The great and powerful Jed Silverman

Jed was very patient and attentive, he explained everything pertaining to my situation in terms I could understand. Sugar coating is not part of his approach which I found very professional. He was able to answer any questions I had for him and his office was very responsive and great at getting bac...k with me in a timely manner. In a court system such as Harris county, where your case can be stuck in limbo for months on end he made all of his cases a priority to get his client the best result and out of the courthouse as soon as possible. Overall Jed treated me with respect and made it a point to understand the situation I was in. Without his understanding I believe my case wouldn't have been dropped. He helped me get my life back together and avoid a criminal charge that would have followed me the rest of my life. I highly recommend Jed if you ever find yourself in a legal situation.

Skilled and Professional Colleague

Jed came on to assist me in co counseling on a serious alcohol related criminal case I was handling. It was imperative that the State's expert witness be disqualified. After thirty minutes of Jed's cross examination, the " law and order" judge ruled that the D.A.'s expert witness was NOT qualified ...to testify. I cannot recommend Jed enough and I would unhesitatingly hire him if I, God forbid, were to be charged with a serious crime.

Second Chance

I have nothing but respect and appreciation for the experience and knowledge that Jed Silverman brought to the table when it came to my case. After interviewing countless lawyers, hiring one and then having him quit after 7 months, Jed Silverman was recommended by a Judge friend. Within the first f...ew minutes of the initial consultation, he told me how he would proceed with my case and why, AND he was the only lawyer that expressed any kind of positivity about the outcome. He believed in my case and was able to get the charge reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor which the judge said afterwards, “wasn’t rare but doesn’t happen that often.” Later that evening, Jed sent a text with his “congrats”. He truly does care about his clients and that makes a world of difference. He is the only lawyer I will recommend from now on. Thank you, Jed!

Trust him with my life and the life of my family

Mr. Silverman defended me in a jury trial where I was charged with DUI 2nd, and illegal possession of a firearm. A conviction or plea bargain was not an option in my line of work. Jed and his staff worked tirelessly to prepare my defense and research my case. In the courtroom room Jed attacked the... prosecution’s case with the ferocity of rabid dog. Jed was so intense and knowledgeable that the prosecutor asked to discontinue the trial and dismissed all charges. My case was dismissed before ever going to the jury’s decision and I was able to move on with my life. I am very grateful for Jed Silverman, his entire staff, and will recommend him to anyone needing an attorney in the future.

The proof is in the result!

When I first retained Jed Silverman my situation was inexplicably bleak. I was facing 9 years TDC for a probation violation. I was absolutely hopeless and had no way to overcome this situation as I had made many bad decisions during my probation. I was on 5 years deferred adjudication and violated... pretty much every condition of the probation. Jed saved my life literally. Not only was I reinstated on my probation but now I have the opportunity to be off 3 years earlier than expected. His expert legal counsel along with Gene Tausk proved not only effective but truly astonishing. They took a situation that should not have ended in anything but a conviction and triumphed over it completely. Thank you both so much you two saved my life and my family as well as myself appreciate all your hard work. You handled yourself wonderfully in the court room as well. Once again thank you all!!
