Jake and his team took my case which was should have been simple but turned out to be much more difficult than expected and they fought beside me at every unexpected turn of events. His team (Elizabeth specifically was my go-to girl) was easy to contact thankfully since I had many questions as I am u...nfamiliar with the divorce and custody process. I was shocked at their loyalty and dedication to my case and gave me the confidence to fight for my rights and for my child until I received a fair deal. Thank you to you and your team Jake! What you have done for me will will echo through eternity, you have saved my relationship with my daughter - and for that I am forever grateful. - Kate

Jake helped me through the toughest time in my life. He provided me with sound advice during a very highly emotional period. He had a network of professionals, including Heather, that helped me evaluate the worth of my assets in order for me to make key decisions. He was able to provide various opti...ons and presented the pros and cons for each decision. He was very responsive in returning calls and keeping me informed throughout the process. Jake truly cares about his clients and has their best interests in mind. Thank you Jake and Heather!

I had an initial consultation with Jake this past summer for divorce. At that consultation, he didn't encourage me to get divorced or ask for a retainer to start the process of filing for divorce. Instead, he encouraged me to be patient and to not file at that moment. Throughout the summer, he w...ould email, call and text to check up on me and ask me for updates and give me advice or just provide encouragement. He was always responsive to my calls or emails, often calling or responding within the hour. If he could not return my emails or calls promptly due to being in court or other commitments, he would always let me know he was tied up and would call later that day. I ended up not needing to hire him and I credit a lot of that to Jake. The divorce attorney that encouraged me not to get a divorce! You cannot go wrong by hiring Jake. He will work tirelessly for you and treats you with respect, compassion and empathy. He is supportive of finding the most peaceful path through divorce but is more than capable if it doesn't end up so peaceful. You want him to be on your side fighting for you.

Best divorce lawyer period! When I first met Jake, I was looking for an attorney that would help guide me through the process of a very amicable divorce that included a 50/50 custody split for our 3 children. I only needed a simple contract between two individuals and Jake was extremely helpful, gu...iding me with candid advice on what should be included in the contract, how the legal system worked, and gave me the emotional comfort of knowing that I was protected in the event the case became contentious. We quickly drafted the original agreement and it worked to establish the grounds for my spouse and I to separate households. About a year later, things became contentious and some unreasonable demands were being placed on the final divorce decree proposals. I needed help to defend my position and unfortunately Jake was on leave from work due to the birth of a new baby. I was forced to hire a different attorney to represent me and it was the biggest mistake I have ever made. My spouse had hired an aggressive attorney and I went through a period of time where everyone that I knew was subpoena for depositions about the case. I lost my job, went through all of my savings paying for legal time, and was having a difficult time even making ends meet. All I wanted was to mediate our differences and conclude the divorce proceedings, but it seamed that my spouse and her attorney wanted to pressure me to give in to their demands without comprise. Then I reached out to Jake and found that he had returned to work and he immediately asked that I come in to catch him up on the case. After a brief 30 minute conference he said that he would take my case and would be sending out notices to the other attorneys. The moment that those emails went out, my nightmare ended. The apposing counsel immediately stopped harassing me with subpoenas and my spouse actually reached out to me and asked that we work on a compromise. It was a total change from the instant that Jake sent notification that he was back on the case. It was literally a few hours later that my spouse contacted me and said "I just heard that you changed lawyers. How about we just mediate this and work it out." I think other lawyers truly respect Jake and act differently when he takes a case. Ultimately it took only 3 hours in mediation to resolve the issues, draft the final decree, and finish the divorce. I would highly recommend Jake for anyone going through a divorce. He provides a great service in an industry where some lawyers like to do unnecessary services. Jake is direct and does not waist time at all on unnecessary tasks. If you have a question, he is quick to respond and gives you honest and direct answers. He gives you options and tells you his recommendation, then let's you decide. I had lots of questions and his responses always gave me the feeling that I was safe and protected. Divorce is an emotional and draining experience. Jake makes the process as smooth and as calm as it can possibly be. Thank you Jake.
