Jean Barr Jorgensen

Jean Barr Jorgensen has represented our family on a few legal matters where we have hired her services and provided council on numerous other matters. She is always thorough in gathering her facts by asking pertinent questions and requesting necessary documents. Her explanations of our options are ...always clear, concise and covers any areas that may present. Ms Jorgensen is organized and communicative. Both my husband will continue to seek her services in the future and I have recommended her to many other people we know.

Gets the information,proccesses the facts,communicates clearly,relentlessly researches facts and is straight up with clients

After our car accident, we called Jean Jorgensen because of the 4 cars involved in the accident, the other 3 cars were all insured by the same insurance company and we felt like we were getting shuffled to the back of the claims line and were told that the maximum of the policy would be reached with... their owned insured. Once we called Jean Jorgensen we received immediate instructions towing and storage of our car, medical recommendations and no more dealing with the other insurance company. It was a relief not having to do that and Dr. payments at the same time. Although we have not settled the claim yet, we are confident that Jean will do the best for us possible.

Jean Jorgensen - Simply An Outstanding Attorney

Jean Jorgensen represented me against a nationally recognized insurance company located in the Pacific Northwest. This company has a highly-paid legal team, and Ms. Jorgensen schooled them all by utilizing a recently enacted consumer protection statute they were unaware existed. The insurance compan...y came out initially with guns blazing, but then settled almost immediately, and have changed their business practices as a result of Jean's work. Jean Jorgensen has a razor-sharp, yet extremely intuitive legal mind, and is also one of the most personable and ethical people I have ever met. I would not hesitate to recommend Ms. Jorgensen to anybody seeking legal advice, and I have done so on many occasions. Contact Jean if you need world-class legal representation - she's the real deal.

WINNER!!

MRS JORGENSEN REPRESENTED ME IN A LARGE SETTLEMENT CASE AGAINST A WORLDWIDE MAJOR CORPORATION, I WAS VERY INTIMIDATED BUT SHE NEVER WAS. I WAS AWARDED A SATISFACTORY MONETARY SETTLEMENT. SHE IS A WINNER AND A PROFESSIONAL AT HER PROFESSION. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER SERVICES TO ANYONE!!

I do not recommend Jean Barr Jorgensen

I originally contacted Jean about a commission issue with an employer. I had a phone conversation explaining the scenario and she asked I come in for a meeting. Nothing would be charged. I met with Jean and she stated the legal options one of which being we could most likely go after loss of wages. ...Another lawyer had told me there wasn't an option for lost wages so I thought Jean was willing to go the extra mile. I signed a contract with Jean based on that thought process. An hour after I signed up with her she emailed me stating that unfortunately going for lost wages wasn't an option. I was very surprised about being misled. through the course of the next 7 days I had emailed her backup info regarding the case and spoke with her once or twice. She sent me a list of hours spent totaling 7 or 8 hours that included our first phone consultation and the only time we met that was supposed to be no cost. I thought that was leading down a dishonest road so I decided to part ways with Jean. She had sent an email stating that the tally of hours wasn't a bill and wouldn't be. I still decided to part ways with her services. A couple weeks later I received a bill for almost 800.00 that included the items previously mentioned. I ended up negotiating it down to three hundred dollars. This lawyer is a liar and a cheat. She will mislead you into signing the contract then there is nothing you can do within reason to get out of the deal besides pay her. She never even contacted my employer it was purely discussions on the case and she absolutely forced me to pay her or we were going to court! Please, please don't use her. I moved on to another lawyer that operated very above board and honestly so I experienced both sides of the spectrum.
