Valuble expertise and knowledge Thank you !!!! you're the best read more

From my experience these guys are rude, lazy, condescending and do nothing except file initial paperwork. I was left hanging for 2 1/2 years. When I tried to reach one of these guys for updates I never got one of them on the phone and no call back. Finally I dismissed them and took over my case myself AND WAS THEN PAID IN 4 months! I highly recommend you find someone else to handle your case! read more

This is a horrible business as workers comp attorneys. They don't answer or return calls. Records sent to them that does not belong to Gary Jackson of Jackson and Jackson, they don't return. This workers comp attorney is deeply unprofessional. They don't help with my appointment's I had to do it myself. If you ever hire this attorney office of Jackson and Jackson you are doomed to failure in your workers comp case. This workers comp office needs to be investigated. read more

PLEASE READ THIS PLACE IS A SCAM THEY WILL SIMPLY LIE TO YOU. I understand i might be a nobody but these people are the scum of the earth. Avoid this firm. They ignored me for weeks--no calls, no updates, nothing. But the second I said I was firing them, they responded instantly and rushed to close my case. Slow when I needed help, fast only when it benefitted them. My experience: zero communication, zero professionalism. Use someone else. read more

I do not recommend Gary Jackson for anyone seeking representation in a workers' compensation case. My experience with him was extremely disappointing and distressing. I hired Mr. Gary Jackson 2/2024 for a WorkComp case involving multiple injuries which one was in settlement stage. During the course of representation: * He never provided guidance about how to access or manage medical care. I had to handle all treatment and appointments on my own, without his help. * One of my three medical reports went completely unrated, and this wasn't told to me by him -- it was found by the court help center, not my attorney. This could have directly impacted the value of my case. * A settlement offer was sent to his office on May 11, and he never informed me. I only learned about it on May 23 when I spoke to the defense attorney office directly. * After I dismissed him on May 21, I have made multiple requests for my full case file. Over two months later, I still haven't received it. I've filed a formal complaint with the California State Bar, and there is an active investigation into his handling of my case. I'm posting this review so others are aware and can protect themselves. Based on my personal experience, I strongly urge anyone to think twice before hiring Gary Jackson. read more

Pay no attention to the bad reviews. I can see that they were all written by impatient, selfish people. I really appreciate this firm especially for his knowledge, honesty, and attentiveness. He is kind and respectful. He doesn't make me feel rushed when speaking, like most attorneys do. He actually took his time. I can tell that he loves his work. My dad told me many times that, "If you love the job you do you will do it well, and it won't even feel like work, because you enjoy it". If you are a pleasant person then you will appreciate Jackson & Jackson's firm because there you will find pleasant people. The only people who would not appreciate pleasantness are unpleasant people, because it exposes them for what they are, and more than likely makes them feel even more unpleasant. So again, don't judge which lawyer you pick by a review. I can guarantee if you make one call to Jackson & Jackson's firm and talk to someone, just one time, you'll have your decision and know who you want to represent you. read more

Worst attorney, worst staff. No one replies to emails, no one calls back. Mr. Jackson did nothing for me and I was under him for a whole year. Nothing but time and deadlines not met. What a waste of a year under them. Legal assistant cannot spell and comprehend simple english. I requested many docs over months with no replies. Please stay away this place seems sketch and like it is just a front of a business. I wouldn't be surprised if Jackson & Jackson was laundering money and his attorney business is probably just a scam. No quality in this place. read more

I am writing my honest experience with Gary Jackson and I want to say he was the best attorney I have ever contacted. After calling at least 20 firms and not even getting a real attorney to speak with me, I called Jackson and Jackson. Gary called me back within hours, he spend about 2 hours researching the issue at hand, and gave me a terrific answer. There was no claim filed with him, he solved my problem with just a simple answer. Gary spent 30 minutes speaking to me, he was not in a rush to get off the phone, even though he made no money at all in this case consult. I have dealt with many attorneys in my lifetime, but none were that sharp, and you can tell he just really loves being an attorney. Gary was very kind as well. He is not the kind of person who is aggressive and overbearing, Thank you so much. And I noticed that everyone who worked there was very respectful as well, It seemed to be a good office for the staff as well. read more

Start with returning phone calls and emails in 2 days 1 would be better. Im still waiting for a reply to emails I sent Gary 5 or more weeks ago. Please remove yourself from my case I can't get ahold of you anyway. Is this why you talked me into changing law firms to start with? read more

Havent hired them yet. But just by talking with Gary on the phone he does know what he's talking about. Enough for me to want to transfer my case to him. read more

