RE John Skiba, attorney for Debt Relief & Bankruptcy. I contacted John regarding 2 judgments that were granted in Maricopa County in 2013. I had LOTS of questions & troubling concerns about foreclosing on my totally paid off home and if I were to sell it, what problems I might encounter. After a 30 min consultation, John TOTALLY set my mind at ease. He answered EVERY one of my questions & gave me recommended options and actions to take or NOT to take. I was impressed that BEFORE our conversation, he did research on the HOMESTEAD act changes coming in 2022 AND the actual judgments... so when we spoke & I questioned things he was already TOTALLY aware and had no reservations about recommending possible outcomes. AND he advised me that IF we chose to negotiate for a settlement it would be wise to be prepared to offer 20-40% of the original judgment (in my case), which was also good news. ALL of this was EXTREMELY encouraging & DE-STRESSING. John is GOOOOOD. I never felt "talked down to " or criticized... He truly appeared to be looking for ALL solutions & possibilities WITHOUT me having to ASK & ASK & ASK... I never felt like I was " pulling teeth" to get information needed... He was knowledgeable & prepared for all scenarios. This consultation was a MAJOR success in my book ... Got ALL that I wanted & needed to know and I have a HUUUUUGE sense of relief, actually knowing what I CAN & SHOULD do... Way to go John. ! ! ! ! ! .. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

Tyler White and his team are amazing. Everyone made navigating the daunting and overwhelming process of ALTCS for my ailing father much less stressful. Shannon went above and beyond to help me. I appreciated Tyler’s quick, polite and professional responses to my many questions. I could not have done this without them, nor would my dad be able to stay in the incredible place he’s at without all their help.

Had an untimely death of my father and needed help navigating all the legal hurdles. Ryan Hodges was able to help me out and take care of all the matters of the estate, They told me the fee upfront and that was all I paid to get it taken care of. He was very knowledgeable and always responded in a timely manner if I had any questions.

Ryan Hodges provided exactly the advice my father and I needed, on our timeline, and he did so efficiently and with a friendly demeanor. Every time we reached out, he was extremely prompt with his responses – not only did he have the knowledge immediately at hand to answer our questions, but he also got back to us more quickly than we had any reason to expect. He also asked appropriate questions and met us where we were in terms of understanding (or not understanding) the law. And he is a clear, definitive communicator over email. We will definitely use him again for any estate or probate-related needs.

My experience with Jackson White Law was Great! Worth every dollar! The benefits that were allowed by ALTC for my husband's care, were equal to my attorney fees! In other words; I gained more dollars, than what the cost in the 2nd year of his care! This would have not occurred without the attorney's intervention!As well I had the peace of mind that all forms were filled out correctly! Approval was fast! And I did not have to go thru probate upon his passing because of the advance directives filed with Arizona State by Jackson White Law firm!They have my full recommendation!

Justin W. Is hands down the best lawyer I’ve ever met. Very responsive, attentive to details, personable, I had a impossible case and he got all charges dismissed within 5 minutes of being in the courtroom. Please promote that guy! Also Sheryl is very good at keeping you updated with info through emails and phone calls. Thank you very much for helping me through this very difficult time.

I needed a guardianship over my brother and was referred to JacksonWhite Law firm where I met Colton Johnston who ultimately handled my case. He listened to what I had to say and his firm took over. They were good communicators. I liked their fee schedule and they worked quickly. I definitely would use them again and highly recommend the JacksonWhite Law firm, especially Colton.

I hired Jackson White in 2015 after my mom needed services to protect her estate. Their name was given to me by a gentlemen who placed seniors in care facilities. I was introduced to Ms. Court and was extremely pleased talking with her and having the firm represent me for my mom. Through the years I had further conversations with two attorneys, Ryan Hodges and Colton Johnston who was helpful in answering any questions I may have had concerting the trust. I can say the attorneys I have encountered in this probate were extremely caring and helpful and kept me informed every step of the way inasmuch as this was the first time I experienced their expertise. I would recommend the firm the their attorneys for their kindness and expertise. They were always quick to answer my questions and we did this from afar. I live in San Diego and they in Mesa, AZ. The matter is now closed my mom having passed away in March 2021 but I feel very comfortable knowing that I was treated kindly and professionally.

