Excellent Service: Case resolved successfully

After leaving a message with Jason's office, he contacted me promptly and listened very carefully to the details of my case, and from the very beginning of our interaction it was obvious to me that he is a true expert in his domain, as he was familiar with many similar situations and knew exactly wha...t could or would happen and where my case could go wrong. He requested a reasonable fee for his services, and (to my relief) made it contingent upon a successful resolution of my case. Overall I am very happy that Jason worked on my case, and would recommend him to anyone who might require his services.

Outstanding attorney!!

Mr. Jason Wapiennik was a pleasure to work with. He responded quickly to my never-ending questions, and he worked very hard on my case. We received our money back from Customs as Mr. Wapiennik had predicted during our first consultation. Having Customs confiscating your money is a traumatic experienc...e. However, Mr. Wapiennik has the ability to calm the situation due to his experience in Customs Laws. I highly, highly recommend this attorney!!! His attorney fee is reasonable.

Professional, honest, efficient, understanding

Title says it all! Jason took on my case and from start to finish, handled it professionally, kindly, and very efficiently. The entire process was painless, his rate extremely reasonable, and the outcome was exactly as he predicted. I truly appreciated the fact that he took the time to inform me of ...all status updates regarding the case, regardless of the time or day (I've never worked with a lawyer who replied even on weekends!) Thank you so much Jason!

Jason was always on my side

I was so anxious and nervous when I get seizured but thanks to Jason, he put me at ease. Told me every step we could/will take, let me review everything he was going to send to the CBC, answered all my questions thoroughly and responded very quickly. He was professional and guided me through everythi...ng. I would recommend him to anyone that has to go through it.

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.
