Jamaul Dmitri Cannon

What every reviewer is saying about Jamaul Cannon is true: he is brilliant, professional, and courteous. I urge you to do yourself a favor and take this rare opportunity and hire Mr. Cannon. He is both a towering legal intellect as well as a considerate professional who will patiently explain his leg...al strategy and expectations. Before I met Jamaul, I had the misfortune of hiring another attorney to represent me in my recent divorce. My case involved a short-term marriage with no children nor assets in common. Nevertheless, my ex-wife, who is both well-educated and has extensive work experience, demanded a ridiculous amount of spousal support (approximately 50% of my salary). Not only was that other attorney as courteous as a DMV employee (he rarely returned my emails or phone calls), his legal strategy to defend my interests can best be summarized as "just lay on your stomach." Once I realized that my case was headed towards financial disaster, I decided to seek competent legal representation and I was lucky enough to find Jamaul. From the moment I met Jamaul, I realized that I was in the presence of a man who is in full command of the law. It took him but a few seconds to dismiss my previous attorney's 'surrender strategy' and he explained, in simple terms, why my ex-wife was not entitled to any spousal support. Against Jamaul's wishes, I eventually decided to settle with my ex-wife for a fraction of the support that she originally demanded. There is no question that Jamaul's formidable efforts were critical in saving me from a financial catastrophe. Although my case concluded months ago, I had postponed the writing of my comments because I refused to write a perfunctory, two-minute, review for a man who defended me with the tenacity and determination of a friend. Professionals like Mr. Cannon deserve to be recognized and it is with great pleasure that I wholeheartedly recommend him as your attorney.

Jamaul might be the most honest lawyer in the world. When we first met, he told me exactly what to expect through the entire divorce process. He told me I had to be realistic about things such as custody (I thought I could get sole custody), child support, and alimony (I didn't think my ex deserved... any). Without being condescending Jamaul literally showed me the direct statutes in California that listed factors that courts use to determine these kinds of issues and I was informed why the court would probably rule against me on certain things I wanted. But Jamaul explained in such a common sense and helpful tone, I completely understood where he was coming from. When we got to court, however, Jamaul completely argued for all kinds of exceptions to the law and the judge actually accepted some of these and I managed to avoid paying spousal support. In all, even though he managed my expectations, Jamaul went to bat for me in the most aggressive manner imaginable. I cannot recommend him highly enough, he's a flat out exceptional attorney.

This guy just might be one of the smartest attorneys I've ever met (and that's saying something because I've been divorced four times). By far, my experience with Jamaul and his staff was top notch. He has very flexible billing arrangements, he was respectful yet aggressive in court, he is an unbel...ievable legal writer. When all was said and done, even though divorce (unfortunately) is all too familiar for me, I cannot recommend Jamaul more highly. He will absolutely be my next call when it comes time for my fifth divorce!!

I was extremely wary of hiring Jamaul Cannon to handle my third divorce initially. It was nothing personal, I simply had two previously bad experiences with other divorce attorneys (one of whom was a referral). At a certain point, I began to think maybe the issue (was me). Divorcing three times te...nds to make one feel like everything is his fault. At any rate, Jamaul picked me up and couldn't have been a better joy to work with. In the past, I had attorneys who claimed it was in my best interest to fight for "every little nickel." Jamaul took a different approach: he simply asked me what was most important to me, then gave me a range of how much it would cost to fight for each item. Then WITHOUT PRESSURE, he let me decide what was and was not a deal breaker for me and he litigated my case accordingly. Imagine that, an attorney who actually values what his client is seeking. At any rate, not only did I have a top notch experience with Cannon Legal Group, I have already referred them two other cases.

Mr. Cannon and the staff at CLG have been excellent. They are very responsive and they are always keeping me up to date on my case. I have been working with Mr. Cannon for over 2 years now and I am quite happy. He helped reduce my child support payment and I get to spend more time with my son. Whe...n I met Mr. Cannon he told me that in family law there is no winning or losing, well that's not how I feel. I certainly know that I have won! Thank you CLG.
