It was such a blessing to decide to employ Jill Jackson for my legal services. She really went above and beyond the scope of anything I could have hoped for. She genuinely cares about you and wants to see the best end-result for your case, with no judgement. She works very hard and it shows. Always on time, and extremely knowledgeable of the system. Her advice made the difference in my particular case. If you have the misfortune of finding yourself in need of a lawyer, I strongly recommend that you hire Jill Jackson. I can't say enough good things to demonstrate how grateful I am to have had her work with me!

Be prepared, this is going to be a review of a rather epic length - but it’s all important to know if you are worried, scared, or feeling like the world is coming to an end!
The two or three months prior to my first meeting with Jill were potentially on the top 10 list of “The Most Ghastly Times in My Life.” I already felt like a complete wreck...and then I did something completely reckless, and got into trouble as a result, which exponentially worsened my plight. This reckless act could have very easily ruined my professional career - a career that I shed copious amounts of blood, sweat, and tears to make a reality.
I felt paralyzed and didn’t even know where to start. I called a few other lawyers first (simply because their Avoo advertisements were lit up brighter than the Las Vegas skyline - I didn’t know that a lot of these guys pay top dollar for featured listings). They were very confident in themselves...but not so much in me. They seemed impatient, and practically laughed in my face when I asked what the likelihood was for my case getting dismissed. They did not seem interested in my main concern - my professional reputation.
Then I decided to call Jill - and instantaneously was so relieved I did, because I felt a wave of relief wash over me. Her fee was higher than the others, which I was originally concerned about, and promptly told her so. She responded very reassuringly (unlike the other guys, who practically salivated while discussing the financials - gross); she’d work with me and wouldn’t leave me in the dust. She sounded sincere. That’s all it took for me to retain her.
I had an appointment booked with her the next week, in the mid-afternoon. Poor Jill probably had no idea what hit her, but I proceeded to unleash a torrent of misery as I explained what had happened. It was almost 6 pm by the time I finally wrapped up my story. Throughout those two or three hours, Jill listened absolutely attentively and non-judgmentally. She regarded me with so much compassion that I fleetingly wondered if she’d been a different kind of counselor in a former life. But underneath that compassion and humor and grace is an other-worldly DRIVE. A stubbornness (a “won’t take no for an answer” type of stubbornness) that is absolutely crucial in an attorney, when your reputation is soon to be defended in front of a bunch of strangers - and you’re facing the possibility that your entire life is about to change.
I showed up at court prepared for the worst. I felt smaller than a termite and just as helpless, while clouds of shame and regret swirled like a tornado over me. Jill, of course, was cool as a cucumber, and I imagine her fiercely determined presence was palpable in every nook and cranny of that court house. She hightailed it off to chat with the DA just before the judge entered; no more than three minutes passed before she returned, a satisfied smile on her face. “Okay, this is good,” she said. My inner dialogue sounded something like, “GOOD? How good? Do you mean sort of good, but sort of bad? Do you actually mean REALLY BAD?! Oh god, that’s what you mean, isn’t it?!”
When she told me that the DA would completely dismiss my case if I did only a few hours of community service, I thought she was joking. How on earth could that deal have been reached in less than three minutes?! Was she a wizard?! (Short answer: yes. I am convinced.) I asked her to clarify what “dismissed” meant about six times.
In rapid fashion, I did the appallingly simple things the DA had asked of me. Within 30 minutes of our return to court last week, Jill had conferred with the DA, my charge was completely dismissed, and the records were sealed. I can’t remember the last time I felt such an overwhelming gratitude.
I wrote this review for Jill because I hope others can know what it’s like to truly be heard and respected by your attorney. I’ll definitely be keeping in touch with her. Thank you, THANK YOU, Jill :)

Ms. Jackson is 100% on top of the technical aspects and manages to be very personable and informative at the same time. In my case, the judge picked at every form, every notice, every submission, looking for a reason to deny our requests but it was all completely taken care of.
If you want an attorney that handles the little details as well as the big ones, communicates with you throughout the process, answers any question you have, and manages to really treat you like a person throughout the process you should hire Jill Jackson. You will not be disappointed!

For the first time in my life I found myself in a legal bind. The case itself was bogus, and being charged was complete shock to me. I did go to court by myself only to find that I lack the knowledge to navigate the system. I was “generously” offered a 6 month supervised probation with a whole slew of time-consuming classes and evaluations. Worst of all, the case could affect my custody of my daughter.
I did not qualify for assistance with legal representation. Jill was one of the few dozen lawyers on the list that the legal office hands out. Hiring her was based on her excellent and, as it turns out, well deserved reviews.
I found Jill to be personable and understanding, very knowledgeable, organized and well liked by all court staff. She gave me sound recommendations and legal advice, and communicated with me frequently.
Hiring her was the best decision I’ve made, as an extremely stressful desperate situation turned into something manageable with a clear end in sight.
Jill got my case dismissed and the records sealed. I am forever grateful for her hard work and support during this stressful and confusing time.
I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for effective legal representation!

