John Grant, Estate planning Attorney
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I proudly and strongly endorse this lawyer. I have known Jay for over 15 years and he is one of the sharpest legal minds in the country. In law school he was a champion trial advocate at Stetson Law School, the top trial school in the country. He is a former prosecutor and has served our country in the military. He knows his stuff and I consider him a man of impeccable integrity and high honor.
