, but everything worked fine; you just have be really patient and trust that Jason is working for you.
