Fantastic Representation, EXCEEDED expectations

Jason represented me when I was charged with two drug possession charges; felony and misdemeanor. Jason was very open, honest, and always available when I needed to speak with him. He put in the work to get my felony charge dropped completely, and got me deferred prosecution on my misdemeanor charge.... Now in 6 months, this will be off my record once I complete the terms of my probation! This could have been much, much worse and life altering, but Jason ensured everything went smoothly and gave me piece of mind every step of the way. If you need representation, HIRE JASON OTT. I cant thank him enough.

AUTO INJURY

I was in an auto accident with a snow plow my work contracted. I was scared, worried and my job was put on the line. Jason Ott and his assistant Alana were always available by text, phone or email to provide me support. Jason fought dilegently to get me the settlement I deserved. I trust Jason and as...sure anyone that invests their time in him that he will take care of you in every aspect. He was so supportive it truly helped me get through the stressful situation of going through a law suit. Thank you Jason for everything you did for me. I am grateful and if I ever need a lawyer again you will be my first phone call. Elisa

Great Service

Jason and his team represented me on a 10 year old warrant that popped up on me. I was incredibly nervous until I talked to Jason, who assured me that with his help we can make this right for minimal interference on my day to day life, which was a huge relief. Jason and his team got my court fees low...ered by over $20,000, and were in contact with me throughout the entire course of events letting me know exactly what to expect. I am very grateful to Jason for the service! Above and beyond what I expected, at a great rate.

Part 1: How My Lawyer Became My Trusted Friend

In December of 2015 I was in a horrendous car accident. My SUV was totaled, I was hospitalized and had to spend months going through rehabilitation. At first I didn't think of consulting a lawyer and was just going to let my insurance handle this mess. Then I decided to consult a lawyer, but who? The...y're everywhere and how do you know if they are reputable? Sometimes I listen to the "Brian Dailey Law Program on WLS and decided to give them a call. Within a few hours Mr. Dailey provided me with attorney Mr. Jason Alan Ott, to undertake my Personal injury lawsuit. I liked him from the beginning because he explained to me in detail how he would work on my behalf (in layman's terms) Any question I had he would explain to me in detail. Both Jason and his Paralegal, Alana never let me feel that I was out of the loop on anything. He is a Five Star Advocate to his clients! On my behalf, he worked very hard to back me up by working with the other auto insurance company, the hospitals, rehab, physicians and any court proceedings if needed. I basically didn't have to do anything except get physically better. He always inquired as to how I was feeling physically and emotionally throughout my lawsuit and kept me updated on any issues. I have now claimed him as my "Family Lawyer" and have already referred him to several of my family and friends, who some now are working with him for their needs. Jason is definitely a rare find.

Perfection

I will sound like a Broken Record. Hands down Jason is the Best! My Story involved being arrested for cashing a check I didn't know was stolen. Jason called me on a Sunday-the day I had submitted inquiry about my humiliating arrest and scary future. As my Mom's husband pointed out (he a fellow busine...ssman) calling Customers to help them on a Sunday: is classy and rare. -When Jason did call, like everyone else here has already posted, Jason's humanity and lack of judgment soothed my fears and made me feel immediately better. All ended up well for me with Jason's help and expertise. Step by step he explained everything-and I do believe the time he took to send emails to the Prosecutor before my case appeared: more than made a dent. All this to say: Jason took great care of my case. He will take great care of you! (One last thing: court did go on 3 times. My Mom at first was hesitant about his flat fee. By the end she saw how much the flat fee helped, you just never know. And she adores him too.)
