Jozefa Kristina Jackson

Jozefa directed me in how to navigate through challenging situations where children are being used as means of retaliation for divorce. She is knowledgeable, involved, a strong advocate for me and my children. Ms. Jackson truly understands the situation and is both compassionate and strong in kee...ping my focus on workable outcomes.

I had spoken to a few lawyers prior to hiring Ms Jackson, her consultation was the first one that made me feel heard and understood; like she truly saw the big and small picture. I felt like an actual person instead of another client. Thanks to her the court process was simple and even my minor stre...ss points were given attention and care through the whole process. I believe she specializes in custody, but she handled my whole divorce and put down all the mischaracterized accusations thrown my way. I have a fair and equitable post divorce and suffered no serious damages to credit or other typical post divorce losses. I got the 50/50 custody arrangement I petitioned for and see my child often, and have equal authority towards her well being. I would hire Jozefa again in a heart beat, and truly believe that if I hired anyone else I would not have been successful in defending myself.

Jozefa knows what she’s doing and does it to the best of her ability, always with the children in mind. I went though a very nasty divorce and was terrified of losing custody of my children. I had been to 2 other lawyers before finding Jozefa and felt that neither of them listened to me, gave my case... the energy and focus it needed, and both seemed more interested in billing me for every little thing than in actually helping me. One of them was charging me for every phone call I made to the receptionist asking to leave another message because my lawyer hadn’t gotten back to me yet! With them “representing” me, my ex managed to intentionally lose his job which meant less support forcing me (stay-at-home mom) to go back to work, convinced the court he should be taking care of the children while I worked instead of daycare, then used the fact that he was caring for them all day every day to get his support lowered even more. Had I not found Jozefa when I did I would have soon been paying my ex and he would have had primary custody of my children. Jozefa is fair with her billing and worth every penny. She’ll listen, she’ll guide you, she’ll fight for you, and she’ll do her very best to win for you but most importantly, she’ll do what’s right for the children. I’m happy to call her my attorney and proud to call her my friend.

Jozefa saved my home. After having another lawyer for 3years, I was about to loose my home through divorce. Within 9 months of hiring her my divorce settled and I still have my home. She stepped up and made things happen. She called him on his lies and held him accountable for his statements that had... no proof. She has a heart for the mistreated. She will leave no stone unturned to get you justice. I am so grateful I hired her. It was a life saving decision.

I found Jozefa after working previously with a couple lawyers. She is someone whom quickly became a trusted go-to for legal counsel/advice inside and outside of the courtroom. I valued her opinion on if an issue even warranted court. She is a lawyer that will keep you out of the courtroom if and when... possible if that’s your desire. That is a rare find for many lawyers today. I appreciated her honesty, as she is one who will tell you like it is without the fluff. She is hardworking, dependable, and honest. I truly appreciated her taking time to sit down and lay out all the positives and not so fun realities of divorce and custody. I also never had to wonder what to expect, as she’s great at covering all the possible outcomes if facing court. She is a lawyer who will go to bat for your case and speaks up when you may not feel you are able to. I have recommended her to friends and co-workers in need of services in the Lancaster area on more than one occasion.
