The man for the job!!!

I hired Attorney Vernon Jackson, while facing some very serious federal accusations. Not only was my freedom on the line, but also my professional licenses. Attorney Jackson understood the severity of the situation and immediately took action. I don’t know about you but when you’re in the fight for y...our life, you need and want someone that’s equipped and ready to go to battle on your behalf. Attorney Jackson immediately fixed the situation. No jail time, no record, and professional licenses still in great standing. I highly recommend.

My son was facing a very serious felony and prison time. His whole life/future was in jeopardy. We hired Attorney Jackson and he was terrific. He was professional, thorough and highly effective. My son did not receive a conviction or any jail time. We are very appreciative of Attorney Jackson’s hard ...work and fearlessness on our behalf.

Horrible

If I could give him a 0, I would. He did absolutely nothing for my case. If I hadn’t called the court myself to ensure my court date had been set a warrant was going to be issued for my arrest. I could get a hold of him. He made promises to call and never did. Just terrible. A complete waste of my mo...ney. Thankfully I didn’t give him all the money upfront. I will definitely be reporting him to the bar association.

This Lawyer is a Joke

This lawyer was retained and Did nothing for my case. Can you believe that the public defenders office actually represented me and did everything to free me.(LOL) This attorney actually robbed my family by taking our money. He did not earn a dime of the retainer. (No court appearances, phone calls, J...h visits) ..Nothing.... I will deffinitely report him to the Florida Bar TODAY!!!!

It could have been real bad

I was facing a 3rd degree felony. Mr. Jackson step in quickly got the facts and noticed discrepancies in the report. Atty Jackson came to my bond hearing and got the judge to greatly reduce bail. Vernon fought hard to keep me out of the system (jail, probation). As a result of his tough negotiation... there was no conviction. I would recommend Atty Jacksons services to anyone seeking legal advice.
