First impressions are everything with this guy laziness is in his appearance

Jason Lambert was hired because I was sued for an ejectment eviction, a personal lawsuit and a shareholder lawsuit. He was hired as an a pellet attorney. He allowed the other side to file a duplicate lawsuit he missed summary judgment got 150,000 it was already denied penalties and interest told me n...ot to pay it. We could appeal rid of possession was issued, please assets not in commercial eviction. Then he proceeds to tell me to clear bankruptcy to fix him missing summary judgment. The judge takes possession taxes denied in another case then after the deposition, the other side to terrorize us for two years, rescheduling my deposition multiple times he was said he wasn’t ready and told me he wanted 10,000 for arbitration and quit the case First and first impressions are everything with this guy sweating all over my paper Work Not letting me talk at one hearing missing deadlines their firm wrote off my And apologized for his actions, but that doesn’t help my case or losing everything we own because of this guy

Obtaining a General Contractor License

I came across Jason's information on-line by chance. I was very skeptical at the start. However he patiently explained my options and made them simple when they seemed very complicated. I agreed to use his services and am so glad that I did!! He and his assistant Jessica were always responsive an...d available for my questions. They sent me all the forms prepared and updated me regularly on the status of my case. Nowadays, it is rare to find such professionalism and honestly in many business. I highly recommend Jason Lambert for any of your legal issues or questions.

Contractor Licensing

I found Atty Lambert online and contacting him regarding getting my FL CGC, as I was a licensed Contractor for 30 years in MA. He explained the process thoroughly to me and made it seamless. He kept me informed and answered all my questions during the process. Dealing with the state authority couple...d with many numerous forms needed, it was very good deal for his service and would recommend him to all.

Doug Smith- Owner DRS&C- CGC Lic in Florida

I have been a licensed GC in California for 20 years; Now I Hold a CGC license in Florida as well!! I want to give my highest regards to Jason and his Team (Jessica)!! I am a very skeptical person by nature. I read so many conflicting reports on my General Contractors Lic from California being recipr...ocal in the state of Florida I had no idea what direction to go. I came across Jason's website in my search and reached out. I had a phone consult with Jason, and he said he has had a great success rate of getting Ca. Contractors their license in Florida. Me being me, that did not convince me, even his reviews did not convince me, but I had to try something. I paid his requested retainer, which was very reasonable for the service provided, and followed his instructions. Provided documents needed, which weren't a lot. I rolled the dice. I started the process in Dec. 2022 and just got my Fl. CGC Lic. last week 3/23. So about 4 months for the process. There were a couple additional docs and some changes needed to the application by the DPBR, Jason and his team (Jessica) took care of these changes and docs needed. Not only did I get my license, but because of my experience in construction and length of time I was licensed in California, I was able to get the CGC license, which if you know, is the best possible license to have for a GC in Florida. I was not expecting that. But Jason and his team saw this and applied for the appropriate license for me based on all of the above. I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking to dive into this process.
