Wish I had found her years ago

After a divorce that took years and post divorce issues that seemed to go on forever, I had definitely dealt with my fair share of attorneys. But after meeting Mrs. Amanda Jacobson I knew she was different. Not just driven by fees or hourly rates but driven by fair justice and the true desire to cut ...through the BS and end my legal drama once and for all. Amanda Jacobson will work extremely hard for your case, this was most evident to me the weekend evening she texted me concerning my case. I finally felt I had someone in my corner. Someone to fight for what was right. All warm fuzzies aside, Amanda Jacobson is also extremely well versed in the law and a power house in the courtroom. I always felt I had the biggest, baddest, smartest dog in the fight. It is very apparent that not only do the opposing attorneys respect (and maybe fear) her, but so do the judges. I wish I had found her years ago! Highly, Highly recommend attorney Amanda Jacobson.

Awesome

Amanda Jacobson represented my son in 2012... She was professional, sincere, knowledgeable, and fierce. If it wasn't for her I wouldn't have been able to see or hug my son for years. I extremely recommend her office. Thank you Ms. Jacobson

Highly Recommend

I had the pleasure of retaining Ms. Jacobson to handle the most important matter to me, a custody case involving my daughter. She was recommended to me by another attorney (I'm an attorney, but chose not to handle the matter myself due to the emotional involvement and because family law is not my fi...eld of expertise). Having her as my legal advocate was the best decision I've made in this regard. Her knowledge of the law in relationship to how it would apply to the specific facts of my case made me comfortable. Often the lack of communication with clients has been the biggest criticism of my peers. No such issue with Ms. Jacobson. Our regular scheduled meetings to discuss the progress of my case assured me my case was equally important to her and she was on top of it. While we all seek to avoid trial, my case did however go to trial. If ever you need a competent advocate, it is at trial. As a trial attorney myself, I am very aware that a case is won or lost based on preparation. Ms. Jacobson was very prepared for our trial and it showed. Accordingly, should a situation arise that someone finds themselves in need of a family law attorney, I would recommend Ms. Jacobson (I actually have already referred others to her following the handling of my case).

A Great Choice

Amanda was hired because I needed someone who really knew what they were doing. She did her job as promised. I could not have asked for anyone better. The money was hard to give up but in the end worth every penny. She thought ahead to make sure we had all areas covered, just in case. Thanks Amanda

All around great experience!

I actually used Amanda for a criminal case (DUI) and my divorce. She was always there for me, answering all my questions, even after hours. She was very confident in the courtrooms and the judges really respected her. I got a great result in both cases. I strongly recommend her for criminal and famil...y cases.
