A knowledgeable BULLdog!!

I met Amanda from the overwhelming amount of recommendations from others going through a divorce. Amanda met with me for FREE, which most do not do. She worked with me dilligently to reach a dissolution of marriage with a very difficult spouse. I was also able to reach Amanda and she always answered ...all my questions. I also felt like she had my best interest at the forfront. She took my case personally and I did not feel like a number but a friend! She was an absolute bulldog when it came to opposing counsel. I recommend her if you need a no BS lawyer who knows her stuff and will be a bulldog in the court room!

Listen to her.... Trust her!!

When we were first referred to Amanda back 10 years ago, she didn’t tell us what we wanted to hear so we went with another attorney that DID tell us what we wanted to hear and then he proceeded to completely favor the other party and threw us under the bus. It was a very stressful and bad experience.... After that, we realized that Amanda told us the truth. It wasn’t what we wanted to hear, but it was the truth. If we had just listened to her, followed her guidance, and trusted her experience and knowledge, the outcome would've been positive vs negative. So, when my son needed an attorney a few years back, there was no thought or hesitation about it. I called Amanda and I put my complete trust in her, and it was amazing what she worked out for him. I can’t say enough good things about her. She’s real… she doesn’t sugarcoat…she doesn’t tell you what you WANT to hear… she tells you what you NEED to hear and she has your back. I hope I never need her services again, (although I will miss the friendship formed) but I will refer her any chance I get. She is a great person to work with and have in your corner. She has a lot of experience. She doesn’t make promises…. she just keeps it real and delivers.

divorce

I recently went thru the trials and tribulations of a divorce and consulted Amanda Jacobson for much needed input and advice prior to filing. From the beginning she was professional, sincere, honest, and most importantly caring. I hired Ms. Jacobson and together we went thru the process. My divorce w...as settled in mediation and I walked away very satisfied with the end result. If I ever need another lawyer (hopefully not) I will not hesitate to contact Ms. Jacobson. She had my best interest from beginning to end.

Divorce

Amanda was very professional to work with and provided great communication about the divorce process. I tried to handle my divorce personally and created many problems in the beginning including jeopardizing time sharing with my kids. She was able to correct my mistakes and guide the divorce procee...dings through mediation to its conclusion. I highly recommend Amanda. Thank you!

Divorce and Custody

I hired Ms. Jacobson as my divorce attorney. She is super sharp, professional and very good at her job. She Is upfront, fair and really knows her stuff. She helped me to feel secure in what I was doing, every step of the way. Bonus: Her paralegal is also beyond incredible. Highly recommend.
