Best Divorce Attorney

I had some lingering issues that were not completed by my original attorney. Secondly another issue came about between myself and my ex. I was looking for a new divorce lawyer and came upon Jeff Marshall. After reading reviews and looking at his credentials I gave him a call and we met. I hired him a...nd it was the best decision I could have made. He is clear, concise and keeps you well informed on what he is doing. He is also easy to get a hold of. Another thing is that he quickly got started on my case. He was able to rectify both the lingering situation as well as the new situation for me. Both situations turned out in my favor. If you’re looking for a quality divorce lawyer I would highly recommend Jeffery Marshall you will not be disappointed!

Quality Legal Advice

Jeff and team provided exceptional legal guidance through my difficult situation. I could not have resolved this situation without their help. Divorce with a child is extremely difficult, but Jeff and team took the time to help me understand the legal details and gain a better understanding of how ...move on with my life, enabling me to continue to play a significant role in my child's life.

I highly recommend Jeff. Him and his staff are awesome!

I found myself in a position of impending separation/divorce. My situation involved marital misconduct in another country(a very difficult to prove situation), did my due diligence; read reviews and went to visit 5 different attorneys. I chose Jeff because he gave me a very knowledgeable and more imp...ortantly gave me a honest and accurate assessment of my situation(He didn't say what I wanted to hear he said what I NEEDED to hear). His advice and preparation right from the beginning was what made the big difference. He made a plan and stuck with that plan throughout the process and at the same time paid special attention to my interests and protected me. At times I would lose sight, (divorce is emotional and complicated), but Jeff and his staff always balanced me out and were patient in helping me understand the process. In the end we went to mediation and all the advice and preparation is what made the big difference. My case outcome was much better than the original offer I made to my ex spouse(before I had a lawyer) and giving credit where credit is due; Jeff's knowledge to execution is what made the difference. I must add Jeff made me look past my anger and really had the best interests of me and my children in mind; which in the end that is what really matters. When it ultimately comes down to it separation/divorce is difficult in the moment; but the outcome is forever. I am happy with my outcome and Thank Jeff with his knowledge, planning and execution. I really feel like I got my money's worth and am happy with my outcome. I highly recommend Jeff and his assistant JP. Thank You
