Exceptional Lawyer

My case was rather complicated involving business asset distribution in addition to child custody and support issues. Jacqueline worked tirelessly and prevailed on all issues. I am happy I had her in my corner and will continue referring her on to others. She's top notch!

Always Fully Professional and Knowledgeable

From our first consultation through to the conclusion of my family law case, Jacqueline constantly impressed me with her diligence, knowledge of court precedents, detail orientation, integrity and honesty. She asked the right questions, focused on the key issues and formulated a presentation in cour...t that was honest and compelling. I would highly recommend her services in all family law matters and, given her excellent knowledge of financial issues, am confident she would excel in bankruptcy proceedings.

Not like the others...

She actually cares and does what's needed for the well being of her client and the children. There's none if the dramatic time and money wasting drama, posturing, bill padding and time-wasting most family law attorneys depend on. She is very calming, supportive, offers excellent guidance, insi...ght, and handles complicated matters with sound strategy. She was recommended by someone I trust after a terrible experience with legal counsel who spent the retainer and did nothing. Jacqueline conducts herself, her cases, and earns her living with integrity, which is a refreshing breath of fresh air in a profession where narcissism and corruption seem to be the norm.

Best lawyer ever

I want to thank Jacqueline for the tremendous help she has been in my life as an attorney, in my separation first and then my divorce. She has allways been there for me, no matter what and accessable at my request. Her compassion was unlimited and helped me out in all my troubles. She is honorable a...nd trustworthy. She kept me informed through out the entire process. Her knowledge gave me peace of mind and kept everything well organized and in time. Her confidentiality is outstanding. Before the process, she was a person I knew and after, a Friend I will cherish all my life.

someone that truly cares about what is best for a family.

Jacqueline Blade cares about the welfare of her clients and the well being of the children. She puts her whole heart into providing the solutions and does her very best to understand the needs of her clients of the families she works with in addition to being extremely organized. I would happily reco...mmended using this attorney which is unusual because I normally never do this. But, I feel it would be an injustice to not share with others looking for a "truly" devoted, dedicated, and hard working attorney which is very hard to find. Sincerely, L
