REVIEWS

  •   This law firm helped my dad greatly through an age discrimination case. Would highly recommend.

      I went to see this company for my husband and I estate planning. And honestly don't know how to explain the amazing experience we had with this company. Dustin Burton was so on top of everything, we just gave him all our information and he took over. He made it so easy and trust me it wasn't. He even noticed our mortgage was only in my name for some reason and took it upon himself to do the extra work and file the papers to get it fixed in both our names. Absolutely 5 or more stars. If I need anything I'm trusting these guys.

  •   If I could give 10 stars I would! Jon and his team are some of the most professional and caring individuals my family and I have come across. My father and I walked into our consult with Jon with tears in our eyes and full of confusion. As a small business owner, a lawsuit can be your worst nightmare. Jon showed so much compassion, patience and understanding for our case. He did an outstanding job with the representation and we will forever be grateful for his honest and hard work.

    If you're in need of an knowledgable, efficient and dedicated attorney - Jon Webster is definitely the one!

      I reached out to this law firm with a question about a legal matter and got a call back from a really nice guy. He took the time to ask questions and investigate my situation thoroughly. Even though he determined I didn't have a case, he explained everything to me in a way I could understand. This was a big deal for me because I'm going through a tough time and it involves a lot of money. I appreciate that he treated me with respect and gave me clear answers. I would definitely recommend this law firm based on my experience.

      5 stars all the way. Jon represented us in a pretty complex case against a nasty cell tower tenant of ours and let me tell you this guy is good. Down to earth and no bs. Him and his team are always polite, return calls and emails and actually they were always waiting on us as they were on it.

    Opposing counsel was a shark and Jon tamed her and we ended up with a best case scenario. He worked with our budget and was honest as can be.

    We are forever grateful to Jon and his team and will use him again if needed.

  •   STOP......
    Do NOT trust this guy.... he LIES. PERIOD.

    NEVER trust a person who lies.
    When would you know that he is not lying to you.

    Based on my experience with him, he is a lire and an incompetent attorney - check his credentials to make sure he is worth what he charges you per hour.

    He is only after getting your money and prolonging the case to get more money out of you.

      I'm in the process of buying sn S-corp and was lost on how to get started. I called hoping to get advice and was expecting a long expensive process. I was transferred to Jon who answered all of my questions in a succinct manner. He walked me through exactly what I need to do to transfer the corporation to my name.

    In less than 20min, he made a huge daunting task seem straightforward. He was super friendly (and a fellow dog lover who congratulated me on my dogwalking business). I am very grateful and will definitely employ him if I need more help in the future.

  •   This group was so professional, kind and responsive to my calls.

    Dustin was so great to work with an overall seems like a good person who wants to help people and isn't just seeking out an extra penny for himself. What more can you ask for? Very thankful.

      Called a month ago for supposedly a free consultation. A couple of calls and emails later with the paralegal, still no consultation and again asked me to re-spell my name as if to create a profile like on my first call. Very frustrating and insulting to say the least.


    6/26: Jon. Thanks for your response. You might want to check with Rudy. He got all my info on the first call to satisfy your need to avoid conflict of interest. He mentioned you're in court everyday and will check on my case the next week. I waited 4 weeks. I'm glad you found time to reply to my yelp review. I don't think it's appropriate that I was ignored by your team the way they did. I would've accepted a 'I'm sorry we can't help you' answer. Wish I could give a negative star. All the best.

      This review is for Dustin Burton. My family and I recently went through the unbearable loss of our mother. Emotionally, I was a wreck. I couldn't think straight, let alone think about all the paperwork and processes associated with ensuring her estate was taken care of. Dustin went above and beyond for us to ensure we were provided compassionate, competent, and professional legal services. He picked up and spoke to us on the phone and answered our questions. When he didn't know the answer, he researched the issue and followed up. He made several personal visits when paperwork needed to be signed and completed. The services he provided included: legal research, will drafting, notary services, estate declarations, dispute resolution, and lodging documents with the court. Notably, Dustin provided these services during a worldwide pandemic. My family and I are incredibly grateful to have had Dustin help guide us through the most traumatic period of our lives. He is an incredible asset to this firm and a wonderful advocate for his clients.
