Jesse is great!
Jesse cares about his clients and he is really good at what he does. I hired him to defend my case and I'm very satisfied with the result. He helped me turn my life around and I'm forever grateful for his help.

Honest Man
Jesse is an honest and straight forward attorney. He answered questions when asked, made himself available when I needed him and argued for the truth. I'm thankful he was my attorney and I would refer anyone I know to him.
