I couldn’t have asked for better representation

During the most trying experience in my life I came across Jake Graff with BFG law firm and I know without a doubt I wouldn’t have made it out of this without him. Every phone call, email, and in person meeting was answered immediately and with the most level headed answers. Every court appearance, m...eadiation, and conference we attended Jake was there and prepared and had me prepared. His creative counsel and knowledge of the law far exceeded my expectations and got the result that was best for my family and myself. His paralegal Danay was also amazing and If I needed anything even just someone to talk me down and let me cry or vent both were there in a matter of minutes. Not only did he get me the best result possible with my divorce he also gave me peace of mind and comfort in a very emotional, scary, and chaotic situation.

Jake Graff Is The Best

When I first called to schedule an appointment for a consultation, his secretary put me right on the phone with him. Jake spoke with me for about a half hour. He asked what I was dealing with and he gave me many options as to how I could proceed...giving me time to think about it before my actual c...onsultation. Jake made me feel that I had someone who what battle for me if it came to it but would ultimately let me proceed with my divorce in the way I wanted. I had called a few other places and it just didn't feel right. When Jake was referred to me by a friend with her beaming remarks, I felt better. After I spoke with Jake the first time, I was sure I had the right lawyer. Divorce is horrible and I did not want it - but my former husband was set on it and Jake was considerate of my tender feelings and treated me with respect and gave me encouragement as well. I didn't have to worry that I was a woman being represented by a man - Jake was like a brother sticking up for a sister and that is exactly what I needed. Not only was Jake considerate of feelings but he explained the process and listened well- answering all of my questions. Jake knows what he is doing and knew how to handle every situation that came up- including my former husband's lawyer. Jake made the most grueling time in my life endurable because I was confident in his ability to take care of the business of my case. He kept in contact with me and communicated well so I was aware of any situation that came up. He gave excellent advice but let me have the final say. Lawyers get a bad reputation, but Jake did not fit those stereotypes. He is honest and truly represents his client's best interest. His office staff is also incredible. I am grateful I found Jake and will continue to recommend him to anyone in need of a well qualified lawyer.

Just The Best

I came to Jake Graff at a desperate time during a difficult divorce. Jake picked up the pieces and essentially saved my life. He is a compassionate and highly effective advocate, who gets the job done in a timely manner. I am so thankful for his efforts in my case and will now rely on Pack Graff LL...C and staff for all my legal needs and advice.
