Never Hire this firm

I contact this firm based on copious reviews online for a relatively simple family law matter. The firm assigned a brand new attorney who was completely overwhelmed and not prepared to handle a case on her own. She then quit one week prior to the hearing. Chris Jackman didn’t step up / step in or ass...ign another attorney. He made promises to assist after the fact but never did. They owe me approximately $12,000.00 for malpractice.

Efficient, Friendly, & Cares

Chris helped me out a lot by taking on a case to help me get a settlement from a personal injury lawsuit. He was great at keeping in touch, and letting me know what was going on throughout the case. He was very thorough in his work, informative, knowledgeable and able to answer any of my questions, a...s well as addressing my concerns throughout the process. I highly recommend Mr. Jackman.

Excellence at it's finest!

Chris Jackman worked for 2 years on a dental malpractice case for our daughter. He was extremely involved and dedicated to helping us settle our case fairly. We were extremely happy with his knowledge, patience, and professional attitude through the entire process. We highly recommend Chris to anyone... looking for a go getter.
