I guess my expectations are "unreasonable" too
I hired Jessica for a child custody case and just about never saw my children again because of her incompetence. At times, it seemed she was working against us. Ever time the social worker would pull a just before court report out of his hat, she would tell us, he can do that. Well no he can't. Any ...
Wade, I have looked through my records and I reviewed several Minnesota Statutes, or laws, so I can best address your concerns. I represented your wife and for a few months in 2011 in a CHIPS, or Child In Need of Protection or Services, case. Your juvenile protection case came to a point where I withdrew as your attorney and your wife and you were then court appointed new attorneys who represented the two of you until the completion of the case. In looking at MNCIS, the website for the Minnesota court system, I do not see a record for any custody or parenting time case under your name. Perhaps your custody or parenting time case was resolved without the need of Motion hearings or a court trial. I welcome your attorneys or you to contact me so I can understand which Statutes or court Rules you believe I did not follow or understand. We can certainly look at the court file, court transcripts and court Orders to see what your attorneys and you believe was not done properly. Going through this process would help address your concerns so we both understand the other’s perspective. Hopefully it gives you some closure.

5 Stars!
I have had the pleasure of having Jessica as my divorce attorney through a long, emotional and messy divorce. With Jessica, as well as her paralegal Mary, I have always felt equally comfortable when I needed to sob my heart out, as well as when I needed to ask the serious questions. Jessica is extre...

Jessica did an amazing job for me. From the initial meeting to the final decision. She was right there for me. Her knowledge of the law was incredible, taking a very difficult case and turning it into a success for me. I would highly recommend Jessica.
"Jessica is one of the few "Go To" lawyers in Northern Minnesota. As a Southern MN lawyer I know they do things differently up there and you need an expert like Jessica on your Family Law case. I fully endorse her!"
