Jason Russell Nelson

I hired Mr Nelson for Divorce and CIR proceedings. In the 13 days of me hiring him he dropped the ball on civil stand by which in turn I fired him. Which is very important to me. He also tried to blame me for his confusion. I sent him literally an email every day with no real responses. If your serio...us about your case this isn't the right guy. He definitely talks the talk but does not walk the walk

In my divorce case I was very impressed with Mr. Nelson. I several emails I complimented Mr. Nelson and his secretary, Cheryl. on their support and professionalism during a difficult time. That was in 12/17/17. In the final divorce decree the judge awarded me a Qualified Domestic Relation Order (QDRO...), for the sum of $41,000, which was to be transferred from my ex-wife's 401k into mine. I was ecstatic, but to this date the QDRO has not been filed, which I have paid for. I finally had to file a complaint with Washington State Bar Association on 4/5/2023.

I hired Jason for my divorce he wasted months of my time. He ignored repeated emails and messages for 4 months, as did his secretary, that cost me thousands in extra child support payments. Now that my divorce is final I've spent almost 2 months trying to get a final statement (which I haven't receiv...ed a single one since I hired him) and the remaining balance of my retainer. I plan on filing a complaint with the bar next. If you want a lawyer with integrity and and dependability, do not hire Jason Nelson

I hired Jason 4 months into divorce. At first he was very up front and explained things to me thoroughly about what to expect based on my case. Was good at communicating and returning phone calls and emails. Then about 7 months in when I started contacting him and telling him what kinds of terms I wa...s trying to get my wife to settle on, he didn't return calls and emails in a timely manner. When I told him "I dislike attorneys, nothing personal and to do his job", he was real butt hurt. So what did he do, withdrew the day before my pretrial 8 months into the divorce and only a week before trial. Unprofessional individual who thought he was going to be able to put my case on cruise control and do very little.

I was going through a divorce and used Jason for all of it. He and his secretary were quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had. Jason is extremely knowledgeable about family law and is very upfront with you about what is and is not realistic. He is very reasonably priced and isn't out ...to just get your money. Jason genuinely cared about my case. I have referred several people to him in the last year and they all loved him.
