"Jason took the time to understand my desires with expediting my divorce and the risks I faced with a manipulative, volatile spouse. He took the time to understand the challenges and the opportunities with my spouse and to be respectful, assertive, protective, confidential and diligent about leveraging his skills and experience to expedite my divorce, when my spouse had engaged an attorney with the desire to drag out the divorce forever and, if possible, waste as much of my time and money as possible in the process. . . . Jason does not play games. Jason knows how to read a situation and navigate through it quickly, without pride or ego playing a role."