****I didn't end up using their services (explanation below), but the level of service and information I received was easily 100x better than any information I got from the almost 10 other AZ Employment Law attorneys that I reached out to before contacting Jackson White Law. ****I spoke to the Employment Law Dept.'s legal assistant, Nirali. She was incredibly patient, professional, and actively listened to me. She reviewed my inquiry with one of the attorneys to see if they'd be able to take on my case and she called me back the very next day.Since my claim was for such a small amount, she explained that she didn't want to have me end up losing all the money I could get to attorney fees -- or worse, end up owing more money to the attorney than what I could potentially get. She then gave me information regarding how to pursue my claim myself through the Industrial Commission of Arizona.I cannot express how grateful I am for the time and information Nirali gave me. Thank you so much!

Over the last 10 years I have had to assist with the care and financial matters of close relatives. In 2012, I needed to assume the guardianship and act as conservator for my paternal aunt. I found Jackson White attorneys that specialized in elderly care and would take work in Navajo County, Arizona. I had exceptional assistance, care, and advice. So, in 2020 when my cousin passed away, I turned back to Jackson White.The attorney assigned to me was Ryan Hodges. My cousin had a trust, but I was unable to find it. Mr. Hodges also tried the leads I gave him to locate this trust.As my cousin’s parents preceded him in death, there was no current spouse, and he had no children, I was next in line to probate his estate. I was familiar with his financial affairs since I was assigned his mother’s care in 2012.I reached out to Jackson White and Ryan Hodges. Mr. Hodges was up front and honest with my situation and my cousin’s financial situation. There were 16 cousins and 2 uncles that were part of my cousin’s estate. Ryan candidly advised me that after debts there would be little if any monies left to distribute. I did decide to continue so I could pay my cousins debtors in full.This estate probate was handled in Pima County, Arizona with me residing in New Mexico. Everything was done remotely, and Mr. Hodges arranged for me to call into the court hearing. Mr. Hodges assisted me through the court proceedings, filing of claims, distribution of assets, getting a bond, and finalizing the paperwork.I could not have accomplished the probate without Mr. Hodges and a couple of trips to Florence, AZ. During the pandemic, I was grateful to do everything remotely. And I was relieved that everything was according to current Arizona laws.I successfully became the personal rep for my cousin’s estate. I successfully paid his debtors in full. And Mr. Hodges was right, that there were no assets to distribute to the heirs. But I have my cousin buried with his parents and a clean conscious that those that gave my cousin assistance in the last year of his life were repaid for their out-of-pocket expenses.If I ever need additional assistance from an attorney in Arizona, I will gladly call upon Jackson White.

JacksonWhite Attorneys at Law did a great job at helping me when my husband passed away. Colton Johnston, Brianna Burrows, and the rest of the team at JacksonWhite did an amazing job with helping me during a very difficult time. Colton does not sugarcoat anything but in a good way. He will tell you exactly what is going on and will explain things to you until you understand. And I really needed that so thank you Colton.It may take him 3-4 days to get back with you but he constantly sends emails and will call you if he is not too busy. But I like that if he was too busy someone from the staff will contact you or send you emails. Colton and the rest of the team at JacksonWhite were VERY professional and have integrity. They also have compassion and empathy which is hard to find these days.I would highly recommend them. I have been working with them for almost a year. And I am like Colton, I don’t sugarcoat anything. Thank you so much Colton and everyone at JacksonWhite this was a very hard and difficult year for me and you all made it just a little bit easier for me. Thank you.

I never had to wait on Ryan, most of the time he was waiting on me. He was always so politely and was great at trying to keep me on track. Hopefully I never need a probate attorney again but if I do I will call Ryan at Jackson White!

My wife and I needed to find a probate attorney in Arizona, due to the unexpected death of our son. We lived in Wisconsin, so we needed to rely on recommendations from friends. Ryan Hodges was recommended, and he responded immediately to our phone call request for his services. Ryan guided us thru the probate process very professionally, which we had no idea ahead of time was going to be a long process. I served as personal representative of the estate, and Ryan guided me thru the process with great skill, compassion, and availability at all times. Because of his work, the probate process was made much easier and understandable. His work made my wife and I feel very supported during this difficult time. I highly recommend Ryan Hodges and JacksonWhite Law for probate work.

I was fortunate to come to Mr Hodges at Jackson White Law because it was the law firm used by a friend. I live out of state and was faced with being a trustee of an estate of a deceased friend.I knew nothing about this type of law, but Mr Hodges guided me throughevery step of the process. He answered questions quickly and responsibly. He made suggestions that were helpful and wise. The estate is now settled and I couldn't be happier with how smoothly the process went with Mr Hodges overseeing it all. I would recommend this firm without any hesitation.
