Happy with Jackie..

I feel lucky to have had Jacqueline as my attorney. My case was extremely stressful, and I felt helpless before her. She put me at ease once she started working with me. Jacqueline promptly answered any questions I might have. She worked hard making sure all the paperwork needed for this case was ava...ilable and ready. Especially at the circumstances we are facing. We constantly exchanged calls and emails on making sure things are going as planned, and this made the devorce experience better that it was. She is great with communicating via email or phone calls. I feel like she was there for me and without Jacqueline I could not make this journey. In addition, she is very professional and very well-informed of her family law. Jackie was the greatest attorney I ever met, and I would recommend to anyone looking for a friendly attorney. Hani.

Wonderful & professional attorney.

Jackie was so very supportive and knowledgeable throughout my divorce process. She employed excellent communicate skills to me and the ex's attorney, going to bat for me each and every time. I cannot say enough about her!

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.
