I was referred to Jerry Denton after meeting with several other personal injury attorneys. I knew immediately after meeting with him, this was who I wanted in my corner. Mr. Denton is personable and compassionate with his clients, yet a very skilled and aggressive negotiator. He not only met but exceeded my expectations in every aspect of my case.

I was represented by Mr. Jeremiah Denton in a complex case spanning over two years involving custody of children, a veteran, complex mental health issues, financial issues and much more. The outcome I sought was very rarely granted in the state of Virginia. However, it was granted in my favor. Without question I know that it was Mr. Denton's extremely competent representation and broad experience in presenting this complex case that brought the resolution I hoped for. Two able opposing attorneys put great energy into their presentation of their case. But it was Mr. Denton's measured cross examinations that delivered a clear understanding of the facts which the judge followed with interest. Mr Denton played no games; he was prepared on complex facts and spoke to the point. During the course of this case he was always available to meet and he and his entire team delivered support during a very difficult time. Anyone seeking an attorney would be very fortunate to have his representation.

We met Jeremiah A. Denton III when searching for a lawyer to handle our son's defense against a civil suit. We regret not having met him earlier in this process for the criminal defense as we are certain things would have been different for our son today. However, we did find him for the civil suit and he believed in our case. Jerry Denton and his team fought an uphill battle for our son. He took what appeared to be a lost cause and turned it around to let a jury see the truth of what actually happened in our son's case. He was dedicated and tough. He was knowledgeable, competent, and confident in and out of court. He treated us with compassion and understanding. Jerry's team was also diligent and supportive! Our experience with Jerry and his team has given us hope that someone is on our side and will stand by us.

The guy has swagger, no doubt, and he will tell you that you can file suit against someone and "oh yes, we can do this for you!" type of attitude which is great. But the billing is astronomical and what's worse is your $5k retainer will be eaten up right away and well before you go to trial and then they want you to pay it forward, you cannot pay your fees in installments with this firm. And Jerry has no problem calling you like a collection agency and demanding to know where your bill's payment is or else they can't proceed (and he'll talk to you like you are a convict just making excuses to not pay, it's extremely upsetting when you've already paid thousands). So you're really caught in a hard spot because you've spent so much to date and accomplished nothing and then you realize your attorney has no problem treating you like you are a deadbeat, so you really don't want to deal with him after that point. Far from a class act. He wanted $25k to defend a small $6k judgement but he wasn't up front about that estimate until the 5k retainer was used up. He should have informed us it would have cost far more than $6k for his services in the matter, this would be ethical. I would rather have lost the $6k and not attempted to retain his services. I wish he had been more honest. We're military officers and we thought we could trust him but this guy makes a lot of money without ever going to trail, I imagine, from people just like us. We had far better relations with a much larger firm that's not known for trial work but at least they gave us excellent and straightforward advice and used our money effectively. Our work with Jerry was impersonal and extremely expensive and came to nothing. Beware

If it wasn't for this man and his staff I would not have had such a great outcome with my case. Everyone at this firm is very knowledgeable, gentle but stern, and straight to the point. Never in my life did I see such wrong doings going to be done to me but Mr. Denton knew what had to be done to get what was deserved. Justice, peace of mind, my life back on track, these are just a few out of several to list that this firm did for me and without them who knows what would of happened but I will say, I trust these people with everything and I couldn't have had any better legal representation from any other firm. Thank you guys so much.

We consulted with Jeremiah Denton on a breach of contract matter, and received direct and forthright advice on how to proceed. Mr. Denton's expertise and professionalism led us to ultimately resolving the issue in the most smooth and straightforward manner possible. He and his team of exceptional staff members come highly recommended!

We were referred to Attorney Denton from a trusted friend. It is not an understatement to say he changed our lives and restored our faith in the legal system. From the first meeting of our defamation suit against a large corporation he provided a clear understanding of our case and the possible directions it would take. Over the next two years he would update us as he continued to refine, analyze and research for trial. I don't feel we would have reached the same conclusion with another attorney and would wholeheartedly recommend Attorney Denton and his staff.

Jerry guided me through the legal maze of a very high profile aviation accident where a pedestrian was fatally injured. This accident occurred while attempting an emergency landing with zero visibility because of an oil-covered windshield. The oil came from a broken crankshaft, which resulted in loss of the aircraft propeller. When the first hearing was convened, there were eleven lawyers in the courtroom, quite an intimidating experience for an average citizen. Jerry provided professional guidance and defense thru this entire ordeal which lasted almost four years. Jerry was steadfast, compassionate and professional in my defense and worked tirelessly to bring about a settlement. This lawsuit didn't result as I had originally hoped for, but given all of the options, the outcome could have been much worse. Thanks Jerry.

Jeremiah Denton won two huge defamation cases for our family. He was professional and passionate. Jeremiah and his staff were hard working legal experts. He was thoroughly prepared and presented his case with zeal and enthusiasm. He was always honest and open in his advise to us. I could not have found better legal counsel.