Update on my husband's case's., I fired Jackson & Jackson last Monday! Done, gone, kick rocks! I am In pro-per for my husband now since I've done much of the work most of the years anyway. So, I was able to get a hold of the doctor that did my husband's re-eval on March 4, 2025 for settlement process. Jackson & Jackson kept telling us the report was still not ready and they couldn't get a hold of anyone at the doctor's office, well HE LIED AGAIN! I talked to the receptionist today and she said the report was done on April 4, 2025 and they mailed Jackson & Jackson a copy of the re-eval on April 3, 2025. 76 pages mind you! They have been lying to us the entire year they were on my husband's case! I am furious!! My husband turns 80 this year and he's going down fast because of his severe work injury in 2021. 4 years, this case should have been settled a long time ago. Please, I beg anyone who is looking to hire this "firm" DO NOT DO IT! You will end up losing your case and get nothing in the end. You don't need an attorney, you can do you workers comp on your own. Call the workers comp appeals board and ask them for help, or get free advice from the courts. Again, I'm asking anyone to please avoid these guys at all costs! They were sitting on my husband's cases for a year. I finally said I've had enough and now I'm handling it myself. They never even filed an substitution of attorney for the first 6 months on our case! We had a status conference over the phone with the judge in December 2024, Jackson & Jackson weren't on the first 2 calls (they were supposed to be on the 1st one) The judge was so furious he had to send Jackson & Jackson a letter threatening to sanction them if they were not on the 3rd and final call. All because they didn't file their paper work when we hired them. No one knew who our attorney was. They had our old attorney that was notified, of course he wasn't on the call, he wasn't our attorney. Our case will be settled because of me, I was not about to hire a 3rd attorney if the first 2 couldn't get the job done, I was done with all of them! Jackson & Jackson are conniving, ruthless, rude incompetent "attorneys". They said they were going to put a lien on my husband's case, I said good luck with that, LOL! Look, I'm a nice person, a good person, but if you stab me in the back and screw us over, you will pay the consequences for your actions as should everyone that has bad intentions for innocent people. My husband is old and disabled in severe pain 24/7 and they lied, led him on and abandoned him. They will NOT get away with it. I have proof of all of what I'm saying, and it's in the court file on record about them missing the status conference call. I'm happy to be done with them for good! I tried emailing them today about the re-evaluation being done, they changed their email! What legitimate company does that? And hire 3 other attorneys NOW? Something smells rotten and it's definitely them! Feel free to message me if I can possible help! God Bless read more

I called and spoke to one of the representatives (phone), she was very rude, tried to tell me I had not left messages. I had been calling the 866 area code number for the last 6 months. I finally was able to leave a message and received a return phone call back within 15 minutes, however, the young lady I spoke to was really rude, insisted that she did not know which number I called. When I first got injured they reached out to me, I did not reach out to them. Mr. Jackson is excellent, but the return call system is terrible. I even left a message 2 years ago when I moved and sent an email, however, my address was never updated. Maybe the office staff needs to be a little politer than what I experienced today!! read more

There is plenty of positive comments that can be said about Jackson and Jackson. My first ever experience having to deal with workers comp i was clueless but I trusted the expert and left the matter in there hands. Jackson and Jackson lay it all down on the table to fight for their clients. They are not about wasting clients time. They dig forevery evidence that pertains to their client case to insure that they gather all facts that will be in the favor of their client. From the attorneys to the staff they are courteous and kind and keep you updated on your doctor visits to court case appearance. As a client i can honestly say choose who you like to defend you but if you want a law firm who is knowledgeable and will represent you as a client, and will fight for your rights i highly recommended Jackson and Jackson only speaking from experience read more

Jackson & Jackson is the worse do yourself a favor and do not hire them. as an injured worker and in need for money and in constant pain. The last thing i needed is to fight my lawyers. I had these two clowns Gary and Derek as my lawyers for 8 years they did nothing for me I didn't get a penny they never settle my case. They lied stalled and delayed my case. after 8 years I had enough of these fools. The best day I had having them as my lawyer was the day I fired their sorry ass. They have the emotional compassion of a brick. 8 years wasted I give them a negative 5 star rating read more

I wanted to thank the Jackson & Jackson law firm for helping me on my claims. Gary has worked very hard on my workers comp case. Derek and the office stayed persistent in getting the best results as well. I was able to obtain great doctors and good direction from Gary in a very tough Covid period . I am Blessed to have Jackson & Jackson represent me and would highly recommend them. Michael W read more

