Jay A. Ferguson

NEEDS TO Be ZERO STARS rating! WAY BELOW POOR RATING!---read this whole review! Like review stated from 2017--a rat and do not hire. Just moving back into Omaha area2017 - I also google searched not knowing area anymore. Oh Jay Ferguson will take your money (BEWARE--don't give cash as he does NOT gi...ve receipts!) Needed an attorney right away due to finding Mom w/ dementia and siblings stealing her money n assets. Jay Ferguson a snidely whiplash person n attorney. He lied about top amount case could cost. Jays bookkeeping sucks-He apologized for not sending out bills in 3 mnths then 6 mnths and later bill was quadrupled and he won't send any detail on bills?! He talks to keep hourly going when a person is stressed out finding lies about siblings etc. He dropped me b4 case was done after complaint he left town and refused to file a paper on time. Law says has give copies of ALL file and can't leave you without an attorney -he did!--and he only copied a few pages several times I still am waiting 3 years later for papers to go forward in case! He also kept Moms medical records (too many to copy so I loaned him my paid for copies!) Still waiting for complete file and now have to go forward pro se--NOT IN NE--Court doesn't care or recognize you! If last attorney in world I would never use. He uses very creative talk, billing, etc and won't communicate. Lies every time his mouth is opened. I don't know where to look for questions or answers to file correctly which NE obviously doesn't are for pro se people and do not want u to file.

I found this attorney based on a Google search. Not a good idea. Never again. I can smell a rat a mile away. I consulted with, but did not hire him based on his non-answers to some simple questions over the phone. I really give him zero stars. The review guidelines here state that I am not to be too ...specific so I won't go into any more detail other than to say that based on a nine-minute phone consultation this is the last attorney on the planet I'd hire. His resume seems to indicate he mostly handles small cases, entry-level, remedial legal stuff and I have a fairly big money, fairly high stakes case that cries out for someone who knows what they're doing.
