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.

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.

"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."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"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."
