Posted by Larry | December 04, 2012 | Personal Injury

Sr. Turnover & Commissioning Manager (Project Manager)

I had a severe back injury in 2010 in Kansas City. Since I live and work in Houston and this incident happened while on business, I was at a quandry on how to proceed. I did my due diligence and searched the internet for attorneys that specialized in Personal Injury, specifically lower-back issues. ... Jason's name came up on several keyword seraches. After speaking with Jason over the phone, I chose Jason. Jason's character, professionalism andhonesty helped me make my choice (which was Jason). Jason provided me the insight and legal information to make a well-informed decision. I would highly recommend Jason to handle any legal action regarding Personal Injury, You are just going to like this guy. We have developed a friendship that I think will last. Just hire Jason and be rest assured that he will do his very best in representing you. Larry - Former Client

Litigation lawyer | Mar 16

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I had a very complex shareholder derivative action to file in Jackson County, Missouri. After speaking with several attorneys, I was advised to contact Mr. Pottenger who agreed to serve as local counsel. I found Mr. Pottenger to be an extremely knowledgeable, professional, and an ethical attorney. I never had to worry about the local rules or customs of practice as Mr. Pottenger was very knowledgeable on both and greatly assisted in bringing this complex case to a successful conclusion. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the area needing an attorney, or anyone in the country needed local or co-counsel in the Kansas City area."
