Exceptional attorney

Eva was recommended to me by a close friend, and I decided to have her represent me in my divorce case. She was able to thoroughly explain to me what to expect and answered all of my questions every step of the way. She went above and beyond to fight for the best possible outcome for myself and my d...aughter, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. She is very organized and quick to respond and was able to calm my nerves and reassure me throughout the entire process. I would recommend Eva 110% without a doubt.

The Best of the Best.

Eva represented me for 5 years, through 2 separate family cases in New Haven. Eva is confident, knowledgeable and is not easily intimidated. She returns phone calls and emails immediately. She is prompt and thorough. Whenever I had concerns with filing objections and contempt motions, Eva answered ...all my questions with plausible, honest outcomes (the good, the bad and the ugly). She did not tell me, "What I wanted to hear". She gave me the best and worst possible outcomes, so we were always prepared for court. Always prepared. What makes Eva a 'Unicorn' is her ability to empathize; she understands what you're going through. She is patient. She is caring. Eva is extremely thorough and meticulous with filings and motions, effortlessly finding grammatical errors on opposing counsel's motions. It is pure entertainment when she does this. If you hire Eva, you will be represented with the highest standard of conduct, with integrity and respect. Choose Eva.

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!

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.
