Highly Recommended

Attorney Rachel Jacobson has been my most memorable experience working with a lawyer. A divorce can be an extremely sensitive and painful experience, but thankfully Rachel was not only my chosen attorney to consult with, she was also a compassionate friend. Her ability to use her knowledge in order t...o smooth out a rough experience demonstrates her professional talents along with her upstanding character. My phone calls and inquiries were always answered with full attention, and resolution. Rachel gives accurate assessments, practical advice, and puts her clients’ best interests first. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone I know.

Great family law lawyer

Reli met with me and my wife for a consult dealing with a change in my custody agreement between my ex-wife and me. She sat with us for over an hour, then answered numerous phone calls reviewing emails and giving me advise. With her assistance, I was able to come to an agreement with my ex without ...having to go to court or lose my ability to be with my children. Thanks Reli

Excellent and caring attorney

Ms. Jacobson became involved in my case within 4 days of a serious car accident. She immediately handled the issue of my totaled car on which I still had a loan. She not only asked questions but she encouraged my participation and always returned calls and answered every question and concerns. As my ...case was medically complicated she also brought in an attorney who was an expert in medically complicated cases to ensure I had the best possible representation. I have no reservations referring her to anyone as she is a caring, compassionate and professional attorney.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • 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.
