Jessica Marie Jaramillo-Moreno

Do not hire, no response, money hungry and not a good attorney. Here is the grievance I filed: Matters Paid and Not Served: You were retained and paid for legal services in the following matters: 1. Divorce Representation – Paid in full. No petition filed, no action taken, and no communication o...r updates provided. 2. Eviction Case Representation – Paid for full representation. Matter was handled negligently and unprofessionally, resulting in avoidable harm and losses. 3. Felony Criminal Defense (Harris County) – Paid in full. No action taken, no motions filed, no appearances made, and no legal guidance provided. Violations and Ethical Breaches: Your failure to perform the contracted services and your lack of communication and diligence constitute violations of the following legal and ethical duties: • TDRPC Rule 1.01 (Competent and Diligent Representation) – You failed to carry out the legal representation with competence or diligence. • TDRPC Rule 1.03 (Communication) – You failed to keep me reasonably informed about the status of my matters. • TDRPC Rule 1.04 (Fees) – You failed to provide a basis for the fees charged and have not provided an itemized statement as required. • TDRPC Rule 8.04(a)(3) – You engaged in conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation by accepting payment and failing to perform any meaningful legal services. In addition, under Texas ethics law and common law fiduciary duties, an attorney must account for all funds received from a client and may only retain funds for services actually rendered. Failure to do so may constitute fee forfeiture, breach of fiduciary duty, and may also rise to the level of legal malpractice.

Her interest in you and your case is based on how valuable you are money wise. As many have stated. She is unresponsive and unreliable. So is her assistant. She can have her assistant send me an invoice but can't respond to MULTIPLE CALLS, TXT or EMAILS. When I stated she would not get the partial... payment as agreed until she provided better service, her assistant immediately txt me back threatening lo withdraw and now she has left me in the process of my divorce because we missed 1 payment. Also, side note. If you call from random number she doesn't have saved, she'll answer because you might be a potential client !!

**Horrible Experience with Attorney Jessica Marie Moreno** We trusted Jessica Marie Moreno with our case and gave her **$9,000**—the only money we had to defend ourselves. After reading her reviews, which accurately describe her behavior, we hoped for the best. Unfortunately, our experie...nce was exactly as others have described: - **Horrible Communication**: Jessica rarely responded to our calls or messages. Her communication skills are nonexistent, and she came across as arrogant and dismissive. - **No Consultation**: We never even sat down to discuss our case with her. She was always "too busy" and never made time for us. - **Minimal Interaction**: The only time we spoke to her was a single phone call that lasted less than two minutes. - **Financial Exploitation**: After we decided to move to another attorney, Jessica refunded only **$1,600** of the $9,000 we paid her. This left us with no money to hire another attorney, leaving us defenseless in our case. It’s unbelievable how someone could treat clients this way. We trusted her, and she took advantage of us. Her Yelp reviews describe her perfectly, and many of them seem fake. We will be filing a complaint with the bar association and hope to resolve this matter. **Do not use this attorney.** She should not be practicing law. Save yourself the heartache and find someone who actually cares about their clients. ---
