Whittel & Melton, LLC

I was referred to Tom Jerla by my very close friend who has worked with him in the past. I had a car accident, he was on top of my car case from day one. He responds promptly and kept me informed. He explained things to me in a way that was "easy to understand lawyer terms". Every step of the way Tom was there for me. He is a great communicator, constant professional and always honest with me. I would definitely recommend him directly and Whittel & Melton, LLC. as well.
Tom Jerla is an excellent lawyer.

Tom Jerla was recommended to me by a trusted friend for my auto accident claim. Tom kept me in the loop on every detail and would take lengthy periods of time to give me all the various a species of how my case was progressing. Tom even took the time to explain his well executed strategy prior to putting it into play. I was quite satisfied with the outcome of my case despite some challenges with the defendants, it worked out well. I value Tom Jerla and Whittle and Melton and will gladly send my friends to them.

Jason Melton is an absolutely amazing attorney. He’s a lion in the courtroom. I’ve seen him pull off amazing victories...and not just with me. He’s not your typical lawyer. He’s a genuinely good guy. Thanks for winning my case, and seeing to it that I understood everything along the way. God forbid anything else happens, you’ll certainly be the first person I call. Glad to have you in my corner. Thanks Whittel & Melton!

We are not sure how this law office gets five star reviews. Our experience was anything but five stars. If I could put zero star I would. We contacted this office for a potential work discrimination case back in June 2018. We actually called three different offices in the area and Whittel and Melton were the first to call and immediately took the case. We guess they did not do any prior due diligence from the statements we wrote about the facts of the case since yesterday the paralegal, Peter Linton-Smith, told us over the phone that they were not representing us. We felt blindsided as these people (very unprofessional) made us lose crucial time in the case. In addition, we believe that the staff is very incompetent. As an example, Peter Linton advised us to sign a form labeled "Separation and Release of Claims Agreement" on the premise that signing this form would have not waived our rights to sue. We were shocked by his incompetence considering that the title of the form alone clearly stated that it is a release of claims meaning that we would have waived our rights to future lawsuits against the company if we had signed the form. When it comes to discrimination, we believe that this firm only goes after cases where explicit racial slurs are used. During several conversations, the paralegal kept asking us whether any specific words were used. Although we did not include any such allegations in our written statements, but the fact that he kept asking made us suspicious that without certain trigger words they would not know how to pursue a discrimination case. Overall, our experience with this firm was extremely poor. We spoke with the attorney, Jay, only once when he jumped to take the case. Otherwise, we were left to deal with a paralegal who clearly had no clue of legal issues and procedures.
