Best choice I could have made.

After talking with seven different attorneys, I chose Jacqueline to represent myself and my company in a number of issues. The case required bringing on an out of state attorney, and Jacqueline handled the vetting and choosing of that attorney on my behalf. I was very satisfied with her experienc...e, expertise, and would hire her again and again.

Not helpful

Jackie was quick to take my case and with her background and experience, I was hoping she would be able to do well with my case. I gave her specific instructions and knew what my case would need to win, and she did not choose to take the course of action. I became severely hurt by the way she handle...d this and lost sensitive information as a result. Working with her hurt me in the long run.

Dear Anonymous: I was very dismayed to read your review. I would very much like to address your comments directly with you and to repair the "hurt" you expressed in your review. Please feel free to email or call me. I would contact you, but you chose to leave an anonymous review. I pride myself on providing clients with an honest and full assessment of their cases. Sometimes a client suggests a course of action that I know from my 20 years of experience is unlikely to be successful. In those circumstances, I work with the client to come up with a more viable strategy that has the highest probability of a positive outcome. Nonetheless, I do not take a course of action in a case that a client has not approved. For this reason, I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to discuss your review directly. Sincerely, Jacqueline

Very honest and straight forward

Jacqueline has helped me on two separate occasions for two different matters. My husband and I both think she is awesome to work with. She is very open and honest. Her communication skills are fantastic and she is easy to talk to. She will work with you by asking the right questions that help get... your point across. Will always go to Jacqueline before anyone else! The office staff is very pleasant to work with as well!

Issue With Former Employer

Jacqueline recently represented me in an issue with my former employer. She was very professional and always responded to emails and phone calls promptly. I really appreciated that. She also provided me with very good guidance. Highly recommend.

Review of Jackie's work by client

Jackie is a true lawyer’s lawyer. I handled my case pro se, but Jackie provided assistance throughout as I am not a civil litigator. Whatever I did not know, she did. Her advice was spot on for every issue. She was on the phone helping me on short notice minutes before filings were due. I could ...not have done without her. I realize every case has its winning moments and losing moments, and clients can be frustrated if not angry with the results. But Jackie hangs in there through it all with a tough firm professional demeanor. I could not recommend her more highly. - Thanks, Jackie
