Jessica Higgins Catlin

Jessica has assisted with all aspects of my late father's estate. Everything has been done accurately, professionally, ethically, and with full explanations of all of the many choices to be made. Both my husband and I are lawyers, and lawyers can be demanding clients. I was especially impressed ...with Jessica's work in court, and at the Court of Appeals level of one of our disputes.

My lawyer

I have been working with Jessica Catlin for the past decade, in both personal and professional circumstances, from family trust issues to sophisticated real estate transactions. She has consistently proven to be positive, forthright, intelligent, thorough, and loyal - everything you want in an attorn...ey. Her negotiation skills and honesty are unparallelled. I would highly recommend her for all your legal needs.

"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Jessica Higgins Catlin for many years. We have worked together in many capacities: as opposing counsel, as counsel representing aligned parties in the same case, my serving as an expert witness for her clients and on bar association activities. Jessica is an outstanding lawyer. In addition, she is compassionate, empathic, ethical, industrious and a tireless advocate for her clients. Perhaps most importantly, Jessica has a wonderful sense of humor. Jessica is a joy to know and work with and I give her my highest recommendation. I am honored to count Jessica as a colleague and a friend."

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.
