The Very Best

Jason represented me for my second OWI. He was very thorough and easy to communicate with. I didn’t get any jail.

License Restoration Expert

I had 5 DUI's, multiple Driving While Suspended, and went at least 25 years without a license. Jason guided me in the right direction and successfully restored my driving privileges in Circuit Court. My life has completely changed. None of my latest success would be possible without Jason's expertise.... Follow his Plan. He'll get you Results.

Excellent Lawyer!

Jason helped me out after I got hurt in an auto accident. He was able to collect the maximum amount of compensation for me, which I'm very grateful for after having to deal with the injury, having to my auto insurance company, and then all of the trouble of replacing my car. Jason charged less than... I expected, was easy to reach whenever needed, and kept me well informed as everything progressed. I was really mad after the accident, but Jason handled the whole process and got me the best outcome! By the way, I was referred to him by a friend of mine who Jason helped with an OUIL (he got the case dropped!). When you have a legal problem, call Jason Barrix!
