Jamaul Dmitri Cannon

Jamaul was amazing. He was always professional, always courteous and he always listened. He recommended one course of action in my divorce and I was adamantly opposed to it (it involved trying to settle certain issues with my ex). However, even though he didn't agree with me, he fought extremely h...ard for me and I could tell he was being genuine. In the end, I should have deferred to his expertise, but I appreciated that he never bullied me and that I never got one single "I told you so." All in all, as rough as my divorce was, I couldn't recommend Mr Cannon highly enough

Jamaul was intelligent, thorough, and always well-prepared. He never over-promised anything (like most of the lawyers I talked to at first), and he made sure he always kept me well informed of everything throughout my divorce. It wasn't easy splitting from my husband of 20 years, and I can't imagin...e ENJOYING a divorce no matter who my attorney was; but I did enjoy interacting with and having the Cannon Legal Group work for me.

When I first met Mr. Cannon, he told me that he could be a "chameleon". In other words, if I wanted a really aggressive attorney, he could be a "pit bull", but if I wanted a nice guy" to work to settle everything he could be that as well. Ultimately though, I got to choose what type of attorney. He... worked diligently to show me each and every aspect of this in his practice. In the end, I got a fair settlement, and he helped me avoid the costly expense of a trial.

Mr. Cannon took 9 months to file preliminary discovery paperwork, after requesting and receiving the same information from me five times. His inattention to my case resulted in me being fined $3600 in court sanctions. Mr. Cannon did not inform me until the motion was calendered, then lied that it ...was no big deal and his office would take care of paying the sanctions. In addition, he asked for more money to appear on this motion to compel. I ended up firing him two days after he emailed me the motion to compel. Once he received notice of substitution of counsel. He refused to pay the sanctions and refused to refund the credit i had of $2000. He then took a week to get my file to new counsel after many rude email exchanges.

First of, full disclosure. I've never hired another attorney besides Jamaul (and considering I used him for my divorce, I hope I never have to hire another one). But all I know is I have a couple of friends and family who have been through divorces and my experience has been night and day compared ...to theirs. Jamaul is caring, responsive and most importantly KNOWLEDGEABLE. A lot of people say there's no such thing as a stupid question...Jamaul actually means it. I know I probably asked him many of the same things (often over and over) that he's probably answered a million times, but you'd never know it. All in all, Jamaul is a lot like my dentist, I may have hating going, but I knew it was necessary and he kept things as painless as possible. I couldn't recommend him highly enough
