This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

So confused, whats his motive?

I went and met Mr. Anderson for a free 30 min consultation regarding professional negligence, he had no problem spending quite a bit more time discussing the details 2+ hours he spoke with me. I left feeling appreciative and optimistic, he kept my paperwork to look over the holiday week, just to fami...liarize himself with my case. Awsome rite? Wrong..... after 6 months of numerous emails and voice messages, I finally caught him by phone to make a follow up appt. He offered no explanation for the non-communication, and that appt he set never happend. Now its been another 6 months (over a year now total) Ive called and emailed repeatedly with no response. Last week I called from a private number and he answered ...scheduled a time for me to come meet him to get my documents. The morning before we were scheduled to meet I spoke with him again and he asked to reschedule, saying he was having breakfast with colleague of his who was interested about my case the next morning and wanted to have the paperwork to show him. Well .... I guess after so long of not hearing a word from him I shouldnt have agreed to reschedule, needless to say I didnt hear back from him and he surely hasnt responded to emails or calls. He seemed genuinely interested in my situation I really didnt expect this type of conduct- Im obviously mad...

very unresonsive

The biggest issue for this guy is very unresponsive (never responded to your email, calls) during his representation for this one year. Somewhat careless, and forgetful.

horable

Jason did not give the bankruptcy court our new address and he did not give the court our change of income even when we gave him 21 days notice of our address and income change to our court.

Helped us out of a difficult situation

I've used Mr Anderson on three occasions. The third time I used him, the landlord was trying to evict my nightclub from the building because they wanted to lease the space to a much larger company. At trial Mr Anderson proved the landlord had falsified utility charges so they could pretend we were in... default when we weren't. With his help we forced the landlord to buy our lease instead of being bullied out of the building for nothing. I thought he handled our case very well.

Litigation Advice

I consulted with Mr. Anderson about filing a bankruptcy. He advised me to wait for two years until some taxes I owed could be discharged. I found him easy to talk to and appeared to care about what was best for me.

  • 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.
