Outstanding Knowledge of Criminal Law and Appeal Specialist

Words cannot express our gratitude and appreciation for Jason Forman representing our son and giving him back the life he deserved. “Thank You, Jason” After hiring an attorney which basically took our money, we knew we had to look for the Best Appeal Specialist. After numerous days of searching, we ...ran across Jason Forman. We did some research on his knowledge, Appeals won, and criminal Law experience along with quite a few others. He had the best reviews and knowledge of criminal law and Criminal Appeals. We contacted him, and he was very impressing. We knew we had found the Best. He went over everything he found and how he was going to present this case to us, and my son in prison. Before doing any filing we both got copies of his proceedings. He was always there for us, and my son for any questions, and concerns. He answered phone calls promptly (with a very short time), along with any concerns, and questions. Our emails were returned shortly! He had so much patients with us and showed his dedication and understanding of the stress we were all under. He made us feel like we were his only client, although he was dealing with numerous more. There are so many attorneys out there, which promise you, they can resolve everything…but do nothing but harm you. Jason will not promise you anything he doesn’t believe he can do. But he has his own theories of how he can approach your case and will give you his full dedication. I cannot thank Jason enough for giving my son back the life he deserves. There are no words that can express our gratitude and thanks. All we can say is Jason Forman is the BEST Appeal Specialist and Criminal Appeal attorney. If you are searching for the best, look no further. He will always be recommended from us! Thanks So Much Jason, Our son will be home soon, and we owe it all to you! Words from our son: "Jason gave me my Freedom back. Very Experienced Appeal Specialist and Felony Crimal Lawyer. I owe it all to him! My name is JR. I am writing this review letter to inform you how Great of an attorney Jason Forman is. There is so much to say, but I will keep this brief. First and foremost, do your research on the background history of the attorney history of the attorney’s outcome of cases. This is how I came across Jason Forman, after numerous hours of me and my family searching. In 2015, I lost trial in Duval County, Fl. To (Count 1) Conspiracy to commit armed robbery and (Count 2) 2nd. Degree Felony Murder. I was later sentenced to 15 years (Count 1) and 22 years (Count 2). Immediately filing for an appeal and looking for an Appeal Specialist. Notice the Appeal Specialist Part! There are so many attorneys out there that paint that perfect picture, as my first Trial lawyer did. Jason spent a lot of time talking with my family and myself, which caught my attention. Most attorneys out there are very short, that’s even if you actually get to talk to them, instead of their associate. He always answered any questions, returned calls, and emails (immediately). He kept me updated, which can be hard. (Due to me being incarcerated). He never gave false hope or sold you a dream to say…Just FACTS! So Jason filed my direct Appeal arguing four very strong issues. With me working in the Law library at my institution, I researched how strong the case law was supporting what Jason was stating, in the Appeal. Well, the State comes back saying they concede to Fundamental error, on (Count 2). But, (Count 1) Conspiracy stays intact. With the Felony Murder conviction now reversed, I still had a 15 year sentence. That's where Jason once again showed his skills and got my sentence reduced to 5 years (DOC) in which I will shortly be home. Now, with that being said, I also want to tell you my mother can be quite persistent and Jason had nothing but patients with her. So, I wish to whoever reads this Good Luck! Keep your head up and never give up. Jason is highly recommended and experienced beyond the Best!"
