She is a go getter. Well worth the money. Tries to be prepared for everything. I'd use her every time I need a lawyer because she knows what she is doing.

What can I say, Attorney Jacobson is an outstanding attorney. Her experience, attention to detail, professionalism and wealth of knowledge puts her a cut above the rest! I couldn’t have chosen a better lawyer to represent me and the best intertidal my son. Thank you Amanda.

She came highly recommended by a top central Florida law firm who described her as a "shark". She definitely lived up to the hype and tore the opposition apart. She knew what we wanted and got it done quickly. She has lightening fast response to emails which is the best way to communicate with her. We would recommend her to anybody.

I discovered Amanda through a recommendation. I was quite pleased from our first meeting at how professional and knowledgeable she was and hired her on the spot. Overtime I could see she was compassionate and patient with me through my divorce process. She always had my best interests in mind and do what ever she could to fight for me. I would certainly recommend her to anyone needing a divorce attorney.

While Amanda as an attorney made herself available at all hours I feel she dragged the case on and did not want us to try to settle.... that it was more about money than working with the other party and it felt like the opposite should have been happened. When my ex was being reasonable on some issues Amanda still encouraged me to fight her because she said we could win on the issue... Looking back it made things a lot worse and more expensive.

I hired Andrew for a sensitive legal matter, and it was a complete disappointment. His lack of communication was appalling—I constantly had to chase him for updates, and even then, his responses were vague and unhelpful. Not only did he show a lack of understanding of the intricacies of my case, but his ability to really assist was subpar. It felt like he was unprepared and disinterested, leading to a less than favorable outcome for me. I wouldn't recommend Andrew to anyone seeking competent legal representation. Ge lacks lack professionalism, communication skills, and a genuine dedication to their clients' cases. More an understanding to fill his pockets with pushing cases through the process. This will be very slow and drawn out. He will say it is because of the backlog in the legal system.
