Client Reviews
Jed has been a great guy to work with, I sought out an attorney for my case in Loudon County, TN and Jed took my case. It was a simple possession charge, which classified as a Class A Misdemeanor. Jed worked with the district attorney and I to get it cleared from my records, only needing a short drug/alcohol school certificate. He’s been a great guy to have on my side!Posted by anonymous on June 1, 2018
Jed is an excellent lawyer. He was steadfast and prepared for anything that was thrown his way about my case. He did everything I asked him to and more. He reassures me that he was on my side. After countless times of me calling him worried about a court date, he always eased my worries to a minimum. He did more than any lawyer would have done. Financially he really helped me out when he didn’t have to. He gave me a chance to have him by my side. He will never know what an impact he has had on my life all bc he resolved a sticky situation, and let me tell you he wasn’t afraid to get stuck. Thank you, Jed, for giving me a chance and helping me get to the light at the end of the tunnel.Posted by Brittany on January 25, 2018
