Don't recommend

Disorganized, late, and not committed to the best outcome for my family. She left her previous practice without notifying me, and before my case was completely resolved. Clerical errors that will now be permanent on my daughters birth certificate.

Best Attorney

I cannot say enough about Jessi, she had her hands full with my two cases. She worked hard for me but , also worked with me on every issue. Her staff is also outstanding, going above and beyond. She has my 5 ⭐️. Do not hesitate to work with incredible attorney she will not disappoint. Marsha Mabee

Great attorney.

Hired her in a complicated family law case. She worked hard and fought for my rights as a dad and her and her staff were available then and still are now. I recommend her to anyone and would hire her again if I needed to.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
