The client wanted to move to another State to be closer to her parents. The Father was exercising his time sharing, had a strong bond with the child, paid child support, and was objecting to the move. Jessica was able to present a schedule to the Court that would give the Father the same amount of overnights as he already had, and that the move was in the child’s best interest. The Court granted the relocation.

The Husband left the Client for a much younger woman after over 30 years of marriage. He moved out and stopped paying the very expensive mortgage. He promptly made sure he earned less money and claimed he could not afford the bills. Jessica presented evidence that the Husband has always paid the mortgage and was conveniently under employed. The Court ordered that he pay approximately $4,000.00 per month in temporary support.

The Client had numerous attorneys prior to hiring Jessica. He was already in a very bad position with an injunction prohibiting him from seeing his daughter, having already been held in contempt and in serious debt for unpaid support. Jessica steadily turned the case around: the injunction was dissolved, time sharing was increased, child support was reduced, and the Former Wife was held in contempt.

The Client was accused of child abuse by his girlfriend’s ex-husband. After a lengthy and technical evidentiary hearing that centered on whether or not the Court would allow children to testify in court and whether or not the Court admit child hearsay evidence, the Court ruled in favor of the Client and Denied the Injunction.

The client was accused of approaching a child in a private area of a public place and behaving inappropriately. A condition of the Client’s probation was “no unsupervised contact with children.” Jessica successfully argued to the prosecutor that “unsupervised contact” was too vague and the State could not prove that the allegations constituted “unsupervised contact.” The State recommended a dismissal of the violation and the Court followed that recommendation.

Officers reported that the client, a young woman, had battered her boyfriend in an act of revenge and jealousy. They alleged that there were numerous witnesses and injuries were incurred by the alleged victim. Jessica obtained photos of the client’s injuries and established that she was about half the size if the alleged victim and that there were actually no eye witnesses whatsoever. The State dropped the case before it was even filed.
