Couldn't be more blessed to have found Jay Granberry

Long story short, Jay went above and beyond expectations when representing me in my case. He was very optimistic towards my case, other lawyers I saw weren't so much. I was actually referred to him by another criminal defense lawyer in town and was told Jay was a very knowledgable and well liked guy ...within the judicial system. From giving me advice, to setting me up with the right people, and battling for me in the court room, Jay showed his abilities to be superior. Now that my case has been resolved, Jay still helps me out by talking to my probation officers and working with me on any questions I may have. I paid Jay to be my lawyer back in 2013 and still to this day he is quick to respond and help me out if I have any questions or concerns about my future. Overall, he is the best I've seen and would have him defend my own child if, God forbid, he ever got in trouble as well.

The best you could ask for

I hired Jay almost 2 years ago after a DWI arrest and it was the best choice I could of made! Not only did he give me confidence about my case, but he made me feel as if my life was not over after getting that ticket. He was with me every step of the way and is great at communicating. Any questions t...hat I had or if I just wanted to check up on things, he was always reachable and never hesitated on helping me in anyway he could. He fought for me and we ended up getting a deal that I was worried wouldn't be possible and for that I could not thank him enough. Not only is he a great lawyer but an even better person who made me feel that this ticket was just a little bump in the road and he helped me move past it!

Excellent Service and Representation

Our family recently hired Jay Granberry to represent us in a legal matter that was unfamiliar and unnerving to us. In our initial meeting, Jay reviewed the case and laid out the various options around jury trial, settlement, plea bargain, etc. We quickly gained knowledge and understanding of the si...tuation and found ourselves feeling better about the ultimate outcome. Throughout the legal process, Jay and his staff kept us apprised of progress, hearings and other matters. When it came time for the hearing, we were prepared and came away feeling good about the outcome. Our family recommends Jay Granberry and truly appreciates his service and commitment.
