Extensive and current knowledge of the law and legal process!

Jessica did a great job of producing the nearly the exact result which we had initially discussed (slight variance due to time frame and final settlement amount). She knows the law and how to achieve results for her clients. She was pleasant to work with and almost always provided a very quick res...ponse to my emails/calls.

Great Experience

Consumer Protection Attorney Jessica Dorman was the first help & ray of hope when trying to keep afloat in the economic mess. My bank chose not to modify my home loan and that resulted in not being able to pay my credit card bills. I had excellent credit all my life until this situation. My credit... score tanked and the debt collection calls started. I felt like a terrible person and was severely stressed. There was not enough money to pay the mortgage and the collection debt. This went on for months. I couldn't sleep and worried all the time. The collection calls escalated and I felt helpless to the point of checking with a bankruptcy attorney who said he couldn't help me. He provided me with Jessica's firms name and I read their website. The website was informative & easy to read. I called the firm to make an appointment and they got me in quickly. I am a Medical Professional and was impressed that they took a holistic approach in looking at the whole picture. This was much more than who was calling and who did I owe. Jessica and another Attorney listened to my story and said they thought they could help. They understood how stressful this situation was and Jessica took my case. She explained we would not see immediate results but with their advocacy & knowledge that a solution seemed workable. With this hope I took a deep breath for the first time in months. They put things into a prospective that took the pressure and guilt off of me. I slept much better that night. Jessica kept in good contact with me when anything was happening. If I had questions between times or about the paperwork she always returned calls and was patient if I needed an explanation of some of the legal jargon. Within a few short months I am happy to say that the creditors settled or went away due to the excellent skill of Jessica. I just couldn't believe how simple this was once Jessica took my case. The results were much better than I expected and I recently checked my credit score and it was back up to a very good number. They educated me about my consumer rights and that I didn"t have to be a passive victim of debt collection harassment. I have given their literature to others that are having similar problems. Jessica and this office are simply amazing.

AS a client of Jessica, I appreciated that she was prompt, knowledgable about the facts of my case, and applicable law, and delivered excellent results for me.

Calling Jessica was a great decision!!!

I have used Jessica twice for issues with credit card collections. I was scared when the Process Server showed up at my door and did not know what to do. I called Jessica and she immediately put me at ease. In my first case I was being sued for $3000 and ended up paying only $1700, including all fee...s. I also was able to make my payments in installments and the debt was removed from my credit. I never had to appear in court even once, Jessica handled it all, court appearance, mediation, etc. In the second case, I got a letter from the collector AFTER they had been notified that I had retained Jessica. Jessica had explained to me that if I was contacted in any way by the collector after retaining her, I should notify her immediately. Jessica sued the debt collectors and I ended up wiping away the debt and after all fees, I actually made $500! These collectors are viscious. If you get sued do yourself a favor and call Jessica!

When dealing with LAW there's no margin for mistakes

After speaking with a number of attorneys, I was impressed with Jessica's professionalism and enthusiasm. She won me over and needless to say she won the case against an imposing adversary.
