Very Happy with Jan Fry as my attorney!

Helped me on a civil matter. She had very reasonable fees and I got fantastic results. She was also available for my and concerns. I would tell anyone I know who needs an attorney to use her.

Jan Fry a trustworthy and hard working lawyer. Case DISMISSED!

In July 2011, I was on my way to my hometown to visit family when we were pulled over by police. They claimed it was due to a “defective tail light”. Once pulled over they searched the car and found 4 pounds of marijuana. I went to jail and was bonded out. I found a lawyer whom took my case but he wa...s horrible. He would never return my calls, give me updates, try to find evidence if we were rightfully pulled over and he just gave me the run around. He was basically all talk and was trying to sell me a million dollar dream he knew he couldn’t fulfill. He was close friends with the prosecutor and he told me that the best deal they could give me was deferred adjudication or 2 years state jail. He was pressuring me in to taking deferred adjudication and was trying to convince me that if I went on trial they would not offer me that option and just give me jail time. My future is VERY important, regardless of my mistake, so I fired him and hired Jan Fry. Immediately she showed how dedicated she was to her career. She investigated and requested all the evidence. She never promised me anything she knew she couldn’t deliver. She kept very open communication with me and showed how much she sincerely cared. She found that the tail light the police claimed to be defective was just an extra cosmetic on the vehicle and that the main tail lights worked properly. After all her hard work my case was DISMISSED! Jan Fry literally saved my future and I am so grateful that I hired her to represent me. I would recommend her to EVERYONE. She is someone you can really trust and I can never thank her enough.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 1996.

Fully Probated Suspension issued in TX, 1996

updated on 09/21/2021

Fully probated suspension means an attorney is technically suspended but may still practice law. The State monitors the lawyer's activities during the suspension to make sure that he or she does not repeat the behavior.

Jan’s comment:

“This was NOT a complaint from a client.”
