Posted by Becky | June 05, 2024 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Very helpful, kind, and smart!

I was guided through the whole divorce process with Jacob. He did everything in a timely manor and did his very best. He always took the lead on what I wanted and he always made sure everything was done how I wanted. Great communication as well. I got a fair child support and alimony because of him. ...I would definitely recommend anyone going through any divorce to have Jacob help them.

Great Attorney

I hired Jacob to represent me in a family law case my ex-husband initiated. Living in Missouri and having to hire an attorney in Utah was a little stressful, but Jacob made the process go very smoothly. We had an initial consultation over the phone where we discussed the case, my thoughts and feeling...s, and what the next steps going forward would be if I hired Jacob. Jacob really listened to me, understood where I was coming from and the situation at hand, and was straightforward about how he thought the case would turn out. After hiring Jacob to represent me, we communicated pretty regularly through email, texts, and phone calls. Jacob was very conscious about his fees, and he did his best to keep costs as low as possible for me. I really appreciated this and didn't feel like he was cutting corners or slacking in any way to keep costs low. He kept me in the loop regarding the case throughout the entire process and he made sure to submit my answers and evidence to the court in a timely manner to make sure we were within deadlines. When my court date finally arrived, Jacob and I had a brief phone conversation before our WebEx session to make sure we had everything covered and to discuss the argument Jacob would be making. Jacob stayed on track and argued every point we discussed. Though we didn't get the exact outcome we were hoping for, Jacob did a great job minimizing my loss and I was happy with the outcome we got. Jacob did a great job representing me in this case. Should the need arise in the future, I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again. He listens to his clients and is always asking for input and direction. He treated my case like we were a team and I really appreciated being involved in what was happening.

Amateur and unskilled attorney outside of anything simple

I consulted with Jacob when he was a fairly new attorney outside of family law. He struggled with advanced legal arguments (anything other than the usual "failure to state a claim" reply) and was not really able to form a cohesive structure in his writing. He lacks a logical mind that excellent attor...neys have as the research and writing that we consulted with came back to that of a first year law student. I am rating him average, because there was nothing above-average in his work.

This review really hurts as I am very invested in my reputation and take considerable pride in it. I always take accountability for my shortcomings, but don't recall consulting with William and a couple things are not adding up. As a new attorney, I never did consultations with prospective clients as I worked in a firm, and practice group, where that was handled almost exclusively by the partners. Also, I do not typically discuss complex legal analysis during initial consultations (that usually happens in later meetings) and a prospective client would have never seen my written work product. I always attempt to tailor a winning strategy, but it is true that I give honest and candid legal advice. I think it it is a disservice to a prospective client (or client) to inflate their position, because it is simply what they want to hear. Sometimes, a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim really is the best argument to make.

A professional you can trust

I have worked with Jacob on a couple of different cases and he was masterful. His preparation exceeded expectations and his knowledge was key in our favorable outcomes. Jacob will be the first person I turn to with any future legal needs

Posted by Andrew | May 26, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

Very thorough and accessible.

Jacob has been helping me through a child support restructuring and has been great. He is extremely accessible when I need and really knows his stuff. I never felt pressured into making one decision over another, he has very thoughtfully guided me through the process. He has been a great guide thr...oughout this process and is ready to go to bat for me.
