This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

I would hire someone else.

He did not make me feel like a priority at all. Took my money and offered me no advice or help. All he did was show up to court for me. I really wish I would have looked into another lawyer. If you are paying someone to fight for you, you would expect to see a little fight. This guy just wants a payc...heck. He does not care to help you out at all.

Legal gun owner with a ccw permit

Jess defended me on multiple gun charges. He was able to plea down my charges to probation and a misdemeanor conviction securing my future gun rights. Jess is an absolute beast and can negotiate with the da, he spends a lot of time in court defending a lot of people!

Just Amazing!

I can’t even begin to explain how wonderful Mr. Marchese and Ms. Knight are! Starting out on my horrible divorce, I had a different lawyer who didn’t listen to a thing I was telling them. From the very beginning the two of them listened and took on my very complicated case. They took me at my word an...d helped me! They were thorough in search to find information and the truth! I swear this duo are a power house combination! The opposition will be scared of the sassy, but extremely brilliant Samira and the Jess, the GK model of their nightmares! I am sure my ex’s attorney is still mad we prevailed against her antics and waste of my ex’s money. In all serious they are truly talented in their field. Through a tough divorce they made me feel like I had a voice, people who were championing for me, their full attention and sound advice I could trust to be in my best interest. I don’t know how I would have gotten through this all without them being my counsel. If you are looking for an attorney look no further, Marchase Law is your answer!!

Great communication, fantastic results!

I contacted Jess on a Saturday, and by Monday he was in court for me on a reckless driving charge. He texted me every step of the way, and got my charges reduced significantly. He was awesome about communication, and I was never left in the dark about what was happening with my case. I live out of st...ate, and with Jess, I didn't have to worry about not being in Vegas. His fee was super reasonable, and payment was really convenient. Overall I was super happy with Jess, and I would definitely use him again (although hopefully I won't have to ;))

Sexual Assault case 12/3/15

Words can't describe what an amazing lawyer Jess is! He's a no bull crap kind of guy. He tells you straight up what to expect, keeps in contact with you all the time so your never wondering what's going on, always has time and makes time for his clients, and dresses to impress!! I was facing 20 years... to life on two counts of sexual assault. Jess battered and beat up the prosecutor and the Las Vegas police detectives. He made them look so incompetent and ignorant about doing their job! I would highly recommend Jess to anyone who needs a lawyer cause he kept me out of prison for 20 years!!!
