Kathleen A. Jackson's Lawyer Endorsements
"Kathleen is a brilliant legal tactician. She has a keen insight into the law, a quick mind, and a courageous spirit. She’s a frequent presence at the housing court, and has contributed untold hours assisting low income tenants on a pro bono basis as the lawyer for the day in both the Springfield in Pittsfield court houses. I have referred several clients to her and received only glowing reviews of Kathleen’s representation and tremendous gratitude for the great results she obtained. I give Kathleen my highest recommendation."
"Kathleen is an experience trial lawyer and great advocate. She knows Title IX (college discrimination/sexual assault/etc.) as well as employment discrimination law. I recommend her highly."
