An amazing attorney
I hired Susan Jacobsen to represent me in a business matter, and could not be more pleased with the process and the outcome. She is kind and empathetic, a great advocate and an excellent attorney. I was afraid this matter would drag on indefinitely, but Susan was able to negotiate a settlement that...

Excellent Excellent Excellent
Susan Jacobsen is one of the best divorce lawyers. She explains the whole process of the divorce and walks you through every facet. She is very organized and clearly explains all costs. She is quick to respond and very knowledgeable. One of the best decisions I ever made was hiring her to repres...

Money pit
Susan was recommended to me by another lawyer. After dragging a fairly simple case on for a year the judge finally said enough is enough. Appointed more people to get involved in my case. In the end she told me give my ex whatever she wants so that this could be over. So after wasting thousands upon ...
I am very sorry, but I cannot place you as a client. I do not believe that I actually represented you. I am confused when you say that "the judge finally said enough is enough. Appointed more people to get involved." In a dissolution action, the only other parties to be appointed are guardian ad litems (except in special cases where third parties can be impleaded, such as when there are allegations that the husband is not the father of a child of the marriage, if there is a business entity that is marital property, etc.). A court will appoint a guardian ad litem (a "GAL") either on its own motion or the motion of a party. GALs are automatically appointed when there are allegations of abuse and/or neglect (this is required by law). GALs can also be appointed in highly contested custody matter. Further, I also do not know what you mean when you state that "in the state of Missouri if there is a dispute about what is clearly written in the divorce papers" that you would need to "do it all over again." There actually cannot be an dispute over what is "clearly written" in a divorce decree. If the language is clear, that is the language that would govern. If a party does not like the language, then they would need to move to modify the language. However, the only portions of a dissolution decree that can be modified are provisions regarding child custody, child support, and maintenance (so long as the maintenance specifically states that it is modifiable). I am sorry if you feel that you had a poor experience, but I do not believe that I was part of this case.

I will never call anyone else
I was referred to Susan by another attorney I highly trust. After working with her I have never been so satisfied. Susan went the extra mile over and over for me in my custody case. She was always honest and caring. Susan truly cared for me during my case. She worked non stop to make sure I was happy...

I am an attorney and Susan is my attorney.
I am a litigation attorney who was in need of representation in a family law matter against my ex-wife. Susan provided excellent representation at a reasonable cost. She does not waste time and gets to the heart of the issues and moves the case along to a prompt resolution.
"I endorse this lawyer. I've known Susan for some time, and have been the opposing attorney on a case with her. She's easy to work with, but is also an excellent advocate who always keeps her client's best interests in mind. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her services to anyone."
"I endorse this lawyer. Susan is very knowledgeable in family law and several other practice areas. She works well and diligently with her clients to achieve a favorable outcome."
