My situation might be unique, or maybe not. I had representation for a car accident sustained in 2016, but my lawyer and I really didn't get along. It got so bad that the lawyer I was working with, discharged me as a client. I was actually glad because it was an answer to prayer because I felt my lawyer was biased, in a bad way. Not to mention, he did absolutely no real work on my case! It had been approaching 4 years at that point. I got introduced to Jackson Legal Services through Mr. Jackson's colleague, Attorney Veda Rasheed. What a breath of fresh air!!! She was pleasant, professional, and very helpful. Mr. Jackson and Ms. Rasheed showed that they cared, and were very honest, which is what I really needed and wanted since my case had been open so long. Being a person of color, I felt they understood my situation, pain and suffering, lost wages, surgeries, and such the like! I knew my other attorney wasn't diligent with his work or approach to my case. I felt and knew that Attorney Jackson and Attorney Rasheed would see things from my perspective along with informing me about the law, and how insurance companies operate. I recommend without any hesitation, Attorney Jackson and Attorney Veda Rasheed for any legal issue surrounding car accidents, injuries, and recovery. I truly thank them from the bottom of my heart for my settlement recovered at an amount that I believe I truly deserve!

A friend recommended Martinis Jackson as the Attorney who would make certain my Mother would be taken care of both mentally and physically after she was involved in a serious car accident due to someone else’s negligence. He and his team worked tirelessly to ensure she had Medical treatment, Physical Therapy and was compensated to the fullest extent allowed by law. Mr. Jackson’s team, lead by Edrea Spivey patiently worked with us explaining in detail the paperwork and steps needed during the process. Walking was difficult during the ordeal and COVID-19 limited her ability to go to the office for feedback and updates with Attorney Jackson. This did not stop him or his team throughout the entirety of the case from keeping us abreast of what was happening via Web Conference. The case was long and arduous but the patience and professionalism of Attorney Jackson and his team made the entire litigation process as painless as possible. He comes HIGHLY recommended by this Old Soldier and his Grateful Family. Deeds not Words!

Martinis was a pleasure to work with. I had questions and was unfamiliar with the process. He was patient, clear and concise in answering my questions. When I had a follow up, he was timely, made himself available and made the whole process less overwhelming and scary. I really appreciated how he handled my case because he listened, knew what I wanted and got the results that I needed. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking for legal representation.

Jackson Legal Services did an amazing job handling my case. I wasn't sure if I even had a claim against the restaurant that caused my allergic reaction but Mr. Jackson fought for me and I ended up getting way more money than expected. I would highly recommend his services to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney! In addition, his team did a superior job with communicating with me and helping me understand the process. Lastly, I would like to thank Mr. Jackson and his team for advocating for me and ensuring my best interest.

Martinis did a great job handling my car accident case. At first, before I got an attorney, the insurance company offered me a little over a thousand dollars. But Martinis refused to accept it and we ended up getting significantly more, Great experience Highly recommend his services.

Martinis did a very professional job handling my car accident case. Initially, the insurance company offered a very low offer but Martinis was diligent about getting us more compensation and we ended up receiving 3x the original offer. His efforts helped us through a very difficult process. I would highly recommend his services.

Being in the field that I am in, it is essential to have your ducks in a row to be protected. Martinis and his team has been a true asset in making sure I am protected and that negotiations strong and carried out fully. Thanks,

Working with Martinis Jackson and his team I felt a sense of simplicity. The team was on every email and tracked down all necessary parties with a pretty fast close out. Will highly recommend!
