"Attorney Blanchard continuously impresses with his poise under pressure, his drive to succeed, and his integrity. Few attorneys retain as much insight into procedural and legal issues as Attorney Blanchard. Because of the high standard he holds himself to, he has earned the trust and respect of members of the criminal law practice on all sides of the courtroom. While there are many attorneys with bark, he has bite. He knows his stuff, and isn’t afraid to use it. He is not only quick on his feet and sure of himself in the courtroom, he has the real confidence of knowing that he can back up any representations he makes. Many clients may mistake an attorney with false bravado to be one with talent and experience. But, what may look good on the outside may be rotten beneath.

He has superior litigation skills in both the presentation of cases and in cross examination of witnesses. I am a better trial attorney because of his incite and supervision."
"I have known Jerome Blanchard since we were both Assistant Rockingham County Attorneys from 2000-2005. When we worked together, I immediately noticed that he was an aggressive, fair, hardworking and talented prosecutor and he now takes those skills to the other side of the aisle as one of the premier defense attorneys in the area. Jerome has handled many high profile cases in his career and takes it all in stride without the need for any fanfare or recognition. He maintains his confidence during a trial and was always willing to try a case when other prosecutors would not touch the file - and more often than not, he was able to win the trial that was "un-winnable." As a friend and colleague, Jerome has my highest endorsement."
"Attorney Blanchard is an outstanding trial attorney. As a prosecutor he was a zealous advocate for the State and worked tirelessly to ensure that a just result was achieved. He enjoys my complete trust and highest endorsement."
"Jerome Blanchard is one of the most talented trial lawyers I have ever seen. His clients are well served by his depth of knowledge of the law as well as his ability to persuade judges and jurors. He is experienced, professional and ethical. I highly recommend him!"
