Posted by Michael | May 27, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Personal Injury

Will fight Insurance companies tooth and nails for his clients.

Jason Smith is a very knowledgeable Attorney. I hired him in 2012 when no other attorney would take my case. The other insurance company denied my Personal injury claim from the start even though their insured was issued a citation for illegal left turn. Jason Smith filed lawsuit and other insurance... company requested mediation before trial and ended up with a settlement in my favor. I highly recommend Jason Smith for Personal injuries cases.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
