This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

He’s puts his clients needs first

Mason and his team of para professionals provided me with excellent service. Several larger law offices declined my case but he took on my case, even when the odds where against us. He worked overtime to produce award winning results. He was able to secure my settlement in a short manner of time. He ...communicated with me every step of the way. I would recommend him to anyone!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Mason is one of the best lawyers I know and he is one of the few lawyers my age that I go to for advice. I can honestly say he was born to be a lawyer and has one of the best legal minds of anyone I know. He gets excellent results in trial and is able to connect with the jury, but also is able to successfully argue the most complicated legal issues in front of any judge. Not only is he extremely talented, but he's also fearless and will take on any sized opponent in order to ensure his client's receive justice. If I was ever seriously injured and needed help, I would feel absolutely confident with him as my attorney and I couldn't recommend him more."

"Mason is highly intelligent, competent, and absolutely relentless when it comes to spotting and attacking legal issues - I know this first hand when we tried an armed robbery case as opponents years ago. He was professional at all times and I enjoyed working with him. I recommend him without hesitation."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Mr. Kerns is an incredibly talented, caring and unrelenting attorney who does not know the definition of the word "quit." I've had the honor of working with Mason and there is not a harder working more competent lawyer in the business. If I or a loved-one or a close friend were hurt, and it was not their fault, I could not imagine calling anyone else before Mason. It's what we in the industry call a "no-brainer." He is just a phenomenally strong lawyer."

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.
