Top-notch attorney!

If you're looking for knowledgeable representation who will go to bat for you every time, Jason McLean is the one to call. Jason's keen intellect, legal expertise and overall passion for what he does every day makes him not only a tremendous attorney, but an all-around phenomenal person. He works har...d for every client, every time, and interacts with his clients in a professional, but caring, manner. The empathy he showed me during my case demonstrates that being an attorney isn't just a job for him; he truly strives to make a positive impact in his clients' lives. He's dedicated, kind, thorough in explaining the legal process, and extremely dedicated to finding the best solution for everyone. Jason understands that family law can be an extremely emotional and stressful process. His calm demeanor, trustworthiness, and can-do attitude put him in a category all his own. You cannot go wrong with consulting or hiring Jason or anyone on his team. I appreciate all of the support he's given me over the years.

As good as it gets!!

From beginning to end, Mr. McLean was an outstanding lawyer to have in my corner during my divorce. He's well educated, well spoken, and a great teacher of the legal process. I learned a lot along the way: precedent, what I can reasonably expect to occur for my situation, etc. Mr. McLean's attent...iveness and attention to detail are exceptional! Quick responsiveness! And a class act all the way through! Simply put: I made the right move by having him as my representation. I couldn't be happier with my choice in him & PLM (and my outcome).

FIVE STARS

Parvey, Larson, and McLean has exceeded my expectations through their knowledge and expertise in law. Throughout my child custody case, Mr. McLean has shown tremendous determination, professionalism, and passion for his work. His work ethic and timely responses are among the many positive qualities n...oted throughout my case. He is highly skilled and takes the time to make sure you’re understanding every single step in the process. I would highly recommend PLM to anyone in the FM community. Thanks to PLM for the outstanding outcome with my situation.

Jason McLean

I hired Jason for a child custody case involving my ex-wife. Jason and his team were very professional and very thorough and even though the case was settled before court if it went to court I would have gotten the result I desired. From top to bottom a really good experience would recommend to an...y one who needs a good child custody lawyer.

Jason McLean

Jason assisted me during a very difficult time in my life with the utmost professionalism. He took the time to explain and work though all of my questions/concerns. I had worked with a different lawyer previously for months that resolved nothing and cost me a huge amount both financially and emotiona...lly. Jason was recommended by a friend and agreed to take my case on. He took over and had a deal worked out within days. His total fees were much, much less than I expected. I was shocked when I received back the remaining porton of my retainer. I would recommend Jason to anyone. I could not have been more pleased with the service he provided me.

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.
