Jason Revel Maughan

I have been in business for 44 years and have dealt with many attorneys, started working with Jason about 15 years ago, he has worked on all of my business and personal matters across a wide range of issues. In every case he had an immediate grasp of the situation and quickly formulated game plans to... attack. He has the rare combination of not only knowing the law inside and out but also being incredibly street smart. Over many cases we have always prevailed even when I thought we didn't have much of a chance. I have so much confidence in Jason that I made him the executor of my estate.

I hired Jason to address a specific item. He filled time with tasks that did not need to be done nor for which I asked, he did not accomplish the task I requested, and then, when I refused to pay, he took the money from a retainer my mother had provided for unrelated work of hers. I was referred t...o Jason and he seemed confident and friendly. My situation was simple. A lien and freeze order were placed on property I was trying to sell. I had received an offer, gave the buyer's contact info to Jason, and asked him if he could satisfy their requirements to buy the property. Jason later answered that he could take care of it so I hired him. Later, Jason told me he completed. When I tried to proceed with the buyer, I discovered Jason had not reached out to him and had not satisfied the buyer's requirements. The buyer was not willing to purchase (understandably so), unless the freeze order and lien were removed. Jason only removed the lien. I asked Jason why. Jason said he was unable to remove the freeze order. I asked why he spent any time at all if he knew from the start that he wasn't going to be able to satisfy the buyer. He said he didn't know the buyer wouldn't purchase if the freeze order was still in effect. I asked Jason why his first step wasn't simply to call the buyer and ask. He didn't have a response other than I needed to pay him. I refused to pay Jason and he took the money out of a retainer my mom had with him for unrelated work.
