I was injured in a motor vehicle accident whereby I was rear-ended at a stop light. The accident was completely at no fault of my own. The lady had bare minimal insurance and yet her insurance company was fighting me. In the end, Jess was able to fight for me and prove my injuries. He then went to my underinsured and was able to do same. Never did I feel like a number and I was always treated with such compassion and caring from his firm.

At a most crucial time in my life, when as a plaintiff in a case I found myself in search of legal representation of a type most lawyers care not to deal with, my path led me to the door of Jess A. Lorona. As such, and while litigation continued on over a period of several years, I came to realize just how important my decision to team with Jess actually was...both for the outcome of my case in a legal sense and for the way that I would forever look at the profession of law and legal system, thereafter. The particularly cruel nature of the legal system, by definition, can be tamed significantly by a lawyer sensitive to that nature, yet willing to take it on, nonetheless. Jess is one such lawyer. Although important to me, it isn't that the elements of my case were so profoundly interesting to the outside world; but that through the process of managing and implementing my case strategy, Jess developed a uniqueness to my case, a persona as it were, and one that I believe ultimately resulted in a certain respect from our adversaries and the court. And I believe that this, bolstered by facts and accuracy, has led to the peace I feel from my experience with the legal system. Jess not only accepted my case, he believed in me. It is one thing to believe someone, and quite another to believe in someone. As I came to understand what guided Jess along his own path of development as an individual and a lawyer, I too believed in him. I found comfort in his friendly yet assertive demeanor. I was confident in the presentation of my case to the court because Jess was always prepared by the time a deadline rolled around. I enjoyed reading his assertions on my behalf, and he always allowed for my input, and in fact was eager to have it. Years of the accumulation of knowledge and life experience by Jess came together for me at precisely the right moment. And you have to love his smile! I know that Jess is a family man and that he puts his faith not in his own plan, but in His plan. I can only imagine the peace in his heart for his approach to life for himself; for those whom he loves and is loved by; and, for his approach and favor toward the life of his clients and their loved ones. With gratitude, I am a better man, a better person, a better believer because of my relationship with Jess. And further, I pray that others will choose as I have and place their confidence and case in the hands of Jess A. Lorona; an honest, qualified, respected and loved, lawyer and gentleman.

Lorena Mead is by far the most trusted attorney's you will ever meet. I have known the work of Jess Lorona for may years and he is the only person I would entrust my legal issues too. In this day and age where trust and the attorney don't usually go hand in hand, Lorona Mead is a breath of fresh air. Their work, integrity, and diligence will give you a restored faith in lawyers.

Excellent. Honest. Knows the Law. Jess cares for his clients. Jess greatly supported me in a legal manner and cared for me as a person. I refer people to Jess often and the feedback is always positive. Jess always remains my first choice because he consistently makes excellent decisions. Roger

Jess is probably one of the best lawyers in the Valley. He is well respected and well known amongst the judges. You would be hard pressed to find a better, more experienced attorney who knows how to navigate the AZ court system. Jess was always able to answer my questions, gave me options and was able to expedite the process. I would highly recommend Jess Lorona and his firm for any legal work.

Like many in college I got into some BIG trouble at ASU, luckily Jess was somehow at the courthouse when I made my appearance and my mother got his info. I was looking at 3 years in pink underwear, Arizona understandably was throwing the book at violators at the time. Thanks to Jess I was able to avoid any jail time and as a result was able to create a good life for myself. I wish trouble on nobody yet if in a bind Jess can help you avoid doing time. Sincerely, Jeremy
