Nicole & Patrick K., Clients
"Great working with Jacob and his team! We had what we needed quickly and Jake explained everything thoroughly and answered all of our questions!”
Tim D., Client
"It's obvious that if you need an attorney, you're not in a good spot. Mr. Jake Ark was referred to me by a friend. And that referral was spot on! Jake was extremely attentive to my concerns and worked with me to ensure I was comfortable with all choices made during our meetings.
Jake's personality and attention to detail impressed me significantly. His non-judgmental approach reassured me that my case was progressing as expeditiously as possible, and that I had made the right decision to hire him. He often times had to reassure me that patience is a virtue and trust in him. I did and it worked out in my favor. I feel Jake went above and beyond in accompanying me to an after-action meeting, that I asked if he could attend. No hesitation or excuse was mentioned. He just did it! Jake is an easy individual to get to know and speak with and will work tirelessly with you to work towards the proper end."
Jen P., Client
"Fantastic response time. I found myself in an extremely time-sensitive situation and I was able to get the help I needed from Jacob and his staff in an unprecedented amount of time. Not only did Jake draw up the appropriate paperwork quickly, he and his staff were pleasant, professional, knowledgeable and empathetic. As inconvenient as my timing and location were, they put my needs first; and instead of feeling guilty for needing last minute help, they made me feel at ease without hesitation. Thank You! I appreciate you and your staff. I will definitely call again if necessary, in advance of course.”
