Jay saved me

Thank you Jay Monico... helped save my life/ass as I know it! Also fought so so hard for my children dealing with my vindictive ex wife setting me up with trouble to try and take custody from my kids. I’m a combat veteran, I’ve seen and done a lot of crazy stuff and this was the scariest time in my ...life, all amid the COVID crap. So fricking scary. Anyways my ex wife plotted Something to get me in trouble, she did... I have PTSD... half from the marriage half from Iraq she screamed in a voice recording without my knowledge at my place when she was picking up my kids from my place an hour away and gave it to the cops and got me arrested. with a felony domestic violence charge. Jay got it tossed out fast, and the. Went on to fight everything else that was happing like a warrior. This guy is super smart and is there for you. He can assemble a plan of attack so fast and go with it. He cares, he’s a father and a good man. I have a new respect for lawyers because of him. I owe him so much I cannot even say. Just, thank you Jay... Iowr you big time. You can’t go wrong here. For peace of kind, 7’s legal is a golden egg of a practice. Feel lucky if you get them you are in the best hands.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
