Reviews

I absolutely recommend Jesse A. Verdin Law Offices! From the very beginning, Mr. Verdin was such a lifesaver. He was always there for me, answering my questions, explaining things clearly, and even dealing with my crazy questions with a smile. I felt so heard and understood throughout the entire process. My cousin raved about him after her divorce, and now I understand why! He truly made a difficult situation so much easier to handle. I'm so grateful for his expertise, his kindness, and his professionalism. I'm confident that with Mr. Verdin's guidance, I'll come out of this stronger than ever. Thank you so much, Mr. Verdin!
Mr. Verdin was an incredible advocate and advisor throughout my divorce from start to finish. I felt that I could entrust him with every aspect of my case, and came to greatly value his advice. He was able to foresee and address issues with support payments, critical stipulations, property valuations, etc. before they became problems, which made the process a lot smoother than I thought it could be. He always explained everything that came up, what my options were, and what the possible outcomes were so that I was able to express my wishes. I also appreciated that he respected my time and kept communications focused on what was important. I would highly recommend his services to anyone.
Be warned about this individual – he is truly deceitful. I provided half of the retainer for an RFO years ago, and he accomplished absolutely nothing. He claimed the money was used for his "reviewing" of my paperwork. Highly doubtful. Attempting to reach him was an exercise in futility. His receptionist consistently stated he was "unavailable." However, when a friend of mine called in as a prospective new client, Verdin was immediately available and eager to engage. This behavior is both unprofessional and unacceptable. Proceed with extreme caution.
Jesse is a thoughtful and experienced family law attorney that has single-handedly turned around a very complex case for custody of my 8 year old son. I did not have even close to enough time with my child and Jesse didn't just blindly ask me to follow his advice to get more time. He provided a perspective on the law I had never considered: What the law says and how it's applied can vary greatly depending on the circumstances and/or context of a case. We needed our strategy to capture how the law would be applied in my case and not myopically consider the technical details of how the law is written. This was to me, a moment of clarity and furthermore, a concept that had not ever been successfully explained to me by any attorney except Jesse in more than 8 years of fighting for custody. He explained what was happening, why it was happening and what I should do or not do. This is exactly where his 31 years of experience became so incredibly valuable and why I went from 0 overnights during the week and only 2 overnights on my weekends to now; picking up my son directly after school on Thursday and then having uninterrupted custody through Monday morning when I drop him back off at school. I even have Thursday to Friday morning when its my ex's weekend. That's an increase of 6 overnights a month! This result came about from an exchange Jesse had with the judge during a status update which is just extraordinary. I waited eight years to finally be able to pick up and drop my son off from school. Jesse got that for both me and my son. Now I can help my my little boy with his homework and we're so much closer. I'm spending time working him with on both his social and educational development. We can finally go on extended trips to see family or even go on mini vacations. These are the direct results from hiring Jesse and then simply following his legal advice. In the past 8 years I have tried a few different attorneys and I am grateful for all their work. However, if I had found Jesse when my custody issues first started then I would've had so much more time with my son. I never take for granted having Jesse as my family law attorney. I couldn't give a higher recommendation: Hire Jesse Verdin to achieve the best result possible in your family law case and also, for the piece of mind benefit that comes from his client focused style. He is simply THE BEST!
Mr. Verdin is smart, calm, analytical and generous with his time. I emailed him on a Sunday afternoon just to ask about a consultation and he called me up almost immediately and we spoke for almost an hour. He isn't going to take my case for good reason but I can't tell you how invaluable his insights and advice were. I have worked with many attorneys in my professional as well as personal life and he will leave a firm, positive imprint in my memory. A winner all the way.
