The WORST ATTORNEY WHO IS SO IMMATURE and RUDE

He is immature, he is arrogant, rude, and a terrible person at heart. He will screw up your case very quickly and has no clue what he is doing. He is old and a geriatric that should not be practicing law.

Class Act!

Walter Jackowiec is a phenomenal lawyer. When I was introduced to him, he was courteous and supportive. He actively listened to the issues involved in my divorce. He was confident that he could win my case. Walt gave me hope, when I had none. He was extremely focused and knowledgeable. Walt explaine...d the process and all of the protocols that had to be followed. He developed strategies for my defense. I had complete trust in him from day one! He is an experienced communicator. Walt was well prepared for my trial. His line of questioning was outstanding. I was very impressed with his eloquent performance. Walt won the trial hands down! My ex and his legal team scrambled try to gain some ground, but Walt defeated them with ease.

Experience, Professionalism, Respect!

It is not often that you can refer to someone as an attorney and friend, Walt is both. At a time when your world has been turned upside down and you need someone looking out for your best interest's, it is reassuring to know that Walt has your back both personally and professionally. I cannot imagin...e having hired a more comprehensive, thorough, and professional attorney who has earned the respect of both the Judiciary and the Bar. I give him my highest recommendation!

Great Lawyer-Good Man

At a time when the world seemed upside down, Walter was firm and wise and most all . . . fair for all of us.

Avvo Rating

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.
