I had the pleasure of working on (against) a case with Mr. Strauss. He was very professional and we were able to come to a mutually unhappy resolution (a good settlement) for both of our respective clients.
I learned he was a fellow alumnus and he advocated well on behalf of his client. He since became a staple in the community. After successive negotiations, we were able to amicably resolve the case and started working together since.
I recommend this attorney.

Jason was knowledgeable and helpful every step of the way. Having to go through a partition action for the first time was extremely stressful and confusing. The fact that I had Jason represent me through this process made it much easier. He represented my best interests and got me what I deserved. If I was ever in the same situation I would not hesitate to give him a call or refer him to someone that was in my same situation

Mr. Borchert was hired for a contract to sell mixed use property. When the deal did not go through because of buyers negligence, Mr. Borchert was able to negotiate the release of entire earnest deposit and the right for us to put our house back on the market or rent said premises. Highly recommended and a job well done.

Mr. Gelpi was supposed to be acting as my attorney but instead never returned phone calls, emails or text messages and did not represent me in my court hearing by filing papers on behalf and the judge made a FINAL DECISION without any representation on my behalf. I am totally shocked that an attorney can be so NEGLIGENT. Do not have this man represent you under any circumstances.
