Posted by Jamie | May 14, 2015 | Criminal Defense

One of the most professional, knowledgable and reliable lawyers my husband and I have ever worked with

Jacy not only is informative, knowledgable and reliable, she made us feel completely comfortable throughout our whole experience and was very empathetic towards our situation. She has passion and heart which clearly comes through all of the work that she does. She has represented my husband more than... once with DUI and other various charges. She guided him step by step through the process on how and where to take various classes, and also got him the best outcome on both situations we could have hoped for. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

  • 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.
