A True Blessing in Legal Matters

I have had the pleasure of working with Jerry Fabus on several legal matters, and I can confidently say that he is one of the most intelligent, thorough, and caring lawyers I have ever encountered. He is transparent and honest, demonstrating the utmost integrity in every situation. In one particul...ar case, he took the time to listen carefully to my concerns before proceeding with his legal strategy. It was clear in court that he is highly respected, with judges holding him in high esteem. I highly recommend Jerry Fabus to anyone in need of legal support. My family and I can attest to the fact that he is truly a lifesaver when it comes to navigating complex legal issues.

Incompetent

My family retained Jerry Fabus to represent our son in a legal matter and now realize the outcome could not have been worse had my son choose to represent himself. Jerry never conducted one face-face meeting with my son prior to court. Jerry filed motions without consent from my son. Furthermore, Jer...ry failed to inform my son of his need to hire a court recorder so there is no official record of court proceedings; this fact eliminated any chance of success on appeal to a higher court. Jerry repeatedly told my son the matter was insignificant and he most likely would only receive a “slap on the wrist” from the judge. Jerry showed up in court with only a blank legal pad and pencil. My son received the maximum sentence allowed by the law. The results of Jerry Fabus’ incompetence has had a devastating impact on our entire family. Reader be ware; do not retain the incompetence attorney under any circumstance.

#1 family attorney

Best lawyer around! I tried hiring other lawyers for twice the price but Mr fabus is the best! I messed up and hired Dustin jones the first time. Bad mistake. Had to switch to Jerry fabus. #1 best family attorney period!

Beware

I personally caution anyone against using Mr. Fabus. Mr. Fabus, although intelligent, comes across as distracted, distant, ill prepared, arrogant, and self consumed. I speak from personal experience and this is simply THE TRUTH. You’ll get more bang for your buck self representing. Mr. Fabus may have... been a decent lawyer at one time but that time is no more. Stay aware my friends.

%100 Disappointment

%100 Disappointing. I felt like I was dealing with my ex all over again. Everything i say is wrong, Took personal offense to every other sentence i made. And it would take 4 sentences to explain why he shouldn't have got offended at the first sentence. Refused to do any homework on the case with 2 we...eks until court hearing. Would Not hear any evidence i dug up. His strategy is to take the 1st plea that comes his way. He was unable to see through the opposing councils lies and exaggerations and would believe the opposing councils gossip %100 over my facts.. Has even admitted to me in an email that, If you wanna fight this case, I am Not you Guy. So, If you need someone to take the 1st plea offered and Not fight for you,,, but give You resistance at every step you try to make,,, Jerry is your guy. His soft hands will make your hearing go very easy and smooth, for anyone but you :O) %100 Disappointment
