Fantastic

I’ve used her services for quite a while and, let me say, quite clearly, that hiring her was one of the best choices I’ve ever made. She repeatedly had prompt and specific answers for me, immediately notified me of court dates and case progress, came early to court to sign us up ahead of the line, an...d was always available by phone or email. She was impressively informed and knowledgeable about uncommon, potential future circumstances that needed to be addressed, and she promptly brought them to my attention. When it finally came time for court, she definitely knew her stuff, and it showed - we won hands down! Her prices were fair, too! Overall, she does a fantastic job!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Jessica is the best! We had a case together were I was the opposing counsel on a very messy divorce. Not only was she professional at all times, she was knowledgable, punctual, and courteous. A lot of lawyers would have been frustrated but she ALWAYS remained calm under pressure. She is a remarkable Family Law Attorney."

Divorce and separation lawyer | Jan 14

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Jessica was an opposing counsel on a case. She aggressively advocated on behalf of her client and was a formidable opponent. She was always professional despite our client's differences. I have since consulted with her on other matters because of her knowledge and expertise in the family law arena. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking an experienced and aggressive attorney."

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.
