I have worked with Jeffrey Blackman for over 5 years...

I have worked with Jeffrey Blackman for over 5 years, and during that time he has been nothing less than absolutely professional and passionate about his work. I would be lying if I did not say that during the time we have worked together, due to his impeccable integrity and care for those around him..., we have become more than just colleagues, I can now truly call him a friend. I would and do recommend Jeffrey to any and all in need of a serious, honest, straightforward and knowledgeable attorney. You can always count on Jeffrey to get to the hard truths, and continuously be there to point you in the right direction, even if the right path isn't always the easy path. Thank you Jeffrey!

Helped me a lot

Mr. Blackman has helped me and my family several times for legal advice and assistance. I have recommended Mr. Blackman to several friends, including 2 divorce cases, and they have been very happy with him. I have found that Mr/ Blackman is direct and to the point. Do not lie to him about your c...ase OR not follow his legal advice. If he tells you to do something, or more importantly NOT TO DO SOMETHING, follow his advice !! Come to Mr. Blackman prepared, with the facts, and any documentation involved in your case. Do not BS him. That will hurt your case and lead him down the wrong road until the truth comes out. He can not help you correctly if you are not straight with him. Ask him to clarify Attorney and client privilege so you understand why the truth is important. Mr. Blackman is very thorough and knows what he is doing.

Highly recommmend Mr. Blackman

I have used Mr. Blackman twice in the past for family criminal issues. Mr. Blackman will keep you up to date by phone and mail, work diligently to uncover anything that will help your case, and give you the best result possible. His ability to "work" things out wth the other side is very benificial t...o the case. I recommned Mr. Blackman to anybody who wants an aggrssive honest attorney working on your behalf.

Redemption

I left a poor review of a phone call with this lawyer. He called me back regarding it and I did not listen to the whole message due to low tolerance for confrontation or stress. I am writing this second one to balance out the first. It was only a phone call. The review I left was a little facitious, ... which isn't like me. I know how it is to have your reputation unfairly attacked, so I relent. The point of that review was to inform the attorney Mr. Blackman that my impression of the call was that he really didn't want to hear about the case, and I really did want some thoughts on it. Excuse my imaginative description, but it is the truth that is what I imagined! I'm sure no one wants people to think that way of them. Moral of the story: if the phone is your first contact, and people are in a scary situation, you may want to be a little easier and friendlier. Don't cut people off so much when they are speaking, etc. I have nothing bad to say about Mr. Blackman as an attorney, however.

Old, tired grouch?

I only had a phone consult. But if I had been able to hire him at this time (expensive! ) I more than likely would have chosen not to. He was very short, seemed tired and impatient. I imagined an overweight sweaty old greedy man on the other end. Looking at his profile he actually seems very creative... and interesting. Maybe, Mr. Blackman, do not answer your phone when you are feeling burned out and tired. As I said, based on that phone call I would not have hired you if I had all the money in the world. Good day!
