Jason helped me to the best of his ability on a parental abduction case very early in his career. The useless police force in Kalamazoo endangered my child by not doing their job, but Jason got me the documents I needed to chase my ex through three states and two court systems. My son has been completely in my care for 15 years and the sperm donor has left us alone. Thank you again Jason.
Jason unfortunately has had to represent me three times now, but I can say without hesitation, I've been able to breathe easier with his representation. Mr. Jansma has been an absolute professional, and his experience, Law knowledge, and his ability to represent clients here in Grand Rapids, MI has facilitated an appropriate charge and thus justice for both the plaintiff and defendant in each instance. I highly recommend Jason Jansma, and direct friends and family whenever possible. (Also extremely Veteran-friendly)
Jason was responsive, professional, and proactive - and helped me navigate a highly contentious divorce that lasted nearly two years. Jason explained the process to me, and always had my, and my children's, best interest in mind. I have already recommended him to a trusted friend of mine who is also getting divorced.
’m not a big fan of the legal community as it has become just another corporate America capatilistic profit making business. However, Jason is a diamond in the rough, his integrity and honesty goes a long way when maneuvering through the legal system. I retained Jason for an orphans court matter he is a zealous advocate for those that retain him.
I am a US Marine veteran and live in a small town north of Kalamazoo. I have left elderly parents and life long friends to live here and raise my daughter as a man should. This place is very out of my element and I am surrounded by people who cause serious trouble for me and they lie to the police to do so. Even the police are corrupt here. I am in the fight of my life at the moment and have hired Jason. In the past he has had cases totally dismissed for me. I am praying he can do it again. He will not sugar coat anything and is up front. I admire him for that. He is respected by me and my family. I was involved with the law and hired another attorney and the charges were dropped but I would like to say "Jason, I apologize for not coming to you 1st and would like to remain with you here on out"
Jason was fantastic. He was responsive, supportive and highly knowledgeable. During difficult times it is important to know you have someone on your side. Jason was certainly that. Jason is personable, professional and willing to fight. I would not have wanted anyone else to handle my divorce and I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal advice. Jaime in his office was just as professional and talented, never did I feel slighted when I could not reach Jason knowing that Jaime was there. If you have legal needs you would be foolish not to speak to Jason Jansma.
Jason represented me in my divorce. I am very pleased with the service I recieved from Jason and his staff. On my final divorce aggreement he put in a provision that I did not even thought of and I am so glad he did! I would recommend Jason in the future.
Jason is a great person and a great lawyer. He was able to negotiate a plea deal of one year in county jail and 5 years probation on a charge that carried a max life sentence. He is very easy to reach, whether its email, phone or text, he's always responsive no matter the time of day. I was able to reach him on Holidays when he was with his family and he still did not rush me and was very open to listen and help. He even worked for me on his vacation. He is very realistic and honest, he does not sell you a dream like a lot of lawyers just to get your money. He lets you know the worst and best scenarios and fights hard for the best possible outcome. It is also a great advantage that he works with a few other very knowledgeable lawyers, so you have a lot more assistance than you would with just a single lawyer handling your case. I would recommend Jason to anyone who is looking for quality representation and results and he will be the first person I call if I ever need legal assistance again!
I was recently defended by Jason. I was up for 3rd offense felony DUI. I requested that the 3rd offense felony charge be dropped to 2nd offense OWI, little to no jail time, and have my probation moved to my home county. Jason made good on all my requests! I would recommend Jason to all who want the best possible outcome. He isn't cheap. But you get, what you pay for!
Jason was a phenomenal lawyer. He did everything he could and was supposed to do. He knows the rules, books, etc. I certainly recommend him if you get DWI.
