Lies

Jason Smith refuses to follow simple instructions when asked to write up a custody agreement. Both parties were in agreement on the divorce but he chose to schedule a court date and lie to us about canceling it. He then proceeded to charge for the court date which was supposed to be canceled. Additio...nally he refused to call back or even email for weeks until after the court date so he could beg for more money. He was of course fired and easily replaced by someone more competent which was not hard to find at all.

Top Tier Attorney

Jason took on a two year old very litigious case and handled it with such expertise and care. Everything that a person could hope for in an Attorney; Jason was. In a short amount of time Jason exhibited so much knowledge, reason, and compassion that clients desperately need in family law. He went abo...ve and beyond to make sure that he showed up for me. Jason is an attorney that genuinely cares!! My only regret is not finding him sooner! I am forever grateful for Jason!

WIN!

Jason 's performance in the courtroom was not only riveting, but highly effective as he won our case after identifying flaws in my ex's case who was trying to take me for all of my income. Thankful!

Save your money

Doesn't return calls, took the money, and basically ran. No fighting in court, every time you call the office you get an offsite answering service and the calls never get returned. Emails don't get returned. Awaiting his signature for the divorce. Going on a month now.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
