Knowledgeable and reliable

Would hire Jay again!

Replied last October 19, 2022I am very sorry you feel this way. Due to client confidentiality, I am unable to publicly discuss the facts of your case. Under the less-than-ideal circumstances presented in your case, I stand by the legal course of action suggested. Again, I am sorry that you feel you were not adequately represented, and I wish you the best of luck with your new attorney.
