      Review Demere Mason

      Great Lawyer for Divorce

      Posted by

      Demere was great to work with throughout the entire process and his knowledge and experience in the Family Law realm was extensive and without it I certainly would not have had the favorable outcome that I was awarded. I would highly recommend him.

      Knowledgeable and experienced lawyer

      Posted by

      I hired Mr. Mason ll to represent me in a custody modification. He made sure I understood any risks of potential outcomes, explained a strategy which he thoroughly executed, and was transparent about options I had, even if it wouldn’t benefit him. He was very knowledgeable and experienced with family law. This knowledge and experience was very beneficial during crucial times all throughout the case. His staff is professional and helpful.

      Modification and Counter Sued

      Posted by

      I was referred to Mr. Mason by a friend that had used his services in the past. Mr. Mason represented me in a professional, friendly, honest manner in which he made sure that I understood the risks, potential outcomes etc. in the case. I was pleased to have been able to settle something so quickly that was unnecessary in the first place to have to do. Although I hope that I do not need additional legal counsel, I would not hesitate to hire Mr. Mason again.

      Bingo!

      Posted by

      Hiring Dems was a big win for my divorce and DV case. He really knows what he is doing and uses his past extensive case history's to guide you in probable outcomes. He kept me on track to finalize quickly saving me the cost of a trial and unneeded mental anguish. Hire him before your spouse does.

      I am extremely satisfied with the outcome of my case!

      Posted by

      Mr. Mason handled my case with compassion and logic. He fully explained the possible outcomes and what he expected to happen, which was dead on. Although I hope to never need his services again I would not hesitate to return to his office for any family law matters.

      Excellent Counsel

      Posted by

      Mr. Mason provided excellent counsel on my non-contested divorce. His recommendations helped us agree to our Parenting Plan without any frustrations from either party. He also provided knowledge to help me avoid an alimony request. I highly recommend J Demere Mason II to assist in your non-contested divorce. He and his team took a lot of stress out of a very stressful situation.

      Professional and knowledgeable

      Posted by

      Mr. Mason was recommended to me by a friend for help with a child support modification case. I was extremely pleased with the professional and knowledgeable legal counsel that he provided. Throughout the entire process I felt that he always ensured I was well informed of my rights and provided me with clear direction to help me make informed decisions. Ultimately, I believe I received the best representation and was able to end my case with the best possible outcome for myself and my children. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a skilled family law attorney.

If anyone I know asked me who I'd recommend to help them with family law, divorce, or child custody issues, I would say Demere Mason in a heartbeat.
