Stellar Attorney! The best!

Jesse Haskins at J Haskins Law is an extraordinary Attorney! Five star! Flawless representation. I came to Jesse Haskins with a very complicated defamation and employment case and Jesse was able to navigate both cases with a calm confidence that was awe inspiring and reassuring. Jesse stepped outside... of his normal realm of defamation, to help also defend me in an aggressive employment and retaliation case. I was an emotional wreck during that year, and Jesse handled me with such grace and patience. Jesse never showed anger or loss of control. Jesse successfully defended me in my very complicated case. I am very satisfied with the outcome. Jesse was the calm within the storm, leading a team of three lawyers. Jesse Haskins and Sharmin Hibbert of J Haskins Law filed a very compelling Writ of Certiorari in the 5th District court of Florida. Jesse Haskins successfully defended me from disaster. I highly recommend Jesse! Jesse will fight for your rights! Brilliant attorney with such a great demeanor. You will be in excellent hands with Jesse.

Jesse is a true professional

We were so lucky to work with Jesse in a personal matter. He is truly a professional at what he does. He took the time to listen, support and guide us through a very stressful situation. I felt empowered to have him by our side. He was always available when we needed him, even on weekend and evenings.... He was prompt at getting back to us with updates and changes. He fees are fair as well! If you ever need a lawyer chose him. We are so thankful for him.

Social media defamation/slander

Contacted Mr. Haskins in regards to an individual slandering me on social media to a degree that could hinder my personal and professional life. We agreed to make the first step with a cease and desist letter. Mr. Haskins quickly created the draft and made sure any input/issues I had we're consid...ered. The letter was promptly sent out and sure enough was received from the offender after which the defaming social media content was removed. Overall I'm very satisfied with the results!

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.