Before hiring Jill I went and consulted with 8 lawyers, she blew them away with her attitude and ability to be human. She listened to the facts and then made her own judgement, what others didn’t. Along with being easy to talk to by keeping the human part intact, she is one in a million. Can’t go wrong with Jill, she is always on top of everything.

I am so glad I met Jill at the time I needed legal help. She was such a pleasure to work with – kind, easy going, good listener, calm, patient, compassionate, sensitive, professional and intelligent. She is dedicated and diligent; was always prompt returning calls and emails; was always available and easy to communicate with. Jill has such an amazing personality! I could just go on with all the compliments which she truly deserves. She resolved my case in a timely manner and the outcome totally exceeded my expectations in the most positive way.
Jill was very affordable compared to all other attorneys I called and that was very critical to our family. She also helped find a very affordable attorney for my spouse. Jill worked out miracles and what could have been a harsher and longer punishment, turned into a much lesser conviction. She turned my DV charge into just a “petty” offense which only cost me $10 in court fees versus hundreds of dollars. And because I did not end up going through probation and supervision, she saved me additional $800 at a minimum. Therefore, thanks to Jill, my family spent way less money on all legal expenses than we would have had to pay if I didn’t have such an awesome attorney like Jill.
I wish I could give her a million stars instead of just five. She truly deserves the best recognition and I definitely recommend Jill to those who seek legal help in criminal matters. I found myself in a very unfamiliar and uncomfortable situation, but thanks to Jill, it got resolved so quickly and painlessly with the outcome I could not even dream of. I felt so comfortable with Jill like she was a lifelong friend rather than a stranger. It was a blessing I found her!
If I will ever need legal advice, Jill will be the first person I will reach out to. Highly, highly recommend her!!!

I hired Jill Jackson to assist me with sealing a record. I was unsure about the process but after a few meetings with Jill, I felt confident that having her represent me was in my best interest. Jill took the time to explain the process making sure that I understood. Her calm demeanor and knowledge in the law made a stressful situation easier to handle. She kept me informed in every step of the process providing a time scale of when completion for the request would be and was very diligent during her information gathering process. Jill is a knowledgeable, professional and competent attorney that I would hire again for any legal need.

It is never an easy process when you consider whether you need to hire an attorney. I hired Jill Jackson for a traffic violation case including results of serious bodily injury, which is a scary situation to find yourself in. Jill handled my case with the sensitivity and professionalism needed. I never had to worry about the status of my case because Jill kept me informed the entire time. Jill’s experience and know-how put my mind at ease. And to no surprise with Jill leading my case, I had great results. I highly recommend you give Jill a call!

Jill represented a family member of mine in a criminal matter. Though the case may have appeared simple at first glance, there were complicated family dynamics in play that could potentially have influenced the case.
Jill took the time to listen to all the members of the family and interested parties, and always gave kind, caring, yet legally relevant advice. Jill always answered the phone, or texted back almost immediately when she wasn't available to speak. She never made me feel rushed, or that I was imposing on her time. From start to end, Jill handled the case as if she was a member of the family, and I could tell she really cared.
On top of all that, when we were in the courtroom, she handled the DA and Judge expertly. She knew the law, but also how to work with the opposing council to achieve an outcome that was in the best interest of my family member.
I've worked with a few lawyers in my life, and Jill, in my opinion, worked harder, listened better, was more available, and ultimately achieved more than any other lawyer I have worked with. I recommend Jill without hesitation, and will hire her again in the future if I ever need legal advice.

I interviewed six attorneys before deciding on Jill to represent me in my DV case. I selected Jill to represent me because of her confidence and her experience with criminal defense law. Jill listened with no judgment; her only thought/purpose was how to get me through a very terrible situation and get me the best possible resolution.
Jill, was always in communication, said what she was going to do, and was a great negotiator with the prosecutor in my case. As a result, I accepted a deferred judgment when it appeared the house of cards was stacked against me!
So notable, that the judge said, "I have NEVER heard of this recommended by the prosecution in all my years on the bench." I appreciate Jill so much and I recommend her…she was excellent!!!

Very respectable and easy to talk to. It was my first DUI and I've never been in the court system before. She cared about my case and cared about me. It was nice to have someone backing me up that takes pride in what she does. Thank you Jill for what you did for me.
