Thank you for your interest in our law firm. In order to get started and/or answer your questions, we request that you call our office to schedule an initial consultation so that one of our attorneys can evaluate your legal concerns and provide meaningful advice. We offer in-office as well as telephone consultations. Please call the office at 904-823-3333 or 386-366-4848 to schedule your 1-hour consultation. There is a $150 fee for the 1-hour consultation. This is a reduced hourly rate for our attorneys. Personal injury cases are on a contingency fee and thus there is no consultation fee. If the $150 is something you are unsure about we can offer a free 15 minute consultation where no legal advice is given, but you get the opportunity to speak with one of our attorneys.

Please make sure to provide all documentation that may be relevant to your matter prior to your scheduled consultation. This will save time and legal fees and enable us to have a meaningful consultation. Oftentimes, prospective clients are able to leave our initial consultation with a game plan for addressing their legal concerns without any further fees.

Please call to schedule your initial consultation as soon as is practicable. Thank you again for contacting Jackson Law Group. We look forward to hearing from you.
