Attorney Jacquelyn D. Tomlinson is a great lawyer for Men.
Attorney Tomlinson is the best lawyer for men. Period. My case was a curious one. The case lasted 5 years. It should have been over in 1.5 years at the most. The judge was found to be unfit for her job and was remove from the bench, part of the reason was letting my case drag on for so long. Att...

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY
I do not recommend this firm at all. They take your retainer and never return calls but bill you every time you email or call. They use the two attorneys to make your retainer go quickly. It is a money pit here with no help!!!

Replied last March 10, 2021Pursuant to the Alabama Rules of Ethics, I am prohibited from specifically responding with any identifying details of someone's case. However, because this review appears to be anonymous, I will respond as follows: Recently, a client wanted our firm to flout HIPAA regulations, which we were not willing to do. Further, our billing systems sends invoices every two weeks, which shows when a client checks them. Our retainer balance should come as no surprise to anyone who checks their MyCase system regularly. In fact, we frequently remind clients that they are being charged on a hourly basis, which does, as with any other lawyer's fees, include emails and phone calls. If you are reading this review, please know that if you want a firm willing to violate the law on behalf of your case, we are not the firm for you.

Don’t believe the reviews written...she doesn’t care!
If you want to throw money away then she’s the right attorney for you! I’ve been around a lot of attorneys and I can say honestly say she doesn’t have the work ethics needed to help others.
