Patient and thorough!

Amanda Jacobson was a great lawyer for me! She let me take the time I needed to process this event, and was sure I got what I deserved. She never rushed me or made me feel like this had to be done in her time! When I was ready, she was there. Now it's done and everything turned out exactly as I wante...d!

Outstanding family lawyer

Amanda Jacobson and her staff are outstanding. She reviewed my case with me in detail outlining every possible outcome (good and bad). However she kept me very optimistic about having a favorable outcome. Amanda was very gracious and patient with the many questions I asked during the proceedings. Her... staff was courteous with each interaction. They were very responsive to phone calls, emails and conference scheduling. My case began as a simple mediation with no major issues. Then my ex refused to cooperate or respond to any offers. With Amanda in my corner, I hired a GAL and Parent coordinator which greatly impacted my overall outcome and negotiations. I would definitely contact Amanda if your going through a divorce especially if their are issues with child care. I would also highly recommend Amanda if you are looking for an attorney who is willing to take your case to trial. Not many attorneys want to go to trial.

Delightful woman and a pleasure to work with.

From the very first consult Amanda made me feel at ease with my very difficult divorce case. She is very honest and direct as well as a fantastic human being. She is so much different than the average attorney out there she wants to win your case not see how much of your bank account she can drain. S...he's an amazing attorney and in my opinion she saved my life and made sure I was able to start over. Highly recommend her !

Amanda is a Shark with heart

Looking for an attorney for a grueling divorce is stress enough. However, with Amanda, I had total trust and belief in her from day one. If you are looking for a Shark to be in your corner yet wholeheartedly so passionate about her clients and well being of the children, Amanda is the one for you. Hi...ghly educated and respected in her field, she is a powerful force in representing you. Her staff was amazing in follow up and not once did I worry. They were always available and diligently one step ahead. I received everything we sought for. This woman has the guts, heart and proven record of success for her clients. I've referred her 2 clients and will continue to do so faithfully. No one else comes close.

Elite Family Law attorney

Amanda is truly an expert in her field. Amanda represented me through an extremely difficult and arduous trial. There no doubt this trial was the hardest episode I've had to endure in my life. Amanda was there for me as a professional, a friend, and even offered emotional support when needed. I neve...r felt like "just another client" with Amanda. I sensed she truly cared and knew she was always my strongest advocate. Inside the Courtroom she was amazing. Yes, we did prevail at trial, but I never thought that was in question. Amanda was always prepared, articulate, and new exactly how to approach each unique legal situation which presented itself. I highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a strong Family Law attorney who is brilliant, persuasive, and just flat out knows the law. -Nancy, Altamonte Springs, FL
