The best attorney in the state !!!!!!

The words I have for this law firm would not do them justice . They are the best lawyers in the state if not the country . They are kind, caring and compassionate about ALL that they do and everything they do has a purpose. Going through one of the most trying times in my life they brought me through... it and cleared my name of unfathomable charges . I can genuinely say I owe my life to Neal Davis and Jed Silverman . If you are ever going through something you need an attorney for hire these men . They are phenomenal attorneys !!!!!!!!!!!

Great Attorney

I am very grateful for Jed Silverman’s work on my case. He was there from the beginning and guided me and my family through the entire process. His staff was always courteous and helpful in keeping me informed and up to date. I would definitely recommend him and his team.

Dismissal

Every day, I find myself reflecting on and appreciating Mr. Silverman's exceptional representation. The experience was truly incredible, and the result was a complete dismissal of the case.

Jed Silverman is the best attorney in Houston

Jed Silverman is the best lawyer in Houston, period. I was in a situation where I had to stand my ground for my innocence, and with Jed I had the best advocate and friend who was both motivated and completely and wholly prepared to fight for me. He is the BEST...there is no one else I would have ad...vocating for me in any legal situation like mine than Jed Silverman. The best, most prepared, connected and genuine advocate for your legal interest in Houston.

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.
