DON'T USE THIS LAWFIRM.

We hired your company to do a contest a gaurdianship, your lawyers told us everything we wanted to hear, The process revealed the incompetence of your staff, legal documents poorly put together, your attorney never showed up on time, hrs late to important hearing, always same excuse, (traffic) e...ven though everyone else made it. And on the most important day infront of the judge , we stood alone because he was late again, we lost everything due to the incompetence of this lawfirm. They didn't have the experience for this it clearly revealed itself, They just took our money. And made promises they clearly couldn't keep.

Excellent attorneys and staff

My family has worked with Mr. Porter several times over the years. Each of our experiences were different but the outcome was the same. We all had extremely positive results. I have referred many friends and family to Mr. Porter for assistance, and I will continue to highly recommend the firm to a...nyone in need of legal services.

INEFFECTIVE COUNSEL

We hired Mr. Porter to handle an Ineffective Counsel case for us. Unfortunately, we found HIM to be ineffective. He talked a good game when selling himself but right after we paid his fee in full, he was hard to reach; he took way too long to review documents; he did not answer e-mails or calls; wa...s not assertive enough when obtaining information from other entities or dealing with opposing counsel; we experienced delay after delay with him. He wasted our time and money and failed us on so many levels. He did not get one solitary thing that he promised us. Extremely disappointed. Would never recommend him.

One of the best lawyers in town!

I met Jason a couple of years ago. He listened to my case and gave me the best advice, he is very knowledgeable in law. The staff is very professional and courteous. Jason is the best lawyer I have seen around town. You have a problem pick Porter!

The best attorney in the Jacksonville area

After meeting with several lawyers, I came across Jason and scheduled a consultation. I was extremely impressed by his professional yet personable attitude and decided to hire him. Soon after, Jason was able to achieve the best possible outcome for my case. I would 1000% recommend this attorney for a...ny legal needs.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
