Posted by lynn | August 18, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

court case

We hired Surratt law firm in a custody battle. It went on for ten month's at a great expense for both parties. The family trying to adopt my nephew's baby girl illegally and no matter how many Judge's told them that her dad had legal custody they would not give here up till they were on the verge ...of going to jail and paying a large fine. Jason joined the case about half way thru and even though we had some reservation about switching Lawyers half way thru, Surratt Lawyers convinced us he was the best choice. We could not have found a better lawyer anywhere. Everyone at Surratt and Jason were dedicated and committed to our cause. We could not have had better support or advice of council. I feel they were worth every penny and would not hesitate doing the whole thing again with the same people, I consider them as part of my family and can not thank them enough

Thankful everyday to be working with him!

Jason and I first met when he was the chair of the Nevada State Assembly Judiciary Committee and I was lobbying and testifying in front of him on Family Law Matters. Jason was the key sponsor for Nevada's progressive and leading Assisted Reproductive Technology law and now he works with Surratt Law ...Practice in representing client's in surrogacy and estate planning. We are lucky to have him!

Family lawyer | Sep 02

Relationship: Co-worker

"Jason is an amazing professional and I am glad to be associated with him. He can handle a complicated set of facts and present them before the court systematically. Indeed, his strength is his demeanor and style - it is disarming and friendly. That translates to making your case somehow get through to the judge!"

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
