Traffic Court

Mrs. Jacobson has been representing me in traffic court since 2014 and she takes care of everything in a very timely manner no matter how many speeding tickets I get in every county. she has a very good attitude as well! Both attorneys stay in good communication by mail and in person, letting me kn...ow what's going to happen in court before we go in every time. They are flexible with payments making it easy for me to afford the costs of my stupidity.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Ms. Jacobson is a terrific legal advocate for her clients. I first worked with Ms. Jacobson when she was an assistant state's attorney in Winnebago County. Her experience working as a prosecutor gives her a huge leg up on most defense attorneys who do not have this experience. I highly endorse Ms. Jacobson."

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.
