If I could give 10 stars I would! When Jackie says “she’s got this” and winks at you, trust her! I brought her a very complicated, unique case and she took and presented it very well at a hearing. I knew she was great, but very impressive today ;) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Catrina Melkowski2024-06-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
