The best of the best

Jerry was absolutely amazing and I would highly recommend him! He told me exactly what to expect through the process, and didn’t necessarily tell me what I wanted to hear but told me honest advice and advised me of the best possible resolution. He’s quick to respond and is great at what he does. He h...elped me settle and win with my divorce/child custody/ & child support.

I DEFINITELY recommend Mr. Hoffer

I can't even begin to describe how unbelievably pleased I was with Mr. Hoffer and his staff, too. He's seriously by far the BEST attorney that I could've EVER asked for. First off, I loved the amazing communication that was so fast and informative at any given moment. You are able to communicate wit...h him and his staff through a secure website that even has an app in the AppStore for your phone! Therefore, the communication was so fast and CONVENIENT. He would upload all my documents so I would have them as soon as possible. Any drafts or anything that he sent out to my ex was uploaded for me to see for myself. I could even see where my ex signed for the certified mail that he got served with (divorce and parenting plan). Therefore, I never felt like I was out of the loop. After retaining him, he had a purposed complaint for divorce and purposed parenting plan THAT evening! It was always so reassuring to know I had an attorney that cared about my case and about what was best for me. He always knew the right way to go about something and always knew what to do. My case was uncontested but could have easily gone contested, and I honestly believe how Mr. Hoffer handled it, helped keep it uncontested and from getting nasty. In simple words, he didnt play around with what he sent to the defendant (my ex) and made his points very clear and what would/could happen if my ex did not provide the necessary information. He is very straight forward and gets down to business. My ex eventually got to a point where he just acted like this whole thing did not exist and would NOT sign anything or provide any income information!! Mr. Hoffer of course handled this perfectly and filed a Motion for Default, which was approved with no problem. He represented me in court so seamlessly - because of all his preparation and he just knew the right words to say about how the defendant left me and abandoned both me and my child with NO financial support. I could not have been more thankful with how he got the point across. It did not take long at all in court. It was BEYOND impressive!!! He is so loyal. He was so prepared, such a necessary quality. I first went to him because I had heard so many good things first hand from people I actually know. This man truly knows his stuff!! He took such good care of my case no matter how much I needed things tweaked or anything - my desires were so important to him. I never felt like I was pestering him. When you are going through this hard time in your life, its so important to have confidence in your attorney and that is definitely what you have with him. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE know that Mr. Hoffer is the one to trust with your case!!! There's NO DOUBT about it!

Satisfied Client

I hired Jerry Hoffer to handle my custody case with my daughter. I was informed of what to expect and what the outcome could possibly be from the very beginning. I felt the atmosphere at his office was always professional, and at the same time extremely personal. Everyone at the office knew who I was... and what was going on with the case at all times. I am extremely satisfied with the results I recieved, and have recommended Jerry Hoffer to several friends in need of a divorce or family law attorney. Each case is different, and I feel I came out better with the Mr. Hoffer as my attorney than I would have with anyone else. I was able to recieve more parenting time with my daughter, and child support was set at an affordable rate. I have a lot of faith and trust in the capapbilities of Mr. Hoffer and everyone at his office.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I wholeheartedly endorse this lawyer. I have worked opposite Jerry on numerous divorce and custody cases through the years Jerry is a very strong advocate for his clients and enjoys the respect and admiration of the legal community and local judges. Jerry is excellent at settling cases to spare his clients the heartache of a trial if it can be worked out. However, if it is a case that must be tried, he fights as hard as any attorney I have seen. He has the years under his belt to handle any domestic case. He's a great guy and great lawyer. If you chooose him you will not be disappointed."
