I hired Mr Jordan when my son (Active Duty Army) was charged with Abusive Sexual Contact. I reached out to Mr Jordan late in the evening on a weekend by sending a message on his website. Mr Jordan called me back immediately. After speaking with Mr Jordan, I knew he was the right attorney for the job!...
