Posted by Dora | February 12, 2019 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Amazing Lawyer

I had an opened case for over 25 years in Los Angeles, CA. that was preventing me into getting my U.S citizenship. Jason was capable of finding my case while I was located in Florida. His effort into this was incredible, he made my situation less complicated than it was going to be. Jason is an out...standing lawyer and I recommend anyone to hire him.

Excellent Attorney

Mr. Jason Coker represented my case for an outstanding bench warrant that was very concerning to me. There was a real possibility I could have been remanded into custody and have to post bail. Jason was very conscientious and gave me careful instruction on how to proceed with the matter. He then wen...t before the judge on my behalf and deftly dealt with the case, and got me the result I wanted. I was not taken into custody and only had to pay the fine I owed the court. I strongly recommend Jason to anyone who needs the services of a criminal lawyer.

Worth Every Penny

I got my first DUI, and had no clue what to do. Not only was Jason Coker completely capable of handling my situation, but he also made me feel comfortable and more secure about my situation. I was charged with my first DUI with a .1 reading on the breathalyzer at the scene. My situation looked bad, b...ut through it all Jason got my case down to a wet reckless and even struck a deal where I didn't get a breathalyzer put in my car. He is a highly qualified lawyer and a great guy. I'd recommend him to anybody.

Great Service

I came for help in regards to a DUI I got in Nov. Having a wet reckless already decided to get an attorney this time around because I figured things would be a little tough the second time around22. Called a few other offices but when I met with Jason he made me feel at ease and he really made me fee...l li2ke he wanted to help. After leaving his office I knew that I wanted Jason to take care of my case. Jason was beyond helpful and his communication with me throughout the whole thing was great. He would reply or call back right away and anything I had questions about he would help me with. If anyone is ever in a mind I would for sure send them over to Jason!!! Hes the Best!! Got my DUI counted as a first, with no jaill time so I am very pleased with the outcome.
