A RESPECTFUL KNOWLEDGE ATTORNEY IS THE YOUR BEST FRIEND..

My family member was arrested and charged with every charge you can think of from WHITE COLLAR CRIME to DRUGS. While he was being represented by the Public defender’s office he was looking at Guidelines upto 20 years or life. When we hired Mr. Jay White the whole scenario changed. The conversations i...n court deceased with the angry tone and disbelief. With a respectful atty handling a case we saw no resolution to, Mr. White always assured us that no one is guilty until proven GUILTY. AFTER 6 more of court hearings my family member got 22 charges dropped/consolidated and the outcome was the best several years of regular probation with early termination…I recommend Mr. Jay Allen White with no doubt…give him a chance to show you that your current situation is NOT your final destination!!

Drug crime

Mr.jay white I’m not going to say his a horrible lawyer beacuse his not. His been a attorney from the 80s. Which says it all that his not passionate about his clients and rather people take plea deals then go to trial. On cases that are super beatable I would think twice before hiring him

amongst the best.

not only would I recomend him, but I have several times... Jay White is a good person. Tells you the facts, doesnt sugar coat, lets you make informed decisions...and takes the time to answer questions..and most importantly...calls you back. I trusted him with 30 years of my freedom, and he is the o...nly attorney I would even consider giving that kind of trust to again.
