Heather Lavery

So thankful for Jazmin! With all my silly questions, she never made me feel that they were unimportant! She was very professional and answered all my questions in detail. She got me through some very rough times through my divorce. Very empathetic and professional! I couldn’t thank her enough! I wou...ld recommend her to the highest extent!

Strong advocate

Jazmin was an honest and strong advocate in my divorce and child custody case. She understands the legal system and stands up for what is fair and reasonable. Her patience, attention to detail, and willingness to listen to what I endured with my ex-husband played a key role in building our case. I... would greatly recommend her to anybody going through a divorce/custody battle.

Experience

My experience with Jazmin was an amazing one. She worked very hard on my case and was able to help me get the most important aspects of my case. She kept me well informed and answered all of my questions. She was upfront about my chances and what may be difficult to achieve. She showed she cared not ...only about my case but about me as a person which I appreciated. She is an amazing attorney that takes her cases personally. I am so grateful for all of her help and recommend her for anyone who needs help.

Amazing

Jazmin is an AMAZING attorney. She is passionate, empathetic, and extremely professional. My girlfriend hired her for child custody against her extremely abusive ex and she absolutely went above and beyond. She remembered every detail my girlfriend gave her and did a wicked cross examination on him. ...I would recommend her over any attorney in the QC Area.

Astounding

Jazmin has been the biggest blessing in my life! I knew from reading outstanding reviews online and from what I've heard from word of mouth from her other clients that referred me to her, that she was the one I needed to help me with my case. I was dealing with a narcissistic abuser and was trying to... ensure I could have primary custody and sole decision making for my daughter. Jazmin went above and beyond to make sure that I felt heard. She went above and beyond to know my case like the back of her hand. She and her staff were always great to work with and so engaged with helping me. They made the long process much less terrifying and supported me the whole way through. They were always easy to contact to get answers right away and in court Jazmin was VERY organized! Jazmin knows the law inside and out, and she makes sure she's heard. Her cross examination had me speechless. Together, we ensured I received basically everything I had requested. I cannot thank her and her staff enough for the work they put into my case and the care they showed for myself and my daughter. If you want someone who is genuine and human, Jazmin is absolutely the right choice.
