Hi everyone I just want to say that having Jay trucks was the greatest thing I ever did once you are rear-ended in an accident and you're so distraught and hurting and you're not sure on what to do next I sat at my table with my husband and we said we should find a lawyer when we did so the first name that came to mind was Jay truck and associates PC I've always seen them on TV ads everywhere so I said let's give it a try. So we called Jay trucks and associates and we talked to a lawyer name Josh McFarland and I have to say he was nice polite caring and everything that you would expect from a lawyer I always wondered are they going to be rude to me what do they want it from me what do they expect from me and all he was is caring their secretary Shelly also just as nice and friendly they treated you like a friend or a family member not like someone just off the street. They helped me through everything and they were always there to talk to if I needed it specially Shelly I didn't expec

Thank you, Josh, for your continued diligence, patience in listening to my case, perseverance in making this happen, and last, but not least, your detailed knowledge of the law statutes and more were remarkable. Thank you for your dedication to me. Shelley at the office was always on top of things professional and kind and I very much appreciated it throughout this process. I wish all of you well and I hope I never need you again lol.

I would have to say Josh did an excellent job. Above and beyond what he needed to do especially when the check got lost or whatever and didn't get here when it was supposed to and his staff stepped up also on a Saturday to see if it could be found. I know it was frustrating for him and I with all the delays from the medical records and stuff. My surgeon that did my shoulder found out what he needed about any prior medical treatment for the shoulder before the accident. So it was just us great effort by everybody to work together and do a super job. He is an asset to your law firm in all ways.

Josh McFarland did a very good job during my jury trial with explanations and questioning of myself and witnesses. He was very to the point of how laws work and how folks need to follow the laws and too be aware of surroundings at all times.

The people at Jay Trucks did a fantastic job the only thing that I had an issue with is my case was 1/2 over when they took it on but still charged the full price to represent me.. so if your thinking saving money doing it your self DONT just get the attorney right from the start..
