Terrible

Save your money and represent yourself or hire any other attorney. The law firm is garbage. Would give a negative star review if possible.

Great experience

I originally consulted with Jill, and immediately I knew she was the one. She was very professional and educated. She did everything she thought was best for specific case. She treated my case as of it was special instead of “just another case”. I would definitely recommend.

Divorce

Jill was an awesome advocate through my whole divorce process. She explained every detail and really fought for what I wanted out the divorce and got my ex and his lawyer to settle out of court. She has also helped me with any question I have had after the decree was final.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
