This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

A Great Lawyer!

I highly recommend Jakob Seegmuller to anyone seeking a great lawyer. Jakob Seegmuller rapidly earned my 100% confidence and trust in his ability to analyze and synthesize a large volume of evidence and background information I had e-mailed to him. I was an out-of-state heir and the lawyer handling... my parent’s complex estate had given me a short deadline (3 weeks) to approve a vague, overly-generalized Inventory and an opaque Declaration of Completion, but Jakob Seegmuller successfully met the time challenge well ahead of the deadline. I wanted to avoid a court battle and thanks to Jakob Seegmuller’s persistence in preparation for our phone consultation and in following up with me after our consultation, his thorough knowledge of estate law, his compassion and ability to listen well, and his assertiveness rather than aggressiveness, I was able with his expert advice to obtain the information I needed from the executor without having to go to court and was therefore able to approve the closing documents with confidence that I had a clear understanding of what I was approving. Yet, if it had been necessary to go to court, I now know Jakob Seegmuller would be a great lawyer to represent me based on his knowledge of the law and what would give me the strongest position, on his demonstrated high level of ethics, his ability to think logically, his analytical skill, his responsiveness to me – very important when representing an out-of-state client, and his meaningful feedback that helped me focus on the most important factors of the matter. Again, I highly recommend Jakob Seegmuller to anyone seeking a great lawyer.

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.
