Professional and skilled attorney

Jackie is a highly professional and skilled attorney. I was able to meet with her within a day of contacting her firm. She spent almost two hours discussing my case even prior to hiring her. She is very professional, empathetic, and non judgemental. She put my case together in an efficient manner and... gave me honest realistic options. She planned for every outcome and situation. Ultimately, she was able to get a dismissal for my case. I highly recommend her to anyone who is facing a difficult situation.

Excellent Lawyer

Jacquelyn Rokusek represented my case, over a year ago. Deciding whom is the most knowledgeable about the law and whom will know your case backwards and forwards is a difficult and overwhelming decision, during a stressful time. Ms. Rokusek was referred to me by a friend. The only review I had at th...at time was, "She is very professional." I met with her, and from day 1, I knew she had integrity, empathy, expertise and most importantly, honesty. She is the type of person that will hear you out, respond to ALL of your questions (small or big) promptly and never once made me feel like she was too busy. The one thing I respected the most about her was that she always was forward, direct and never gave me false hope. During a stressful time, this is what you need most in your legal representation. Ms. Rokusek knows the LAW and I would refer her to anyone that I know, and would use her again. If you are like I was, and a layman to the law, Jacqueline Rokusek will guide you all of the way and assure you, you are definitely in an EXPERT'S hands. Jamie

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.
