Ms. Jacobson has handled several cases for me, and I was appalled when I saw she had some negative reviews I was shocked, and am betting they had unrealistic expectations. My first case was a traffic ticket and I had admitted to the officer that I was late and knew I was speeding. She got me down from 35+ over to less than 10 over and court supervision, even though they had me dead to rights. I learned and kept my mouth shut when they pulled me over for DUI, didn't blow, called SC right away, She got me on supervision again, and because I called so fast, got my paperwork on file and got me unsuspended for not blowing, even though I was still on it from speeding 35 over. I deserved to have sky high insurance rates and convictions, but she saved me from myself. A+

Mrs. Jacobson has been representing me in traffic court since 2014 and she takes care of everything in a very timely manner no matter how many speeding tickets I get in every county. she has a very good attitude as well! Both attorneys stay in good communication by mail and in person, letting me know what's going to happen in court before we go in every time. They are flexible with payments making it easy for me to afford the costs of my stupidity.

Ms. Jacobson did nothing in my case and avoided defending me at all costs.....in a criminal misdemeanor case she was totally worthless and I got screwed she chose to plead the case out instead of challenging the case all the way.......It cost me almost a year and half of my life in time and money that should have been spent on preparing for the case and for my defense.......She did not want to defend her clients and it cost the clients plenty.........AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!

When I first called at Sreenan and Cain I was excited because I had heard great things about Christopher Derango. The receptionist was polite enough to send me over to Christopher's secretary. His secretary sent me over to Miss Jacobson's office since I had a traffic ticket and my first DUI. I had my initial consultation and was excited and had great faith she would help me out and get me results that were acceptable. This was far from the case. My first and biggest complaint is lack of communication. Her secretary Lisa didn't know anything about me, she acted as if I was a non-existent client and a disturbance to her, and was very very rude. She talked to me like I was a child and was just completely disrespectful. Miss Jacobson was very nice, however she just didn't handle my case properly. She basically sat there and let the state's attorney decide how the case went without even fighting for me, and she never talked to me about what I personally had in mind and which angle I would rather take. Overall I'd choose a different law firm. I'm sure the other attorneys are great, but with the amount of disrespect I got from Miss Jacobson's secretary and the poor results I got from Miss Jacobson as an attorney, I don't plan on spending one more pretty penny there.
