Posted by Jeff | May 21, 2021 | Hired Attorney

Absolutely fantastic, without a doubt hiring Mr Fox was one of the best decisions I have ever made.

Mr Fox did absolutely what he said he would do. He reviewed my case and gave me his legal opinions and advice on how to proceed. He made complicated legal issues clear-and explained my options.He never promised me the outstanding results that I received but his advice was spot on !! I cannot begin to... thank Mr Fox or his staff for all their hard work, that advice has paid off in a big way.

Exellent and Professional

Jason helped me get to a very satisfactory settlement at mediation and explained the process thoroughly. He was steadfast and fought for the best possible outcome for over 3 hours. If you have a work comp injury contact him, very knowledgeable and experienced.

Great attorney

After being denied benifits, Mr. Fox walked me through the legal process and was able to secure not only my benifits but wages I had lost. If it wasn't for Jason, I would have been another uniformed injured worker that was left out in the cold. After my injury, it was good to finally meet someone who... cared. Thank you, Jason!

Excellent Attorney and Law Firm

I am a Vocational Rehabilitation Forensic Consultant and have worked with Jason on various cases for over 10 years. He has the intuition and drive to function as a lawyer. He thoroughly understand the issues of his case, relating to employability and does not request me to " to make a silk purse ...out of a cow's ear." He does not argue, when told a particular claimant can work. He is prepared for trial, if required. He is a dependable and dedicated family man, so he possess the values one should look for, when seeking representation by an attorney. I proudly recommend Jason Fox and the Carlson-Meissner Firm!

"The two words opposing counsel never want to see on the bottom of the pleading -Jason Fox. This means they're going to have to work exceptionally hard, pay more money to Jason's client than they wanted to and in the end be on the losing side of the case. Jason Fox gets higher settlements for his clients than any other Worker's Compensation lawyer in Florida. If you want a hard-working, hardcharging dedicated workers compensation lawyer this is your guy."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
