Posted by Stefanie | July 16, 2024 | Real Estate

Excellent lawyer!

Jonas is an extremely caring and fair attorney, who took the time to explain, in detail and in layman's terms, what could and couldn't be accomplished. He was very knowledgeable and allowed me a great deal of time to explain my situation. I highly recommend this attorney for all matters concerning Re...al estate.

Posted by Anita | September 02, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Foreclosure

Extremely competent, professional and honest over almost 4 year period case with Wells Fargo

Over the almost 4 year period since we hired Jonas Jacobson, he has very professional in his service and diligent in his work on my case. The case was due to Wells Fargo wrongly foreclosing on my home in Lexington, Mass and Jacobson succeeded in taking all the necessary steps to handle this less-than...-ideal situation, worked out a very good settlement agreement with Wells Fargo (after having to do a long appeal) and just today handled the closing so that we have paid off this bank, severing our connection with them and salvaging our over $200,000 of equity that would have been lost otherwise. I am extremely grateful to have found Jonas Jacobson and I can personally say the he is the most honest, fair and dedicated lawyer I have ever worked with. I highly recommend him for similar cases or others that he handles.

Great Attorney

A life saver. Attorney always took the time to hear me out, and I always knew he care. Professional, knowledgeable and responsive!! I never had to wait long for him and if he was busy, he would let me know when he would call back. I would recommend attorney Jacobson highly and with confidence.
