Great Divorce Lawyer

Jake and his team provided incredible support during a difficult divorce involving one child. Despite many changes and back-and-forth, they guided me through the process with clarity and patience. They were especially helpful in keeping me on track with upcoming timelines and meetings, which alleviat...ed a lot of stress. Jake is relatable, approachable, and genuinely cares about his clients. I highly recommend him to anyone navigating a challenging divorce.

Definitely recommend

Jake was an amazing attorney. He was super kind but straight forward he eased my anxieties a lot about being in court as I’ve never done it before. He helped me with a protection order & a custody case. He did specific petitions so the judge knew exactly what I was asking for and why. He was super qu...ick but very thorough and made sure I understood everything that was happening whether in court or with paperwork. He was also very quick with responses to any questions or concerns I had as well. I would definitely hire him again but hopefully I won’t need to haha.

Jake is the best!

We first made contact with Jake back in May of 2024 to help us in a custody case for my son. After interviewing multiple lawyers, we were most impressed with Jake’s determination, attitude, and professionalism. During the interview he took notes on our case and what we wanted as well as advised us... of what was most likely going to happen without sugar coating anything. He was the most upfront lawyer I have ever spoken with, which gave me more peace of mind then false hopes or empty promises. During the course of our case the opposing counsel frequently ignored emails, phone calls, and even standard procedures that Jake would submit in order to move the case forward. No matter how difficult it got Jake was there to help and reassure us. He knew every step and correct procedure to take and I never felt that we had forgotten anything. Whenever I had a concern about delays, no responses from opposing counsel or even just the overall cost of everything, Jake was there to help me and my family. In May we decided to attempt a settlement conference even though any attempt at mediation failed. During the conference Jake had my interests and concerns ready for the judge to hear as well as advised me without delay about potential settlements. Needless to say I felt more than comfortable with Jake by my side. By the end of it we were able to come to a settlement that insured my child would remain safe and home with us without the need to go to trial. We honestly never would have got to this without Jake and all the effort he brought. I would also like to add that Jennifer, Ann, Maren, and Misty all did amazing work helping with our case!

Jake takes the high road for his client

Jake is the attorney you want in your corner in any high-conflict divorce and custody case. He continually ‘took the high road’ to put the best interest of my children and me front-and-center throughout the many twists and turns of my divorce. This was especially true in drafting exact and precise ...stipulations to hold the other party accountable to avoid the court system from being manipulated or abused. He found knowledgeable witnesses to support my case. Through honing his skills with continuing education and experience in hostile conflict (domestic abuse) cases as well as military and veteran issues, he is able to protect his client as well as obtain favorable outcomes. Jake’s expertise and support is an experience I am most thankful for, and will continue to be, for years to come.

Top Talent

While dating someone in Idaho, her ex husband hired Jake to help with enforcing a divorce decree. Jake was excellent and the woman I was dating was penalized for delaying her obligations. Two years later I am in a situation that required a very strong attorney to help me. I spoke to an associa...te at the firm who said Jake is going to be your best bet. Jake knew I was under a very tight deadline and managed to save me from what would have been a devastating outcome. He got me in front of the judge in record time and was able to turn the entire situation around. The favorable outcome was everything I could have hoped for. His team is very strong and it would have been a disaster for me if I hadn’t fallen into Jake’s and Jennifer ‘s (his paralegal) capable hands. I have worked with many lawyers and Jake and his team ranks among the best from my experience.
