DONT HIRE

Jessica took my case in Brazos county and did not at all do what she said she would. She constantly pushed dates back, only showed up in person to one hearing after being 2 hours late for going to the wrong court house in another county. I decided to go another direction and she promised me a refund ...that I still have not received years later after multiple attempts to reach her about it. Do not hire her.

Will never hire her again

I am very disappointed with how Jessica Adam's mediated my divorce. In my opinion, she didn't fight hard enough on my behalf. I was only given a small amount of "spousal support" and for not more than a year. I did not work at the time and have not found anything that will pay my bills and actually l...eave me a little money for emergencies. I was married for over 21 years and yet, did not receive any of my husband's pension or annuities. I will not be covered on his health insurance nor continue life insurance unless I pay for my own. I don't make enough money from him to pay all the bills, groceries, insurance on my truck, maintenance on my truck or my 30+ old house, take care of my dog (including, but not limited to, prescription food, monthly medications, vet visits). I feel the mediation was unjust and left me hanging by a thread.

Mrs. Perez, It would be helpful if you would give all the details including all the property that you were awarded in mediation. You failed to mention that. I am sorry that you are now regretting what you openly agreed to in mediation after hour and hours of discussion. I wish you all the best.

custody

Soon as she was paid her retainer fee, she was not interested in helping with my case. Only answered a few of my calls. I’m going higher up then this.

You did not even pay your full retainer and I still began working on your case. I met with you, prepared pleadings which were emailed to you and spoke with you numerous times and responded to numerous text messages. If you want to continue to spew lies in an attempt to diminish my reputation that is your choice. Good luck and God bless!

Reasonable price, good job

Jessica went out of her way to assist in my custody case, even through the birth of her child. She offered one of the most reasonable prices I found in my search and she got the job done quickly and efficiently.

Works for the Mahoneys

In my opinion this is the absolute worst attorney ever. I WOULD NOT HIRE THIS WOMAN IF I COULD GO BACK IN TIME!!!! I thought that she started out as a decent lawyer for my custody case. Told me everything that I needed (wanted) to hear. Sue sue sue......go for it....you got it..... no problem....etc.......etc. Do not believe any of her lies. It is all about money with her. The only thing that was any good was that the opposing council (Matthew Mahoney) let her know that my ex had a DUI that he was handling, she told me that he accidentally gave her that case and then she guaranteed my case because of that (HER EXACT WORDS WERE....YOU WILL NEVER BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED, OPPOSING COUNCIL IS SUCH AN IDIOT......ETC, ETC) . Then she just gave up. Did not hear from her for quite awhile after that. The case continued on and I paid over and over again. Nothing happened. In the end i got rid of her. A new attorney and a few weeks later..... my daughter lives with me. Be really careful when it comes to Jessica Adams.

Mr. Howell, I am sorry that you feel this way. I cannot go in to specifics of your case, however, I will say that you and I both know I made every attempt to resolve this matter for you and have proof of times I attempted to contact you. When you did not want to pay the additional cost to complete your case I retuned your unused funds and even gave you credits on your account for services rendered. Either way, I am very happy that things worked out for you and your family and I wish you all the best.
