An absolute winner

After enduring a challenging and complex legal battle for years, and having worked with multiple attorneys to no avail, I finally found success with Jeremiah Raxter. His exceptional legal acumen and unique approach were evident from the start. Unlike others before him, Jeremiah brought innovative str...ategies and insights to the table, which were instrumental in resolving my case. Throughout the entire process, his dedication never wavered. He demonstrated remarkable consistency, always staying vigilant and proactive. His commitment not only led to the resolution of my case but also brought about several additional positive outcomes that exceeded my expectations. Jeremiah’s determination and expertise were truly the game changers in my legal journey. I am immensely grateful for his service and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a skilled and dedicated attorney. The best possible outcome in my case was a direct result of his hard work and perseverance, and for that, I will always be thankful.

Not good

In the process of administering my mothers trust and he refuses to return my calls refuses to answer my emails but charges me for every single email that I sent to him whether he answered me or not and then sabotages the sale of my mothers house by offering legal advice to the escrow company which wa...s actually incorrect advice causing us to lose the sale he cost us money he’s unprofessional he was late or completely absent from every appointment we set up. And after a month and a half of trying to get answers from him I get a message back saying they’re having technical difficulties in the next email I get says that they’re dropping me as a client because I am making it too hard for them to do their job . All I wanted was them to answer my questions and they refused to do that but they gave all kinds of information to anybody else who would ask for it. Not only that but they lied to the beneficiaries about me stating I didn’t turn papers in when I had And stating that I said things that I didn’t and they called me a liar when I prove to them that the attorney told me to do a certain action is paralegal swears that he would never say that once I showed her written proof that he did say it they just claimed it must’ve been a slight miscommunication and that’s all after they called me a liar not a good lawyer

Highly recommended!

We were involved in a very contentious probate case as Legal Guardians. Our grandson is a child with significant special needs. His parents were unwilling to admit their son has disabilities, and insisted to court that we had made them up to try and limit parent visitations. The parents attempted to ...have our Guardianship revoked. Mr. Jeremiah Raxter did six things extraordinarily well for us: kept us on an even keel when we were reeling, gave rock solid legal advice that kept us on firm footing, did the research necessary for us to feel confident in front of the judge, was on top of it strategy-wise, helped us understand rationale for every step. Most importantly, Mr Raxter's strategy in the courtroom led to the parents agreeing to withdraw their petition to have the guardianship revoked. He then helped negotiate a deal for us with the parents' attorney to gradually increase visitations based on parents' participation in our grandson's treatment and in his education. We couldn't be happier!

Do Not Recommend

Needed estate planning done. Met with an attorney and agreed to hire them. Filled out the paperwork and paid the retainer fee, after that we heard silence. Followed up and was told the work was complete, but we needed to come in and review/sign. Made arrangements for child care and work, but they can...celled at the last minute because “the printer wasn’t working”, rescheduled for the following week, made arrangements for everything, showed up on time, was told they’d be right with us, but we waited 35 minutes and nobody said anything. My husband and I decided to walk out because that’s not the way you treat clients.

helped my family with probate and wrongful death

I went to Raxter law to seek help with a probate because son was killed in a car accident. Mr. raxter helped me with the probate and then informed me that I could seek money from the other driver. His office then helped me with the wrongful death and we received more than I ever hoped for. I am in te...ars and very thankful. I would use Mr. raxter and Raxter law again.

"I had the opportunity to oppose Mr. Raxter in a highly contested matter. I find him to be a gracious, accomodating, and professional attorney. At the same time, he had the ability to advocate his client's position and still be willing to find a resolution to the matter that accommodated all parties. It was a pleasure working against him and I look forward to the opportunity to do so again."
