Hired Attorney

When it became obvious that I needed a lawyer, a number of people referred me to Jared. Despite my emotional state in our initial consultation, Jared sat with me for hours reviewing the documents and asking very detailed questions. I was so grateful when he agreed to represent me and I am confident that I would not have been able to reach the result we did without him. Jared represented me with the utmost respect and care. He is extremely knowledgeable and qualified in a way array of areas.

Hired Attorney

Jared Gardner listened to my position regarding my legal issue related to the action of the buyers of my business. Unfortunately, he did not hear a word of what I was saying. Keeping me up to date (for which I gave him the benefit of the doubt) was clearly not a priority. When he finally gave me the opposing Attorney's point which centered around typical business practices, you would swear he never spoke to me. What he presented as their position, was exactly my point which I had communicated to him about. That the dispute was we had acted in the historical, usual, typical method of business for 30 years. He presented this as though I had communicated to him that we intentionally defrauded our opponents, and was making "my" contentions from the opposing Attorney as though he agreed with them! He came recommended by the Buy/Sell attorney, but besides not listening to my contentions, he also misinterpreted one of my emails and responded with a written lecture, based not on my question
