Child custody/ Divorce

Want an attorney that knows what she is doing? I am telling anyone who needs a lawyer in the areas that she practices, to look no further than Attorney Eva Jacobson. Eva is dedicated, honest, passionate, professional at what she does and she listens. I can't tell you how grateful and thankful I am ...that God allowed my path to cross with attorney Jacobson. I was going through a rough child custody/divorce case where the other party wanted to get full custody of our child whom he showed little interest in only because he wanted avoid paying his financial duties and wanted to leave me with nothing at all. Ever since I presented my case to attorney Jacobson, she went above and beyond for me and WON my case. she has worked non stop (late nights) to educate me and answered all the questions that I had about my child custody/divorce case. She took her time to make sure I understood every detail of what to expect during the trial. Attorney Jacobson took/ responded to all my calls and emails (even on her days off). I never felt rushed by her. My trial was a bit long and pushed back due to the other party and his lawyer not wanting to compromise, and also covid being in affect and everywhere went on lockdown, but that did not stopped attorney Jacobson at all. Although we were unable to meet in the office to go over paper work, she would FaceTime/WhatsApp me to explain every piece of paperwork that I would need to sign or go over. I trusted ever bit of her judgment and I went on virtual trial feeling relaxed and confident. I have met with other attorney's, but attorney Jacobson is truly the best I have ever met and worked with. she deserves more than five stars. Don't let the pretty smile in her picture fool you, Attorney Jacobson is a professional "beast" in the courtroom (beast = Fighter). So happy for the outcome of my case and most importantly, my child remains in my custody. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a lawyer that cares and fight to make sure you get what you need. Another thing I would say, she is honest, so be honest and upfront with her about everything that she ask, that would really help your case even more. Thank you and thank you once again Attorney Eva Jacobson.

Efficient and Compassionate

Attorney Jacobson was a breath of fresh air after some past experiences I had with other lawyers in the state of Connecticut. She actually cares about saving you money and being helpful for your future. I felt like she cared about my concerns and she was upfront and realistic with me with what my leg...al options and likely outcomes would be. I was thankful for her efficiency, intelligence, and compassion. She treated me with respect and also understood my difficult position and was helpful when I was (often) confused or scared. Most important of all, she cared about my children and that things were conducted in the best way for their sakes. I highly recommend Attorney Jacobson for your legal needs in family court, especially if you're a woman and you have a high conflict divorce with an abusive ex-partner. She will be clear with you about state law/family court and she will not make things worse because she's got herself organized and you will feel more secure with her by your side during the difficult times.

A very satisfied client!

This was my first time going through a divorce and I cannot say enough great things about this wonderful person. Eva made me feel at peace during one of the most stressful periods of my life. Her professionalism is top notch. Eva explained everything to me in terms I could understand, she gave me opt...ions when I thought I had none and just made the whole experience as non terrifying as possible. If you are in need of a lawyer look no where else Eva Jacobson is the perfect fit for your case. I walked away feeling very pleased!

Eva Jacobson is an angel working as a lawyer

Eva Jacobson always had my best interest at heart. She gave me a calming reassurance for me and my family. She thought of things I didn’t think about. Eva is so insightful and She taught me how to see and view situations in different ways. Eva always has my back and I am forever grateful to have work...ed with her.

My Lighthouse in the Storm

Prior to meeting with Eva for a consultation, I had never utilized the services of an attorney to navigate the legal system. I was blindsided with a complicated custody/parenting case involving my child. Initially, I tried to navigate the court system on my own (as I was not prepared to pay for... legal services). However, I found myself unprepared to properly represent the interests of my child on my own. I was completely overwhelmed while trying to represent myself/my daughter. Eva was recommended to me by a family member. When I first met with Eva, her kindness, willingness to listen, and knowledge of the court system instantly made me feel more comfortable with the situation I was facing. She listened (and answered) all of my questions; counseled me on the process; and worked WITH me (an intelligent, headstrong, opinionated Momma Bear) to Draft an agreement that would work best for my family. She worked tirelessly with the other side to come to an amicable solution for everyone involved. Upon finalizing and signing the Order, the Judge called it "one of the most detailed parenting agreements he has seen" and congratulated us for coming to an agreement on soo many longstanding issues. Eva is the most dedicated, passionate, professional that I have ever had the pleasure of having on my side. My family and I will always be grateful to Eva for (being our Lighthouse) helping us find our way out of this nasty storm.
