I am currently represented by Jason in regards to an insurance claim. If you're looking for a lawyer that has the experience and skill to work in your best interest, Jason Melton and his team is your go-to. This was my first time seeking counsel, I was not dissapointed.
We needed a good lawyer - somebody who understood both the law and the community - Mr. Melton was great - the conclusion of our case was really better than we had thought was possible.
I choose Mr. Melton through his web site information. He was excetionally knowledgeable of the laws concerning injury liability. His representation and knowledge resulted in a very positive outcome on my behalf.
I hired Mr. Melton to handle a Criminal Case where I had three very serious charges. Mr. Melton took the time to listen to what had happened, explained thoroughly what I was facing and told me the worst and best outcome that I would be facing. He kept me informed as to how things were progressing prior to court and in the end, he was able to get my charges dropped and keep me out of jail. Although I never plan on making such a stupid mistake again, I always keep him in mind when I hear of anyone needing a lawyer. He doesn't back down and doesn't just make deals to move onto the next case. He's a fighter and worth every penny.
I was in an accident and contacted Mr. Melton to help me. He was very knowledgable and kept me informed every step of the way. Anytime I called the office the staff was helpful and all of my questions were answered quickly. My case was resolved faster than i expected and I am very happy with the results.
The whole staff at Whittel & Melton was nice and always ready to help. However, I worked mostly with Jason. He demonstrated that he understood what to expect with our case and better that he cared about what was happening. I was very pleased with the outcome of our case.
Mr. Melton represented me in my DUI 10 months ago. From the very beginning, he explained to me what was at stake and eventually was able to get the prosecutor to reduce my charges. He was also able to get my driver's license back while I was waiting for my criminal case to be resolved. I would recommend Mr. Melton because he does not sugar coat things and would respond to my phone calls in a timely manner. His staff is also very nice.
I had the experience of working with Jason Melton and what I can say is this, he is honest, and will fight hard for you to ensure you are represented in the best possible manner. While I am not willing to go into specifics about my case, I can tell you that you wont regret working with him. If you need a straight shooter, Jason Melton is worth a look.
