There are few times in our life when we need an attorney; but when one does you look for the best and hope that everything you have heard and read is true. Other than God, and my Husband there is Nothing that I hold closer in the world than my Children and Grandchildren. Earlier this year when my son was faced with the decision to get a divorce and protect his children he needed someone that would fight for him but even more someone who understood the needs of his son’s. Once we met with Maureen Horkin, we felt at ease. My son was going through all of the emotions and he needed some strong Legal support and representation. As a Mother and a grandmother, I could only offer love as could the rest of our family, however; Maureen was able to offer compassion to all of us, knowledge on how the legal system works and guide us through those rocky moments and times from beginning to end. I believe Maureen went into this trying to take care of my son and my grandsons. No divorce is ever perfect, but at the end what you want is what is best for the children and what is fair for both adults. While Maureen was compassionate, and always very concerned with the boys well-being she was demanding when it came to their rights She was never difficult with us; however she was hard-hitting and devoted to getting the job done whatever it took with the opposing side. It was apparent that she spent strenuous and taxing hours doing her job. She stood up for the boys through every unpleasant step whether it be filing the paper work or facing disagreeable behavior from the other side through-out the whole unpleasant ordeal, we knew we always had her by our side. The law was on our side but we didn’t know the law we knew and trusted Maureen. Long story short she is a classy, beautiful lady that knows the law, she is as sweet as your family maybe more so in some cases, and when it counts she is a quarterback that all the teams would fight over. Thank You Maureen, some people say when Momma is happy everybody is Happy well in my case when My Son and his Boys are happy I’m Happy. They want to be together and are so happy, I know he puts their happiness first, and words can never ever express my gratitude to you or your office for your professionalism, perseverance, and your ability to handle the conflicts and hostility with such finesse and never-ending skill.

“Bad things happen to good families and people” That is one of the first things Jason said to me and my son. The laws are set to protect us. However, the law can be black and white when there are several shades of grey. If a man has a beer in his own house after coming back from war but is only 20, should his dad be charged for contributing to the delinquency of a minor? Have you ever done something now looking back, it may not have been the best decision but nothing happened? That was not the case a few years ago to my family. A bad decision, one I am sure many of us have done in our younger days. A bad decision was made and it could have ruined a young man’s future. The courts are busy and things can fall through the cracks; I was making sure my son was not one of them. I knew Jason had worked for the District attorney’s office so he knew both sides of the law. He knew what the other side was going to do and say because he was there for many years. He prepared our family through each and every step. He made sure that we were proactive “getting ducks in a row” so to speak. If there was something mentioned, we had already taken care of it and showed no history and really no where for the other side to go. What could have been jail time ended up being a bump in the road. No one can promise anything is a sure thing. Jason did not make any promises he was not prepared to keep. He told us what normally happens, and what he was going to try for and he did. I rather have someone say there is a 70/30 chance than, “sure this is no problem, don’t worry about it”. We do worry about it. It is our lives or one of someone we love. Some cases may not be life or death, but they all are between a life that could be and a life that never will be. Jason understands that and approached it as if was his brother standing next to him. Every now and then, I will look at my son when eating dinner or something and think, if it was not for Jason and his group, I would have to visit my son to see him. I thanked God for Jason being there then, and have every day since.

There are times when you may need unforeseen legal assistance and your scared and don't have a clue if youre making the right choice. The decision is not an easy one when it's based on your family and life. You worry if they have your best interest at heart, if they know enough, if they know the right people and it's very emotional & confusing. Ten years ago my family was faced with the worst nightmare any mother could ever imagine & I prayed to God to make the right decision and I did. Meeting Jason Porter & his assistant Darlene C. (she's been with him longer than that), was the best in my life in my family's life. Jason doesn't have a big office turn around, in fact I have watched his office grow to the success it is today. His staff stays because they know they are with a terrific guy & great attorney. I can go on and on and mean every word from the bottom of my heart but the are truly no words to describe the great outcomes he has had for 2 of my sons on separate occasions. Unfortunately, we don't live in a society anymore where "boys will be boys". There are way too many laws and not enough of societal morality (due to a change of the times). Boys may get in trouble, they did get in trouble but with their unfortunate choices, my choice was the better in retaining Jason and his law firm. He is our family attorney forever.

