Posted by David | May 1, 2017 | Consulted Attorney

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Excellent Attorney

Jay came highly recommended when I was corporate counsel for a large financing business client across the country. Jay's knowledge and experience made him my top choice to represent my corporate client. He was able to provide the experience of a big law firm but with the personal touch of a smaller... law firm. Jay is my go-to attorney in the West Palm Beach area.

A lawyer who cares even before representing you!

I have only met and been speaking with Jason for a little over a week now about my personal contract dispute and all of my options. He has taking several phone calls and emails from me to assist me with my case and I have not even retained him as my lawyer yet. (But I will be!!!) His willingness to ...go so above and beyond has renewed my faith about lawyers. I will right a further review later, but just wanted people to know this man actually cares about people who call and seek his advice.

Proven Professional

I am happy to submit a review for Jason Maier as I felt very comfortable in court with his expertise by my side. Being a successful lady entrepreneur of a Christian company, I have carefully selected those I bring into my inner circle. I chose Mr. Maier for two important reasons when I nee...ded legal assistance. Jason is a Christian man who not only leads his personal life with the highest of integrity but brings that standard of professionalism into his work place. Secondly, I have the privlidge of knowing Jason as a long time friend . It has been my privledge to watch this incredibly talented and committed man excell in his industry. I was more than happy with the service Jason performed for my company and would highly recommend him going forward.
