Excellent Attorney, Relaxed Office, and He Answers His Own Phone!

Mr. Jacobs assisted me with handling my mother's estate when she passed away earlier this year, then prepared a Living Trust and associated estate planning documents for my husband and me. Throughout the whole process I was very impressed with Mr. Jacobs' ability to explain complex legal issues in p...lain english. He seemed to really know his stuff, and took the time to be sure we understood everything as clearly as possible (even though we were paying him a flat fee, not hourly billing). I also really liked the fact that he runs a small, relaxed office, and often answers his own phone. Try to get that at a big law firm! In short, Ken Jacobs is not your typical lawyer, and I highly recommend him to anyone who needs a Living Trust or Will, or to handle an Estate.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
