Needs 10 stars

I originally hired an Austin attorney, before I knew Justin and his firm, I was in the middle of a very nasty custody battle which included false allegations by my ex to removing my daughter from TX. Long story short, my original attorney dropped the ball, she didn't even show up to day 1 of a 2 day... trial. Needless to say I lost everything. I fired her and met with 2 other attorneys who both referred me to Justin. I ended up meeting with him a couple days later and he saw through the BS that my ex laid out, he listened and knew I had a case. He wasn't scared or intimidated by the judge or opposing attorney. He said he could fix everything and I believed him. I knew I found the right guy for the job. Slowly buy surely, court appearance after court appearance, he started chipping away at my case. Each time we were in court we had a victory, from removing the protective order placed on me by the judge (false allegations), to getting my summer visitations and ultimately getting back to the original divorce agreement of 50/50 custody. We're not done, the fight continues and we're going for full custody. It's a long and bumpy road but I can tell you, with Justin by your side you will make it through.

Wouldn't change a thing...

I hired Mr. Jackson this past January to represent me in my divorce. Having never gone through divorce proceedings previously, I felt very unsure as to what questions I needed to even be asking of my attorney. Mr. Jackson and his staff were extremely helpful guiding me through the process and answeri...ng all of my questions regardless of the time of day. There were more than a few unexpected bumps along the way, but Mr. Jackson always remained calm and explained in detail my options and what way he felt obstacles could be removed and/or avoided altogether. I fully appreciated his experience and knowledge of family law. I wouldn’t change a single decision he and I made.

Jackson Law Firm

Going to Mr. Jackson was the best decision I made in my divorce case. It was a complicated case and the few law firms I went to before Mr. Jackson, assure me that I had ALL to lose and the kids mother could do what she was doing. I was at a lost when I met with Mr. Jackson. I explain to Mr. Jackson I... wanted a divorce and that the kids mom had taken and move the kids to Hereford Tx, almost 9hrs away from Austin, against my will. I told him what I wanted, I wanted the kids to move back to Austin so I can see them as much as possible. Within 4-6 weeks I had my kids with me while the process of custody was underway. At the conclusion of our case I got 50/50 custody, I do not have to pay child support, medical insurance has to be provided by the mom. I end up with everything I wanted, my kids back in Austin, and more. After a few lawyers telling me I will have to keep paying child support and the kids will stay with their mom in Hereford Tx like she wanted to, Mr. Jackson made me see some light again and got my Kids back for me. It was just AMAZING what he did and glad I met Mr. Jackson! Everyone keeps asking me how did I end up with this great outcome and I tell them to meet Mr. Jackson. I have and always will keep recommending Jackson Law Firm! Mr. Garcia

Not a good experience

It was my first divorce and I didn't know what to do. He offered no advice and more often than not didn't reply to emails. I had more advice in a 15 minute conversation with another attorney when I was looking around than all that I received from him. I had to meet with him to ask him to respond to m...y communications. He made multiple guarantees that were not kept including going to my old house to retrieve my possessions. I asked him to draft the decree and he did not. He let the other attorney do it. More than two months later I still hadn't received one word or the decree. It turns out the other attorney forgot to file it, and both me and my soon to be ex wife thought we were divorced. Months after that I was prompted to pay for filing my ex-wife's Special Warranty Deed and it was not filed yet. She was already trying to rent the house without the assumption of liability being filed. There was a court ordered deadline and this was months afterwards.

Justin Jackson Law Firm

My experience with Justin and his staff proved to be a postive and professional one. He promptly returned my calls and emails and addressed my requests with intelligence and insight. A man of integrity, Justin was honest and true to the highest standards of his profession as he handled my divorce. H...e was interested in what I had to say and listened without distraction. I would definitely recommend him and his efficient and friendly workers to both family and friends!
