Jason Kenneth Baril

In January of 2014 My wife of 32 years was taken from us in a crash caused by another driver turning left into my Wife's lane of travel. After contacting the firm of Ogle, Elrod and Baril, Jason Baril came to my home in Kingsport Tn. and assured me that he would handle the case HIMSELF and immediate...ly file a wrongful death lawsuit against the opposing driver's insurance company. After waiting a week, I called their office and learned my case had been handed off to a "Rookie" that had been with the firm for one and a half years and whose specialty was family law. Jason promised me an accident reconstruction report would be done immediately when at my house the day after the crash. Every time I tried to contact Mr. Baril I was transferred to a voice mail system, my calls were never returned and no lawsuit was ever filed as promised! There was no accident reconstruction report ever performed, only a roadway assessment of the intersection and it was seven months before any engineers ever showed up on the site of the crash. Upon handing my case to the "rookie lawyer" She did not file a lawsuit but instead started negotiations with the insurance company of the opposing driver that caused the crash. Anybody with a brain knows that if a suit isn't filed an insurance company doesn't have to divulge how much coverage is there! This firm did nothing I asked. Had they done what I asked, The opposing driver would have been indicted by a Grand Jury on Vehicular Homicide charges, but the other driver walked away scot-free to possibly cause another fatal crash! later! This law firm is INEPT at what they claim they will do for you and I wouldn't hire them to do a Divorce case, much less a Wrongful death action! I would not recommend this firm for any legal action you may encounter! They are only interested in making a quick settlement and moving on to the next case. These people will not fight for you or your loved ones, They are settlers!

I had a very unusual case that revolved around the wrong plate and being charged with DUI. My stupidity produced a very difficult case for any attorney. After talking with several only Mr. Baril was willing to assist me with my case. He used some very savvy tactics with the D.A. and was able to al...low me to keep my license without having it suspended. He was attentive, reassureing and competent.
