Jac Schuster is the best probate attorney I ever met he stays in contact with his clients he is always on top of his cases and he makes sure his clients needs come first I highly recommend this attorney
Jac is a man of integrity. He is a professional in every sense of the word. I used him last year, no issues whatsoever.
Jac is an excellent resource for legal consult. I ask him random questions all over the board, and I can always count on Jac for great advice. I always feel better about the direction I take after speaking with Jac.
Mr. Schuster really stepped up to the plate in handling my case. Not only did he provide proper counsel, he also maintained frequent contact and kept me informed every step of the way. I can and will recommend without any reservation, attorney Jac Schuster for any of your legal needs.
Jac’s passion and attention to detail serve his clients well.
Jac knows contested probate & explains it well so you can understand. He knows how to protect you & your assets.
I endorse this lawyer. I have known Jac for years and am familiar with his professionalism and work ethic. A client hiring Jac would be fortunate to have obtained his services.
I highly recommend Jac. I referred a client on a sensitive matter and Jac has handled the case with compassion and above and beyond hard work.
I would like to thank Mr. Jac Schuster for an excellent job in handling my legal affairs. He proactively resolved all of my issues and completed the job in a timely manner. He was very proficient and straight forward in handling my concerns. He is a great coach to be on your side line and as well as an attorney. He will take the time he needs with you and not take all of your money. He is more than the typical lawyer. He truly has his client’s best interest in mind. He is a God loving man, more interested in doing the right thing and not draining your bank account. Mr. Schuster is a trustworthy human being and very knowledgeable in the area of law he practices. Thank you for all your hard work . . .
