Just as I was dealing with a very difficult situation, I got lucky and came across Ms. Jayne who listened and advised with patience and kindness. My case got different turns during a period of one year but Ms. Jayne's professionalism and timeliness kept it from taking the unwanted direction and eventually we achieved the desired result. I wish her further success in her work and undoubtedly- I highly recommend her!

My case was resolved in less than half an hour after my first meeting with Atty Julia.
Yes, unbelievable! She worked like lightning
aggressive and fast! I was feeling hopeless when I
searched for criminal defense lawyers in my area.
Upon reading the comments, my intuition told me
she's the right one. She emailed me right away and
we're really prompt in responding to my inquiries. At
that time I've felt like she was sent to defend me (I
prayed for the right one). She's honest,
straightforward, witty, sharp. After talking to her, I
insisted on having a consultation, I really needed to
see her coz I knew in my heart she would hear me,
and fought for me. Who am I anyway, a victim of
heartless people, migrated from
a foreign country and only had my mom and 2 little
kids. I cried my heart out while telling my story and
the facts of my case. Julia has a big heart. She
comforted me. I've felt her sincerity. She enlightened me about the procedure in the US and that she didn't see anything to worry about. 20 minutes after I left her office, I received numerous calls! From her! She said, Come back I will returnyour money. I said why?"The case is closed! I've spoke with .." I wasoverwhelmed with so much emotions- grateful,,vindicated, exhausted, I criedand prayed like I havenever done before. Thank you Lord for sending me this person. Thank you Atty Julia. I am forever grateful. When I came back, hugged her so tight. She saved me, my kids, my family.So my rating? Above and beyond!

Julia is a great lawyer, and has the skills and personality you want to represent you and negotiate on your behalf. My case involved a settled outcome that satisfied the prosecutor, and she was just brilliant at that. She is very responsive and gave me good advice early in my case, of course. But after the initial stage, she really went into overdrive, and recognized that she had an opportunity with this prosecutor to get my case dismissed. She knew an expert who did an effective evaluation and used another expert also in an artful way. She was correct that this would satisfy the prosecutor, and made it happen.
She's one of those rare high-EQ people that works so well with persons, but who uses the rapport she builds to get a good outcome. She had a great strategy, and inspired a lot of confidence.
I would hire her for any lawyer work, but also for any negotiation, which I think requires even more skill and talent.

I had a situation where I needed to hire an Attorney so I asked a longtime friend of mine (who is also an Attorney) to refer me to someone that specializes what I need. He highly referred Julia Jayne - telling me "she is sharp and everyone speaks very highly of her".
After my initial call, I was convinced she was the right person. Aside from being smart and savvy, she is very down to earth, straight forward and has the unique ability to simplify complicated things into laymen's terms. Within minutes of retaining her she was fast at work and within less than a month, she resolved everything!
What I loved about Julia is that she always answers the phone and responds to emails and calls in real time. Anyone can tell she is super busy and high in demand but yet she takes her time to explain everything and to answer all questions to make the client comfortable. She is also thorough in everything she does and her follow up skills are amazing!
In addition to her services I feel as though I received at least two college credits in law from everything that she was able to teach me. I would highly recommend her and would use her again if I ever need an attorney!

Julia Mezhinsky is amazing lawyer. She is very honest, smart, intelligent, energetic and very friendly . She is really wonderful person who knows her job very well. She helped me with very hard case . Thanks to Julia I won this case and I did not even go to court. My case was dismissed. Also, on first free consultation I have received a full detailed information related to my case which was very helpful, not like other lawyers want to get money right away before to give you full information.
I definitely recommend Julia Mezhinsky as a very good professional lawyer.

The Alameda County District Attorney's first offer in my case was for 6 months in custody. In addition, the victim in my case (which involved harassment and a restraining order violation) was adamant that I serve as much time as possible and actively involved in the case.
Julia Jayne was able to negotiate a plea bargain with the DA that resulted in my spending just over a month in custody - a small fraction of the time that the DA and the victim had been pushing for.
Julia was always available to answer questions and give advice, and she explained everything in layman's terms. I felt that Julia was genuinely concerned with not only the outcome of my case, but also with my personal welfare. Julia treated me like a close friend or family member throughout my case and I am still occasionally in touch with her.
In sum, Julia is an excellent lawyer who will work hard for the best possible result in your case, who is also empathic to your situation and will make the process as painless for you and your family as she can.

I recently hired Julia for the case of a family member.
At the beginning we hired another attorney but we wanted a better resolution that attorney couldn't provide. After intensively research on internet, I decided to contact Julia for consultation. I received Julia's response immediately. After exchanging a few rounds of emails with me to understand the case and our need, she took actions immediately because of the urgency of the case. We were impressed with Julia's professionalism and speed with which she was able to provide assistance and resolution. She kept following up on our case until the end. And she is very experienced and skilled. That was the main reason we changed our lawyer and hired her. And we were glad we did that. The case turned out the way we had hoped, beyond hoped it would.
Again, Julia was very professional, responsive and determined to help. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking legal advise and help.
