Such an experienced, friendly and affordable lawyer

She is the best lawyer I have ever known and experienced. She goes all out to make sure its a win win for client. She is very patient and takes time to work on your case. She is affordable and flexible in pricing. She takes telephone calls and text messages all the time and even on weekends. It will ...not be a surprise to see her becoming a judge. I highly recommend her to work on your divorce, separation and Immigration cases. Retain her and you will never regret.

Absolutely fabulous, fantastic and fastidious.

I went out on a wing hired Eva at the 11th hour for a divorce that should have been straight forward but was very painfully drawn out. I would have been very unfairly gouged had I not switched to her. With no time to prepare she managed to get everything compiled and got my case back on track and acr...oss the final hurdles! I cannot give enough praise about her communication which was top notch, prompt, and consistent. Now only was I told why certain things were needed but also why they were important. I was treated with respect despite my complete lack of knowledge of the law. I was kept informed of all developments nearly as they happened and if I needed to reach out to her it was always painless to do so. There was never any nonsense and she told everything to me straight. Unlike my previous attorney I could easily tell that she was working very diligently in the background all the time. (Often times even late at night which I still feel bad about!) I was impressed with not only the things that she caught that were previously missed or ignored but also her knowledge of the very small details in a divorce case that can make all the difference. I wish more then anything I had hired her from the start and would recommended her to anyone!

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.

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.
