Jessica is a star!

I will be forever grateful that I had Jessica Schneider representing me in a highly contentious and emotionally supercharged divorce, child custody case. Some may think powerhouse attorneys are expensive, but I'd say not having one will prove to be much more costly. What I found most impressive about... Jessica, beyond her legal expertise and strategic guidance which always exceeded even the highest expectations, is that she genuinely cared about me, my kids, our future. The eventual outcome of my case was nothing short of incredible. I simply couldn't be more pleased with the representation I received. It was clear I was working with the best in the business. When only the best will do, choose wisely. Jessica is a star!

Outstanding!!

Jessica, I've been remiss in not sending you this email thanking you for your efforts on our behalf. We successfully got the two children from their respective schools last Friday, without incident. I firmly believe that that would not have happened without your help and, for that, I sincerely than...k you! We are having a wonderful time with them. Thanks again for being so efficient, responsive and friendly. I can't tell you how refreshing that is! I am very glad that we were referred to Diggs & Sadler and that we connected with you!

Outstanding Attorney!

Jessica is an empathetic attorney and was right by my side every step of the process. She was very knowledgeable in various areas when it came to custody. I consulted with other attorneys before hiring her, and she actually listened to my concerns. I really enjoyed her soft, yet firm approach in d...ealing with my custody case.

  • 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.
