Highly Recommend
Jessica is simply AMAZING! I was at a loss with my case and I thought I had lost my kids. She took over my case and was able to get my kid back home! She guided me through step by step! Always follow-up with all my questions and was always prepared and ready in court. She is professional, intelligent, and organized! I highly recommend Jessica!

The best!
Jessica Rymut is an amazing attorney and I could not be happier with how much she did for me. I have a very special situation and she knew exactly what to do to protect me and get me the things that I am entitled to. Every staff member that I had any interaction with at the office was kind, professional and always knew how to guide me. If they couldn’t help me they would find out from someone else and promptly get back to me. The correspondence with Jessica is extremely fast. If you email her, she responds right away with answers. I always felt like my case was being handled and moved forward. There was never a time when I did not know what was going on because I was constantly kept up with all correspondence and given copies of all filings through email. Jessica is thorough, fast, kind, smart, and the office overall is very conscious of not wasting time or your money. Overall I would recommend her 10 out of 10! I’m so thankful for her. If God forbid I ever need her again, I would retain her in a heartbeat.

Fantastic Attorney
My child custody case was transferred to Jessica. I was extremely happy with her representation. She went above and beyond to make herself as available as possible to address all of my specific concerns. She took her time to explain the specific points that were cructial to my case. You can tell that this attorney truly cares about the outcome of her clients' matters and her billing is more than fair. I would highly recommend hiring Jessica.

Premarital Agreement Review
Jessica has been highly responsive throughout the process, which is critical given the timeline we are working towards. She set up clear expectations on the process and document review / editing cycles. I recommend Jessica for any Family Law related issues.

Estate Planning
Jessica is a pleasure to work with. She was knowledgeable in the areas we needed with regards to our estate plans. Jessica made us feel comfortable as we were a little nervous regarding her working with same-sex spouses. We highly recommend her and she is now our attorney should we need her for any other legal issues.

Will Preparation - a great experience
Jessica prepared our wills and power of attorneys for us. She was very thorough and patient with us, answering all our questions and explaining the entire process as we went along. We would not hesitate in hiring her again for other matters.

Quality Representation
Going through a divorce is very stressful and emotionally draining and I felt that Jessica was very compassionate and was always quick to respond to my emails (many emails,) I felt bad that I emailed her too much! I was also very happy that she was able to help me setup a payment plan, (even to suspend my payment for a few months) because I needed to find a place to live and didn't have the money at that time.
