Best Lawyer Hands down!

I've used Jay for years. I think he is a fantastic attorney and his paralegal Rachel is awesome! They worked hard on my custody battle for my 2 grandkids which we won hands down with prejudice ( which means they can't ever file to get them back) no set visitation rights for the Mother and my son was ...just a boy of 14 so he wasn't even old enough to have any rights anyway. He represented me on other traffic violations and got it reduced down to hardly anything at all. Yes he is busy because HE'S THAT GOOD! And in such high demand. He always got back to me and I even have his personal cellphone number to reach him when I was told to call him. I wouldn't recommend anyone else. He also has always answered legal questions I've shot his way on numerous occasions and has referred me to the correct attorneys who cover the situation if it was something he didn't do. People with bad reviews obviously haven't ever had to hire any other lawyers before

Untrustworthy

I hired this attorney two to three years ago for a custody matter. He agreed to full custody case which included establishment of parenting time and the custody case itself. He allowed the defendants lawyer to establish parenting time with no rebuttal stating that we would focus on custody. Even whe...n the parenting time was not adhered to, he didn't fill charges. He was never prepared, never talked to any witnesses that I listed, hardly ever returned phone calls. After the establishment of parenting time, I decided that this attorney was not equipped to handle our represent my best interest. I paid 3500 up front for the entire two part process. He has not given the custody monies back after he was let go. He has not responded. Although he knows he did not completed any work on the custody hearing. Do not pay this attorney up front. Not an honest person with good work ethics.
