All family law issues are emotionally difficult and divorce is certainly no exception. I guide my clients through their divorce with compassion and experience, addressing all issues of real property, personal property, debts, and support.

With my legal experience and my deep appreciation for the individualized nature of every family's custody and parenting time case, I actively assist my clients in creating an appropriate schedule and effective co-parenting relationship with their ex.

Alimony, or spousal support, can be a contentious dispute between parties. Working with an attorney who deeply understands your financial situation is key in pursuing or defending alimony.

Child Support is an important piece in any custody matter. Ensuring both parties are financially responsible for their child helps maximize the resources available for that child's development.

Excellent Divorce Lawyer

During an obviously difficult time for myself and family I hired Jackie to handle the proceedings of my divorce. She was extreamly helpful with presenting all of my options and taking time to talk or email often the same day. Her vast experience with FOC was important for me securing a fair and balan...ced settlement. I would highly recommend Jackie for anything regarding Divorce or Child Custody. I’m very pleased with the outcome considering the circumstances.

Patient, confident, awesome to work with, would re-hire and definitely recommend

Dear Jackie - Words cannot describe how grateful I am to you for taking my case. In all honestly, I was at my very last breath…the edge of the cliff…the end of the rope. I had multiple consultations before meeting you, as my case is quite the unique one, I needed to choose my representative caref...ully. When I finally came to discovery you, I was immediately in absolute relief. You listened to my story, and you responded with the upmost and ultimate confidence. Exactly what I needed and exactly what I was looking for. You are a blessing… a breath of much needed fresh air! My circumstances require constant special attention, sometimes immediately and I require someone who will listen to me, listen to my questions and provide answers in words I can actually understand. Jackie you are that someone. Along with that, you offer critical and priceless information and more importantly what matters most- putting the children involved first. 
 
More than once, you went the extra mile and was always there for me above and beyond our client/lawyer relationship. There were times where I wanted to ‘fight back’ and you brought me back to Earth and told me it’s not worth it, you’d love the money but it’s just not worth it. Times where I’d call and cry with pain and anxiety, and you made me see the positive side of things, tell me how we’re going to get through this together, and make me smile. This!! This means so much. It is my pleasure to recommend you Jackie, as a very qualified attorney who can handle any unique situation. I may not be the ‘most profitable client’ of yours, or well... maybe I am!? Haha! But I will confidently tell you this… I am your ‘most grateful client’ and that comes from my whole heart.

Great experience

I used Jackie Dupler for recent divorce proceedings. She was very responsive, easy to talk to, and gave really good advice (saving me from myself on one particular issue). I would definitely recommend her to anyone.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
