Jason is a pure professional from start to finish, he listens to what his client is looking to accomplish and has a action plan to get it done. He was able to adjust with Covid restrictions and make the proactive steps to get things done! I am completely satisfied with my experience, so much so I will refer anybody to him that is in a similar situation that i was in. I wouldn't look anywhere other than right here to get the results you are looking for!

Attorney Hurst is by far the most amazing lawyer I have ever read about, worked with, and recommend. He is beyond prompt, extremely knowledgeable of the legal system and never swayed from my priority. One thing that is simply extraordinary, is his ability to comfort and soothe any and all questions/concerns without making you feel like a bother. He made himself available at all hours of any day. I experienced a very traumatic situation and he is the reason I will always feel relieved and accomplished, knowing he will always be present at a time of crisis. He has incredible reviews and to now add my own- I can only hope each person who comes across his contact information doesn’t hesitate to retain his talents and abilities. Attorney Hurst is simply a blessing and I wish many others will reach out to him and realize there is truly nobody better to represent them. From minor to most challenging cases, he is the only Lawyer I will ever choose.

Jason Hurst's level of detail in understanding was impressive. He looked for alternatives and solution the would benefit me as his client. Jason continually moved the case forward tenaciously when the opposing parties were not responsive and the level of follow up exceeded my expectations the during all of my interactions with him.

I remember talking with Jason for the first time. I was talking a mile a minute, I was frustrated, angry, and literally sad for society. I was coming into direct first hand knowledge of how unhealthy we are as a society. I was firing my first attorney and needed someone dynamic. My case wasn’t about who was paying for braces and college, I had learned that the father of my children was involved and had knowledge of a sexual predator touching at least one of our children. This was a case about keeping my children safe from someone who already repeatedly and with acknowledgement violated our children and their safety. Jason listened to me, and then he silenced me. Now you may think that’s bad, it isn’t. What I needed was someone who could hear me, think quick, have as much passion or more then me AND be able to put me in check if needed to remove my emotions so that he could artfully translate all of that into a executable document. From that moment I knew I had found my attorney. Jason had the task of going back and trying to undo what had been done and not done by the previous attorney and my children’s attorney. Jason had to fight for me to get therapists involved, transitions plans, protocols, hard stops in place. At every single turn he got me what I felt necessary for my children’s protection. At every single turn he was winning this for us. At the end Jason Hurst won the safety of my children. When he called me in December to tell me all the documents were signed, we were going to avoid trial all I could do was cry. For the first time I was able to breathe in two years. Breath is a gift we often forget to be thankful for...not me Ask me why you should invest the money into hiring Jason Hurst...my response is you cannot afford not to. Your health and your family is all that matters. You most certainly need an intellectually gifted attorney who can play against the best. JASON DOES THAT. You will need an attorney who will listen to you with out judgement, sexism, classism. You will need an attorney who isn’t blinded by the nonsense and can see clearly what is happening JASON DOES THAT. You will need an attorney who will make time and space for every question you have no matter how many times you ask them. JASON DOES THAT. You will want an attorney who can talk to all parties with a calmness that makes people either rise to the occasion or yield to his professionalism, character and style. JASON DOES THAT. You will want an attorney that wins. JASON DOES THAT. Oh yeah in case you didn’t know Jason Hurst is a super attorney. Jason is so humble that he shrugs that off. What that means is not only do clients think he’s amazing and that he has a high success rate, his peers feel the same way about him as his clients! What type of psychological power do you think that gives you with him on your team. Now write the check and let him handle it. You will breathe better!

Working with Jason was easier than I could have imagined. He understood my concerns, needs, and emotions. He worked diligently until I was beyond satisfied with the results. I knew he was working in my best interest from the beginning to the end of case. I pray that I never have another family law issue, but if I do, I know exactly who I'm calling.
