Gail Bowers
Cary and her entire team were extremely helpful and always very responsive to my many questions and concerns throughout the divorce process. They have a way of putting your mind at ease when you feel stressed. I highly recommend her team to get you through a difficult time with their expert knowledge, professionalism and total support and understanding.
Meredith Mesa
Cary is the best!! I would highly recommend her. I hired Cary to be my divorce attorney back in 2015. She was always available when I had a question, was extremely responsive to e-mails and because of her I got the best possible custody outcome while managing to stay out of court. I will be forever grateful for all of her guidance and hard work. A few years later I got re-married and asked Cary to draft our wills. She truly is a gem and I promise you won’t regret hiring her to be your attorney!!

Cary and her team have been caring, efficient, and knowledgeable. Services were tailored to my needs to give me exactly the support I wanted for my amicable divorce. I even got recommendations of other professionals for financial matters, so that I could get expert help all around. Simply the best.
Staria Alexander
Jacobson Family Law provides helpful, professional, and, as advertised, drama-free resolution. My former husband and I were most pleased with Cary’s high degree of empathy, lack of bias, and warmth towards both of us. We were able to draft and execute a custody agreement that best met our child’s needs and allows for us to successfully and happily co-parent. Cary never pressured us to add anything to our agreement that made us feel uncomfortable, and she ensured the atmosphere surrounding a challenging situation remained nothing but peaceful. I highly recommend her and the Jacobson Family Law team.

The past year has been an unexpected whirlwind of challenges working through a divorce with many twists and turns. I researched various Lawyers and am very grateful that I decided to work with Cary and her team. Cary’s confidence and knowledge was reassuring, laid a solid foundation, and effectively addressed all situations that arose. Her family first & avoid unnecessary drama approach moved the case forward with ease and prevented decisions that could cause unintended adverse effects down the line. Her compassionate demeanor, balanced with candid, matter of fact direction helped make decisions more swift and easy. Cary is an effective listener, processes complex information with ease, and communicates with clarity. She and her paralegal team (Alexa) were consistently proactive, responsive, and available. Her fees are fair for the quality of service, care, and results that you will receive. Not only did my family get through the divorce case with less turmoil than what could have been expected, we completed this in a timely manner so everyone can now focus on moving forward in the next chapter in our lives. Thank you Cary and Team.
