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.

Client

I want to take a moment to thank and recognize my attorney, Jessica, for the incredible work she did on my custody case. As a father, I started this journey feeling like the odds were stacked against me. My ex was unstable, homeless at times, and frequently moving around, staying with different famil...y members throughout Texas. Despite having a court order in place, she repeatedly violated it—keeping my kids from me, hiding them, and making visitation nearly impossible. I could honestly write a book about everything that went wrong. But Jessica stood by me every step of the way. She fought hard, stayed focused on what mattered, and never let up. She believed in my right to be a father to my children—both my daughter and my son—and thanks to her dedication and relentless work, the court ruled in my favor. I now have custody of my kids. If you're a father who thinks you can't win custody, I'm living proof that you can—with the right attorney. Jessica is that attorney. I would absolutely hire her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone going through a tough custody battle.

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.

She was absolutely the best.

Jessica worked tirelessly throughout COVID to ensure that my divorce was not delayed. She kept me updated during the process and even put many of my worries at ease. I even had difficulty finding a notary to complete my last form for court. She was able to connect me with a virtual notary and was ab...le to do it right in my own car. I can’t thank her enough for all her help. She is amazing.

Compassionate

She was very clear with what we would go through process wise. She told me worse case versus best case. She listened to me and was patient even when I did not automatically chose her until later. I also appreciated her prompt response and when she was quick to contact my now ex husband’s lawyer when ...my ex had threatened me.
