Saved my world.

I owned a restaurant with my husband and my small child. When my husband passed away I didn’t have any extra money to have the succession done. Mr. Diamond saw my plight and worked with me to make sure it got finalized at the most reasonable rate I had been offered. He has now handled all my attorney... needs. He is very skilled at his craft and an upstanding human being. Without his help I would have lost my house.

Explains every step of the process clearly

J. Diamond helped me through a separation and divorce. He explained clearly every step of the process, was on time and prepared for filings and with paperwork, and was always available to take my calls when I had questions. The personal attention I received made me more at ease with the unfamiliar ...proceedings of the court system. I was well pleased with the outcome due to his help.

I love my lawyer he is a God send.

I have a very unique case and throughout this process it has been a learning curve for the both of us. But together we have overcame every obstacle. Jay is so very kind and compassionate he truly cares about his clients, it's not just about money. He wants whats best for his clients and he fights for... whats RIGHT!! My case is still ongoing and I have all confidence that Jay will see it through to the end with all that he has and the outcome will be in our favor. Not only because he is a good lawyer but because its whats right!! I know with all my heart My lord and savior Jesus Christ sent this man to me because he sees his heart and how pure and true it is.

Integrity. Compassion. Professional.

Mr. Diamond has helped me with several cases from divorce to my Moms passing. He traveled to meet with her in person and she immediately adored him. I recommend J Diamond as no matter what time of day or even on weekends he returns messages and calls/texts. He will continue to handle all of my per...sonal and business needs. I send his info to all of my friends when they are in search of great legal representation.

Jay Diamond

I Recently hired Mr. Diamond to represent my son. He was quick to respond to my call, reacted to my needs in a decisive and professional manner. Mr. Diamond exhibited a behavior that was reassuring, concise and to the point with appropriate measures to be followed with the court system. His follow up... was exemplary. On a personal note, he would follow up with me to ensure that I was okay or if I needed anything throughout the process which was reassuring and meant a lot to me personally.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
