Jordan Powell is a very gifted attorney. He represented me following a traumatic incident in 2011 that resulted in serious physical and emotional injuries. The defendant was no lightweight and resisted many attempts to settle the case, resulting in a rare jury trial. Throughout the entire process, my family and I found Jordan to be a consummate professional. He was patient, kind, and attentive. From a legal perspective, he was always prepared. We were humbled by how seriously he took the case, and by how much effort he poured into the many pre-trial affairs and courtroom proceedings. I recommend Jordan without hesitation.