THIS IS THE WORST WORKERS COMP LAW FIRM! Do yourself a favor and save the misery. It's bad enough that a work-related injury was sustained but then to add salt to wound, just my luck, using this unprofessional, completely silent and incompetent law firm as my representative. For more than 8 months, I only received 1 phone call and 2 emails, after calling them every other day for my claim status. Rarely someone in his office answers calls. You want a return phone call? Easier to get one from EDD. That's saying a lot. It took over 2 months for me to get a call back. The receptionist kept saying Gary will call you back. Nope, he won't. The nightmare doesn't end there. The insurance company approved a treatment physician, but this law firm never shared the information. After I switched law firms, this firm's receptionist calls me a month later trying to schedule a meeting omg. That's how disorganized and dysfunctional this firm is. Contemplating filing a complaint with the state bar for such low standard and quality representation. The State Bar needs to look into this and remove this firm. read more

Was just an easy paycheck. They didn't care. Gary talked on how they were going to straighten my case out and then radio silence. All of a sudden I'm dealing with Derek. It was not easy dealing with him. He settled for a low ball amount. I got screwed and they allowed it. read more

Gary Jackson at Jackson & Jackson is the the type of person who wakes up every morning with his Yorkshire Terrier named "Frederick", peels off his Avocado Facial, stares at himself in the mirror for an hour and twenty minutes while flexing and admiring his abs at 64 years old and saying "How you doing?!?" (repeatedly), while raising his eyebrows thinking he's the man that every 20-something woman craves and every man wants to be. In other words Gary lost his compassion as an attorney somewhere in the past when his ego grew legs. Meanwhile down here in reality he's that fat overweight guy, sporting a balding-Mullet-comb-over with a handlebar mustache and fake-baked tint from a CVS bottle, representing attorney from the 70's in a suit 4 sizes too small wearing a belt with the buckle facing his feet and hasn't been able to look down in front of him for years. read more

Worst nightmare I've ever have .. this "firm" did not do anything for me other then take paper work to the court house ( could have used a notary instead ) today Jan 3rd 2019 they send me a text for me to review them .. LOL I can't believe they had the guts to ask for my rewiew after they left me hanging there .. in my case- loosing money / time. If you want to save yourself from having the worst nightmare of your life STAY AWAY as possible as you can from Jackson and Jackson " liars" sorry " lawyers- people... You would only be a case number on their books and still charge you for their " paper work delivery " to the court house. I can say more but I'll leave it as that. read more

Thank you Gary Jackson for being there and doing the work. I've never been in this type of situation before and you took care of it. Yes these case take a lot of time, but I could have done it without you and your staff. Good Attorney, hope I never have to use an attorney again, but if I do I'll go to Jackson and Jackson even if it just for a referral. Jackson and Jackson referred us to Cody Payne for another issue and he was Great. Thank you for everything!!! read more

Every negative review below is true! Mr Gary NEVER answers phone calls or emails. The staff at Jackson and Jackson are the most rude and unprofessional individuals I have ever spoken too. Lupe, the so called paralegal, can never answer a question in regards to the case. Veronica the person who is in charge of medical not only raises her voice to clients but also makes one feel unwelcome to call. Not only does this law firm have incompetent staff but also an attorney who does not care about its clients. Stay away from this law firm you will not understand your rights and when you need advise from them you will never get it. They give you all kinds of excuses to close your case and settle. as an injured Individual you are seeking medical attention but for them it's about money not helping the client obtain proper medical treatment. Stay far away! read more

I'm not saying anything bad yet, about Gary Jackson, I'll reserve that opinion for later, but my case started in 2011, and now seems to have just come to a major stall. I can't get anyone at the office to even answer my phone calls, and also have sent multiple emails asking about my case, and not even one reply. He (Gary Jackson) the last time we communicated, told me to use my own personal insurance for treatment on my work injury,since the insurance co. won't ok any treatment, and now that treatment center is trying to bill me for those co-pays AFTER my insurance co. ok'ed some treatment on my injury. But, I have stopped my PT, on my injury because I haven't heard anything from Mr. Jackson, or the insurance Co. So, what can be done to get some answers on my case? read more

Thank you Gary and Derek for everything that you and your staff did for me. It was a long road, but you did it! I am very pleased with the outcome and your staff was exceptional to me. Thx, Sandy F. read more

i had moderate luck with this firm after 10 years communication stopped and after multiple complaints to the state bar i am now looking for another attny .. not much else read more
