Review Jay Reese

Great Lawyer That Won My Case

Posted by

Jay Reese handled a business case for me. After a very dishonest business refused to pay for services, Mr. Reese was successful at the trial in building a case and I received the money owed. Not only did he do a great job, but he is a great person as well. Lots of integrity and honest. Would recommend highly.

Excellent lawyer and a great humanbeing
