He helped us through a complicated short sale of my home successfully. He recognized problems as they developed and addressed them immediately. Great communication, very timely and very reasonable fees.

I met Jace several years ago and have used him for matters personal and professional. I have also referred him to my financial advisors and CPA's who have also been very impressed with his services. I wholeheartedly endorse Jace.

I worked with Jace McKeighan to design a trust for my family. He spent a considerable amount of time designing a plan that took our financial situation, life goals, and the needs of our children into account. He listens to your concerns, brings a wealth of experience to the table, and provides outstanding follow on support as issues arise. I highly recommend his work and will turn to him for my future legal needs.

I used Mr. McKeighan's services approximately two (2) years ago. Jace was excellent and provided me with his expert insight and talent in setting up my law practice. Jace made my difficult decision in forming my own practice very smooth and worry free. Every step of the way was explained to me and put me at ease. I would strongly reccommend Jace.

I met Jace McKeighan a little over 3 years now as a client. We utilized Jace's service then and liked his direct approach to situations. We retained his services, and have been utilizing him exclusively on all of our legal needs. His approach to several issues can be characterized as one that focuses on solving the issue rather than escalating it. Most of all, Jace stands out because of his genuine concern for the well being of our company and the stakeholders. Over the span of utilizing Jace's service, he has always been there to answer and guide our team with complex situations. In short, I highly recommend Jace McKeighan for all of your legal needs.
