My ex wife and I have been divorced for 4 years last year. In our divorce decree it stated the custody schedule would be re-evaluated once my son had entered the 1st grade. It went from seeing him once every other Saturday to me having my son every other weekend. Once we transitioned into this new schedule it was suggested that we would review the schedule after six months to see how my has son reacted. Six months later, it was suggested that my ex and I should have 50/50 custody. After hearing this my ex stormed off and everything went downhill. My ex believes that my values, concerns, and judgement are insignificant. She didn't like my wife or my stepchildren. She would come to my house in a hostile manner and show this behavior in front of my son as well as my stepchildren. She kept accusing my family of abusing my son. She kept my son away from me and would tell him the worst things possible about me. I attended two mediation sessions with her and she practically wanted me to give up my rights. There was no reasoning with her. So I hopped online and found Arn family law. After talking to Jessica, she made me feel confident and secure that I will be able to get more time with my son. She also assured me that I would have a written schedule that would help eliminate the stress that I was enduring. After my ex was served she hires one of the most expensive law firms in Howard County. I wanted shared custody and my ex countered and wanted sole custody of our son. I was nervous because my ex and I had polar opposite views, but Jessica reassured me that everythimg would be fine. Before our mediation with Jessica pretty much gave me realistic expectations of the session. If the mediation went right then we wouldn't have to go to court. Everyone was tired, but my ex was still resistant. Her lawyer advices her that if she wouldn't agree then we would have to go to court and waste money and time. Jessica had my best interest in mind as well as my sons. When it seemed like my ex would lie, Jessica was able to find the truth. Fathers usually lose a lot in these cases and are overlooked. Jessica ensured that I would get realistic expectations and fight for my rights as a father. You would think once court documents were signed the madness would stop. However, my ex thinks she's above our court orders and refused to follow them. I contacted Jessica again and she follwed up with my ex's attorney. Let's just say my ex has no problem following our court orders now.

Sometimes life comes at you with a kick to the head. We hope it never will but so,etimes it just does. When that happens you need someone with the same values and integrity you have plus knows what to do and how to do it. I lucked into having Jessica represent me. Jessica's expertise and commitment to me was the difference in bringing a bad situation to conclusion. Hopefully by making this recommendation, others will be able to find Jessica and get the same support without resorting to luck!

She kept me informed and up to date on the status of my case at all times. She demonstrated a dedication to her profession and the work she was doing for me. Ms. Zadjura was respectful, kind and compassionate at all times. I would highly recommend her and would do so with complete confidence that she would provide the same quality services to anyone she might represent.

I enlisted Ms. Zadjura's services for my divorce, and again several years later for a custody/child support modification. Not only is she easy to talk to, but also very knowledgeable and hard-working. She was thorough in working on my case and presenting various options we could pursue. I never felt rushed when communicating with her, and she always kept me apprised of all goings-on in a timely manner. In the event I ever need an attorney for a family law matter again, she will be my first call.

From the first time I met with Jessica concerning my divorce, I felt very much at ease that I made the right decision to retain her services. Her level of expertise and desire to answer all my questions confidently was exactly what I had expected and received every single time I communicated with her. Jessica was always prompt when responding to my emails and always fair in her advice and legal guidance.

Having Jessica Zadjura represent me in my divorce was the best decision under difficult circumstances. From the first meeting to discuss my case, she became my advisor and partner and did not waiver despite the challenges with my ex. It was a complex divorce as a business was involved, and Jessica used her expertise and knowledge to uncover details, give wise advice, and truly advocate for my future. My children's needs were constantly addressed throughout the entire process. Her genuine concern for my needs was never in question and her professionalism remained intact. She is highly regarded among her peers and a respected attorney with any judge we encountered. I would absolutely recommend Jessica to anyone who needs a smart, savvy, kind, and respectful attorney.

Jessica Zadjura represented me in divorce court in 2011 from an abusive spouse whom I had just recently married. My ex had made a public threat against me on social media and I was in fear of my safety so decided not to come home. The next day I went with my mom to get my stuff and a woman was leaving our apartment. Jessica was able to convince this woman to represent me in court against my ex even though she at first had said she didn’t want to b/c she was also by now in fear of him even though they were no longer at this time. My ex had vacated our apartment after saying he would be responsible for the bills, the landlord was pursuing me b/c of my ex vacating. Jessica was able to get the landlord to agree to go after my ex b/c she successfully prove adultery and abuse in our relationship. The landlord accepted that had my ex not been abusive I would not have vacated our apartment. When my ex left he stole several valuable items from me that he had refused to allow me to take when I had gone back to get my stuff on a second trip, he had changed the locks preventing me access. He left the apartment in “an unsanitary condition” that caused concern for the health safety of other tenants and the landlord b/c of Jessica agreed to go after my ex rather than me not just for the rent owed but also for the damages done to the apartment. Had it not been for Jessica representing me in court in 2011 I still probably would be legally married to this man as he was unwilling to participate in the divorce proceedings. During cross examination in the divorce trial Jessica not only had his previous girlfriend whom he had cheated on me with testify but she also got my ex to admit to having cheated on me with five other women during three and a half months since we’d been married. If you are looking for an exceptional attorney to help you out of a difficult divorce with a partner who is unwilling to allow you to move on with your life I strongly recommend retaining her. She is a valuable partner in your corner and a force to be reckoned with in the court room. I am eternally grateful to her for all the hours she put in on my case and her allowing me to get out of a bad situation with little more than charged up credit cards that he had created without my knowledge and charged up. I was told I’d have to pursue him in civil court and that would cost me money and there was no promise that he would ever pay it. So I didn’t mind taking that loss considering all the other things Jessica was able to help me get out of including marriage to someone who had fooled me so well.
