Amazing lawyer

Amazing lawyer was with every step of the way. Always had answers when I needed them and very hard working. I won my case and received an additional $3,000. I recommend him for any legal issues you have, you’re almost guaranteed to win with him.

Excellent Attorney

Donovan Jacobs handled a civil suit on my autistic brothers homicide and was so effective against the defendant, the State of California, they settled with my mother for $800,000.00. Donovan Jacobs has since proven himself in several other cases, including nearly a half million dollar settlement in ...an auto accident, and uncountable smaller cases that had big impacts for the betterment of his clients. Mr. Jacobs puts his heart into his cases, and never gives up.
