Did not Disappoint

Jason was recommended to me by a friend. When we sat down and I talked to him about my case, it was refreshing to speak with someone who just knew how to explain things in a way that you understand. I had zero clue what my options were. He did not make me feel that he is in it for the money or that I... was wasting his time He was patient and helped me understand my options. I know that attorneys take on many cases. Mine was a case of just being stupid, to be honest, but he took it serious like any other case and never made me feel like my case didn’t matter. Thanks Jason. I’m glad to have things back on track and getting a favorable result for all. Win. Win.

If I ever need a lawyer again, I will most definitely use Jason Kotlyarov!

I utilized Jason Kotlyarov recently for a traffic ticket, and recommend him to anyone! Jason is extremely helpful, efficient, and fair. He explained my case to me clearly, and helped me with minimal effort on my part. This was a great experience for me because it’s often hard for me to leave work, et...c., and Jason took care of everything for me. I never had to follow up with him because he was always on top of reaching out to me first. If you find yourself in a circumstance that you need a lawyer, I definitely recommend Jason.

Medical Debt Dismissal

I went to a dentist last year to get some work done. The dental practice told me that everything was covered by my insurance and that I would only have to pay a few hundred dollars at the location after service was completed. I confirmed this multiple times with the practice prior to the work that wa...s to be done so there were no surprises. About 6 months later I was sent a bill from the practice for about $1,300. It turns out they were not in my network even thigh I asked multiple times. I tried to work with the practice, explaining what I was told and they told me they would give me a courtesy discount and only charge me $900 even though i had already paid a few hundred during my last visit. Long story short, I asked Jason for help because I felt like I was being taken advantage of. Jason asked us to send him all of the documentation I had regarding the procedure and document my experience. He drew up a very well written letter to their lawyer explaining the situation with documentation and shortly after they dropped all of the charges and included they would not send me to collections our affect my credit score. Jason was very prompt and thorough and I would recommend him to anyone.

The attorney I needed in my time of need.

Jason was wonderful at getting all evidence needed to protect me from my old roommate. Jason was knowledgeable on the law and helped me make the best decision for my situation. I would recommend Jason to anyone that needs an attorney.

Blocked KC MO from trying to screw me

I was involved in an accident due to ice created by Kansas City's failure to maintain their water system (a water main broke and leaked water on to the roadway creating a pool of ice and slush around a curve). To add insult to injury, KC gifted me with 2 tickets for not driving for conditions that we...re both unforeseeable and their fault. Anyway, the point is that he took care of both tickets and got one dismissed and one amended to a non-moving violation. KC still got their money out of me, but my driving record is intact and I did not have to show to court. I was also able to pay him online which is a major plus for me. I would not hesitate to use Mr. Kotlyarov again for future legal needs.
