I hired this attorney and can state that my own experience with Jacqueline Bourassa was an exceptional one. She is fair, timely and is on top of changes in Florida laws that impact divorce.
She is a rarity in the legal profession, as she is a caring professional and comes across through various meetings and numerous telephone calls that she truly enjoys her work and helping people solve legal issues. A consummate professional. It is hard to find someone of her caliber in South Florida.
We cannot recommend hiring Jacqueline enough. We had been hitting walls for almost 2 years trying to settle a dispute over a mortgage with an ex and we thought we were out of options. Within literally hours of hiring Jacqueline she had put us at ease and helped make our dreams reality. She was always available for calls to explain the latest statuses and made sure we were always taken care of. We wouldn’t be where we were without her and we cannot thank her enough.

A Calm, Classy, and Responsive Attorney That Get's the Job Done!
I was referred to Ms. Bourassa recently to handle my divorce. She stated at our first meeting she would handle the case and get it done the way I asked. She also is extremely responsive and actually returns phone calls. While at time I got excited and vented my needs during the progress of this case, Ms Bourassa remained calm advising me to to the same. She also advised me to simply let most of my demands lay, and get on with my life. Good advice, which I eventually followed. Don't let Jaquiline's soft voice and calm demeanor fool you, chances are if you follow her advice your case will resolve itself quickly and in the manner you wanted, mine did.

Hard-working, ethical and accessible!
I was a client of Jacqueline's on two separate matters. and I am a lawyer myself. One challenge for any lawyer is meeting the client's expectations about returning calls and moving matters forward quickly. Jacqueline exceeded my expectations. She was very accessible and diligent. More importantly, she was effective. I was and remain very impressed with Jacqueline. I highly recommend.

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY - HIRE HER
Jacqueline Bourassa is an excellent attorney. I have recommended her to anyone who asks. She got me through my divorce and gave me advice that was both tough-minded and practical. She is very knowledgeable about the law and is always very responsive. She fought when she had to and negotiated when the situation called for it. She was able to get me what I wanted at a reasonable price.

Unbelieveable Attorney
I had been looking to find a family law attorney to bounce ideas off of and I recently came across Jacqueline. After meeting with her on multiple occasions, I had come to realize that she is the real deal and has irreplaceable qualities that you only wish you could find in an attorney. She is incredibly knowledgeable in the field of family law and cares more about her clients than almost anyone that I know. Her warmth is contagious and I want to let anyone reading this know that she is a premier attorney.

"I endorse this lawyer.
I know Attorney Bourassa for 20 years and in different capacities. She is honest, ethical and hard woking. She gives thought to her cases and has an excellent grasp of the law. She will fight when necessary, however, always negotiates to settle her cases when possible. I highly recommend her."

"I endorse Jacqueline Bourassa. Jacqueline has demonstrated, time and time again, her effectiveness, professionalism and her absolute purity in caring for and diligently representing the interests of her clients. Jacqueline puts the client first. She is among the most empathetic and caring lawyers I know. She gets fired up and cares deeply about accomplishing the goals of her clients. I have seen it first hand. In one case, Jacqueline helped a client with complicated assets, a recent ex-wife, a new wife in a foreign country and never lost her stride even when he seemed to be acting against his own interests. She kept plugging away, attempting to keep him on course. My experiences with Jacqueline have been very positive. I think highly of Jacqueline and I endorse her capability as a very capable Family Law Attorney."

"Jacqueline is a very knowledgeable, competent, and professional attorney. I have had a number of cases with her now and find her a worthy opponent and peer. Good attorneys fight when they need to and discuss when they need to. This is how a lawyer does a client justice."