This is the first time in my life I have ever had the need for an attorney in my life when I got pulled over for DUI in March. I meet with Gary Shumard and he told me from the beginning I was facing an uphill battle because I did what they call a double refusal. He was calm confident that he could get me a good result and gave me his personal cell phone because of my inexperience with the criminal justice system so I could contact him with questions and concerns. Which I definitely did text and call him from time to time and always received a prompt and accurate response. The case lasted approx. 8 months in that time there were no surprises I was well aware of all scheduled court dates and there were no extra fees of any kind just the money I paid day one. Gary worked with Mr. Porter when it came to securing me a reduction in charges from DUI to reckless driving and getting me an extremely favorable deal with the state to do so. I have talked with other people I have meet in doing community service and friends that have received DUI and it seems I got “lucky” in my deal but I assure you there was no luck about it just extremely good attorneys fighting for me. There is no question in my mind that I will always use this law firm if I ever get in trouble again and will refer family and friends here if they are every in need of a attorney.

There is nothing like the fear and uncertainty the legal system brings to keep you up at night, especially when it involves your child. For this reason selecting an attorney was one of the most daunting and important decisions I made; after much research that’s why I chose Jason Porter. Throughout the legal process Jason answered all my emails and phone calls, he figuratively provided the hand holding my son and mostly I needed to be reassured the outcome would be in our favor. Needless to say the outcome was in our favor and I could not have been more pleased with Jason’s service. I was so pleased with Jason’s professionalism and legal savvy that I asked if he practices law outside of criminal defense, so I could use his services for all my legal needs. He will always receive my business in the future.

My experience with Jason Porter and his office was all around exceptional from beginning to end. He treated me as if we had been friends for years which made me feel completely comfortable and relieved my anxiety. He spent enormous amounts of time explaining to me my situation, the law, what to expect and realistic expectations of the possible outcomes. He also spent time getting to know me and who I am. His office was warm and friendly and were always helpful and accomodating with anything I needed. Not only was my experience with Jason Porter and his office extraordinary, he was also able to provide me the best outcome for my case. Jason Porter is an exceptional lawyer and a wonderful friend. I cannot thank him enough for all that he has done for me.

Mr. Porter is the best! Never did I imagine that I would need an attorney so I was at a loss when I needed to find one quickly. Luckily, a family member and a family friend recommended Mr. Porter. He made the entire process as easy as could be. I felt so at ease knowing he was handling everything. He answered all of my questions, no matter how simple or obvious the answer was, and kept us up to date on everything. I know my situation was probably small compared to others he may deal with, but I never felt that way. He was knowledgeable, polite, responsive, and understanding. I will always go to and recommend Mr. Porter.

Jason and Gary not only treated me with the utmost respect and consideration, they also won the best possible deal for me (I cried in happiness a little bit). I will not hesitate to use their services again, if needed. And my case was especially difficult for them because I switched to using their services after having another attorney in the beginning, and I was constantly out of town for family reasons. I love these guys, and all the office staff that make them so amazing!

I waited 5 weeks to hear back from this man who promised me everything would be taken care of. But in the end he is just as scared of going after the city and JSO as everyone else. I placed so much faith into this attorney, however when it came down to business he left me handing when I needed him the most. With that said, if you want absolutely NOTHING accomplished, call Porter!

I have had to retain Jason for a family member twice in the last 8 months for a family member. He has been professional, understanding and made us comfortable with the direction of the case. He has always made time in his busy schedule to take phone calls and answer emails. He made my family feel like he really wanted to help which was proven in the results.

The team at Jason Porter Law is amazing. They will go the extra mile, treat you with respect and handle your case with a high level of integrity. I have never had such a complete experience when working with an attorney as I did while working with JP Law. Thanks for all your time and effort!!
