BEST ATTORNEY EVER

I hired Jozefa Jackson as my attorney in our custody battle. She worked so hard on our case. When she went into the court room she was completely prepared and ready for everything. The best part of working with her she was honest, never given false hope, and never asking us to twist the truth like ot...her attorneys we had spoken to. She is very knowledgeable with the law and practice. She knows how to help make a bad situation bearable for not only myself and husband but for my young children. She made it possible to keep my children safe. I could never thank her enough. If you are looking for someone that will work their hardest and make your case as important as their own, she is the attorney for you. You'd be lucky to have her on your side!

can't say how great she is enough

Jozefa is an amazing lawyer! She listens, guides, and really fights for you and your child. She makes you feel like you are the only client she has. We would not be where we are (and it is an amazing place!) without her. We owe her more then words can express.

Horrible lawyer

I hired jozefa with only 8 weeks till my custody hearing so time was an issue.She started to prepared a petition to file an then she disappeared for 9 days.She came back an we explained to her how important communication was an she promised it wouldn't happen again but the very next week again no ans...wer call or emails.By this time we are 5 weeks to my hearing an again same excuses.long story short I had 23 days to trial no petition like she promised an she completely has not returned an emails or telephone calls.I was left high an dry waiting on this hearing for 4 years no only without any idea what's going on but no money cause we exhausted all our options to pay her a flat fee.It was one of the most stressful an horrible experience I have been threw.

The facts are quite different than stated in your review. That being said, I am very happy that you prevailed and now have primary custody of your child. Warm wishes for a wonderful future. You, your daughter and your entire family deserve all the best. Jozefa

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
