Quick Resolution to Business Dispute

I highly recommend this Jake Tuckfelt for his expertise in commercial litigation. His expertise in the handling of business disputes and partner issues was crucial for my start up business Honey Buz. He has ensured that my business can grow and my successful transition to sole ownership. Jake's strat...egic approach and dedication to my business's needs have been invaluable. An exceptional choice for any business owner facing legal challenges. T Lewit Founder/Owner Honey Buz

Unparalleled competency and exprience

I wish I could give more than 5 stars!!!! The average person doesn't get married to get divorced but unfortunately, you never really know someone until you divorce them. But, if you have someone like Mr. Tuckfelt and his entire staff in your corner, you can rest assured that you are in the right han...ds. Mr. Tuckfelt's knowledge of the law, ethics and professionalism is above reproach. From the first moment I met him and told him what was important to me, he made sure that became our shared goal. He advocated for me at every turn and made a terrible situation bearable. He was never too busy for me; he responds to phone calls and emails in a very timely manner and if he could not get back to me, someone from his very knowledgable and professional staff would get back to me with his thoughts and opinions. Some attorneys thrive on making a contentious situation worse; if your goal is to "screw" your ex, Mr. Tuckfelt is not that kind of attorney. He is a honest, "no-pushover", bulldog who will tell you the brutal honest truths and fight like **** for you. Every time we had to go to court, he was well prepared with reasonable and fair arguments that were well supported with prior case law. I have recommended Mr. Tuckfelt to others and will continue to do so without any reservations.

Highly recommended!

Divorce is never easy, but what do you do when your attorney is incompetent and spends more time yelling at you than at your ex's attorney? The answer is simple: fire them and hire Jacob Tuckfelt!!! From the first moment I met Mr. Tuckfelt, I noticed that he gave me 100% of his attention and real...ly tried to understand all of the problems my former husband, and attorney, caused me. Over the course of the next two and a half years, Mr. Tuckfelt has fought diligently, both in and out of court, for me. He has told me hard truths with honesty and compassion, and calmed my fears during the toughest parts of my divorce trial. He always returns calls or emails personally, as soon as he is able. He always comports himself with professionalism and his respect and knowledge of the law is apparent. I have, on many, occasions recommended Mr. Tuckfelt to those who need his expertise and I don't hesitate to do so now.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
