About
I practiced labor and employment law for the City of Detroit from December, 1973 through August 1990 and for Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Michigan (BCBSM) from September 1990 through March 2010, when I retired from corporate practice. When I left the City of Detroit, I was the Director of Litigation, where in addition to my labor and employment practice, I supervised all litigation in the Law Department. From there, I became the chief labor and employment attorney for BCBSM. I retired from BCBSM and opened a solo law practice. I continue to practice labor and employment law, mostly representing who believe themselves victims of ilegal discrimination. On ocasion I handle traditional labor matters. I expanded my areas of concentration to include family law and probate law. I enjoy litigation and counseling of clients. I am active in the community and with my church. I am happily married to my wife of 43 years, a retired nursing professor. We have 2 children and 4 grandchildren.

Frank was exceptional. He was responsive and thorough in his review of a consulting contract that I received from a potential partner. I wouldn’t hestitste hiring Frank again for any employment-contract related services.
Frank listened to my issues and gave me a few options. He had me look at what the facts are and gave me time to think about my situation. I truly appreciate his wise guideance and support.
My former employer tried to prevent me from ever working in my field because of a no compete clause. My former employer also sued me for breach of contract, asking for more than 100K in damages. Mr. Jackson forced the employer to drop the lawsuit and allowed me to work in my field by pointing out the no compete clause was illegal. He gives incredible attention to detail, and puts forth his all for his clients. I am a witness to that. I was really upset and frazzled by the sordid affair, and Mr. Jackson was unshakeable and calm. He fought for me and won! I am eternally grateful.
I've work with Frank on more than one occasion. Each time I found him to know and understand the law specific for each case. He guides you through the process in a way that makes you feel comfort with your journey through the legal system. Frank will break down the law so that you understand what the situation is, in laymen terms. One of the most important aspects of Frank's practice, is that he listens. He listens and allow you to be part of his strategic plan. From time to time there may be a disagreement or two. He can be very frank with you and stubborn on a point (usually for your own good, although you may not know it at the time). However, at the end of the day, Frank let you know that, he works for you! For most people entering a legal challenge, cost is the second most important item when engaging a lawyer. Frank certainly understand that and will work with you to ease that burden. At the end of the day, Frank is an affordable lawyer, who does excellent work, and I wouldn't hesitate to use Frank in the future.
Excellent, knowledgeable and experienced attorney. Courteous and listens. I highly recommend!
I hired Frank Jackson to represent me against a disgruntled employee who reported me to the Michigan Unemployment Agency. Attorney Jackson advised and represented me during this time and the case ended in my favor. Attorney Jackson is very tenacious and diligent in his representation and I recommend him highly.
Frank is always available for his client. He takes the time to listen and assess the situation. He gives honest feedback. His focus is servicing his clients well rather than just making money. He sees all cases and situations through until the end.
Frank was instrumental in assuring documentation for employee performance was provided by the leadership regarding a gap in expectations and outcomes of the employee. This guidance for leadership allowed for a less problematic resolution to a multi-year issue that had been passed on from department to department. He held people accountable for their roles and reduced risk for the company. Franks professionalism and focus kept the process on track. The goal to transition a low performing employee out of the company occurred timely and was handled in a most respectful manner.
Mr.Jackson, is a very aggressive in the courtroom, professional, an a outstanding attorney. I would recommend him to anyone looking to win your case. Mr. Jackson was willing to work with me on payments, witch really helps out a lot. Thank you Mr Jackson for everything you have done for me
In life you never know what situations you may face which will require the need for a lawyer. I was in a situation feeling like my sentence from a bad choice was now LIFE! After my initial consult with Mr. Jackson I felt confident with immediate relief that all would be well as he sought me to help my total being knowing that my next actions would affect everyone around me. He me aware of every step in the process, provided encouragement and offered nuggets of wisdom. I am overjoyed with my results, wiser in my choices and living a happier life. I couldn't have made a better choice.
