Amanda is the everything your lawyer should be.

Amanda is everything your lawyer should be. I hired Amanda after trying to save money on a cheaper lawyer that cost me thousands more than Amanda ever did - and only ever got me heartache. Amanda is a compassionate shark of an attorney that made sure my child and her interests were kept at the center... of every negotiation without deviation. She is brilliant and very well prepared. She clearly knows what she is doing! I immediately felt like Amanda was the clear master of her field. She dominated mediation in the kindest way possible. She got me a schedule and support order that my friends in the same situation couldn’t believe. I spent 6 years trying to get my ex to move away from wanting only 50/50 and she got him to do it in 4 hours of mediation. She’s brilliant. Best of all she got me Through it with my pride and dignity. From one mother to another - don’t waste your time elsewhere.

A Family Lawyer with Compassion

Amanda has helped me with 2 issues post divorce. Amanda is truly a compassionate person. She is very wise and knows the law very well. She is a great listener and advisor. Amanda has your best interests at heart. You can count on her to do her best for you. She is well respected among attorneys..., mediators and judges. You can count on Amanda to work her hardest to help you achieve the best possible outcome. After working with several other attorneys, I am so grateful I met Amanda. She will truly fight for you and be your best advocate. I highly recommend Amanda.

Fabulous Attorney!

I should have written this review for Amanda a while ago but it's difficult to put into words how valuable she was to me during my divorce process. I felt at ease with Amanda from the moment I met her and I'm thankful I hired her to represent me. Amanda is adept at reading people and knows exactly ...when it is time to be amiable and when it is time to be unrelenting. During the course of my case, it became clear not only is she an amazing attorney but she has highly productive relationships with other attorneys and mediators, which is extremely helpful in getting the whole process done quickly and as painlessly as possible. Aside from being a highly skilled attorney, she is honest and unbelievably kind and patient. Hopefully, I'll never need to hire a family attorney again, but if I do, Amanda will be my first call.

Good divorce attorney

Amanda handled my divorce in a professional, timely manner. She explained the process throughly. She was patient when needed and aggressive when required.

Highly recommend Amanda

I have nothing to say but positive things about my experience with Amanda Jacobson during my divorce. She guided me through a difficult divorce and always made me feel I was her priority. Amanda's team pulled off a near miracle during mediation. Her skills made the difference in keeping my divorce fr...om going to a trial. I highly recommend using Amanda if you need a top notch legal team.
