Lack of ethics

We hired Justin as my family blindsided with Divorce papers, After providing him with 6 folder full of records and he was so unprepared prepared in court, it blew my mind. The inattention to detail and how very unprepared he was. We were unnerved when, just before the hearing he asked fo...r more money - this was after having been paid the retainer well before the trial. Long story short he had to be asked to say the obvious by us during the trial and the judge kept looking at him for checking his phone repeatedly during the trial rather than listening to the hearing. He ended up working out the best deal for the opposing attorney and went over to the other attorney patting him on the back. No matter the circumstances Justin will do his best to help himself while harming our kiddos and extended family. Thank you Jackson Law firm!

Awesome!

Justin took my case with a short notice, I was blindsided with Divorce papers, Justin had only a few days to prepare, I know he had sleepless nights before my court date because he was so prepared and ready, it blowed my mind the attention to detail and how prepared he was, long story short he got me... full custody of my kids, coming from California I didn't even know that was possible in Texas, we end up working out the best deal for my two little ones and myself, No matter the circumstances Justin will do his best to help you, I'll be forever grateful and I would never hesitate to send my friends and family his way, Thank you Jackson Law firm!

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.

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.

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!
