The Best Lawyer and Firm that will support you every step of the way.
Getting a divorce is full of difficult, emotional decisions. Jessica and the team at at the McKeon Law Firm helped guide me through the hard decisions that come from a difficult divorce. Jessica was always on top what was happening in my case, always willing to talk through all of the details and adept at helping me remove the emotion from my decisions so that I could make good choices for me and my kids future. Jessica is smart, capable, patient, efficient, detail oriented and organized and I knew I was in great hands from our first meeting. I am so grateful that I hired her as my attorney. It was the best decision I could have made.

Difficult Divorce
Jessica and everyone at the McKeon Law Firm did a great job in handling my divorce. My ex was very difficult, and Jessica handled everything in a very professional manner. She explained everything to me clearly, communicated with me and with the other party in an appropriate and timely manner, and made getting divorced about as painless as it could be made. I always understood what was going on and I got the outcome I was led to expect. I was very satisfied her representation.

I hired Attorney Jessica to help with my divorce. Jessica was available all the time for answering my questions. Jessica is a humble person, and I felt very comfortable with her. I was lucky to have her to represent in my divorce process. I will say that she the best attorney in the region. Jessica, thank you!

Below Mediocre
I spent several thousand dollars with Jessica before realizing I got very little value out of the engagement and canceled my contract with their firm. All I got was standard paperwork. I cannot even imagine her working with an opposing attorney – she is very weak. I didn’t wait to find out if she can drive my case to closing and I stopped throwing good money after bad. She never really took the time to understand the nuances of my case and she asked very few questions (other than the standard). I had to do a lot of research and ask a lot of questions. There is no attorney that can guarantee results but my other attorney helped me understand the options and allowed me to make informed decisions based on common practice and results from previous cases. I cannot judge Jessica’s experience but if she does have a lot of court experience, she definitely did not use it with me. Yes, she can draft papers for you. But don’t expect anything else.
