I hired Jackie for my divorce and child custody case, and I am so glad that I did. She is the best of the best. From our very first meeting, Jackie was extremely approachable, understanding, compassionate, and so reassuring. My case became extremely difficult and messy and Jackie was always there to guide me and answer any questions I had. She was very responsive to calls and emails. She was extremely knowledgeable, professional, organized, thorough, honest, and always prepared. I trusted her to only communicate when necessary - she didn’t want to waste my time or my money. I felt heard and supported through every step of the process. I felt like she truly cared about the best interests of my child and me and fought to get the best possible outcome for us. I hired Jackie again post judgment for additional child custody issues, and again, she did not disappoint. Jackie is simply a rockstar. She went above and beyond both times that I needed her, and I will forever be grateful for the huge role she played during such a difficult and challenging time of my life. I truly feel as if I could not have gotten through my divorce and child custody case, and received the outcome that I did, without Jackie by my side. Not only is she an amazing attorney, but she’s a wonderful person. I would highly recommend her to any of my loved ones. I would 1,000% use her again as my attorney in the future if necessary - I honestly wouldn’t want to be represented by anyone but her. Thank you, Jackie!

Jackie was able to help me though a difficult time in my life. She separated my emotions from the fact that I needed to take care of my own interests. We started the process before the pandemic and were able to work through the many hurdles it presented. I would highly recommend her.

I went to Jackie nervous, as it was the first time I had ever seeked legal advice. From that first day in her office she was very reassuring. She patiently answered every question I had; as well as prompted me to start thinking about scenarios that had not yet crossed my mind. I can’t thank her enough; as the comfort that first day continued throughout the entire duration I had hired her. Her dependability, prompt responses, and how well organized she was gave me the confidence that I could rely on her to handle any matter. Any question that I thought was silly to ask she never made me feel that way, while thoroughly answering and helping direct me. I truly know she helped me stay strong and level headed throughout my divorce. While I hope to never find myself in that situation again I am so grateful I was able to have her on my side and would happily recommend her to anybody I love. She honestly cares for her clients and it shows in her dedicated work; Thank you Jackie!

Let me start by saying that I cannot recommend Jackie enough to ANYONE that needs an attorney, especially during a divorce. Divorces are very emotional, difficult processes and having Jackie at my side is the one thing that kept me sane. She helped me stay focused and level-headed. Additionally, I felt that she truly cared about my situation, my family and fighting for what I wanted. If you're going into a divorce, especially with children, you need Jackie at your side.

Jackie was worth every, very expensive, penny! My divorce case was ugly, messy and challenging and she dove right in without hesitation. Her knowledge and passion for justice gives her the upper hand to fight for her clients. She is tough and understood my rights and was always willing to fight as hard as necessary to get me what I deserved. Her communication was great and she thoroughly explained my options during the process of things, while at the same time respecting my decisions and allowing me to feel like ultimately I had say in the matter. She is overly organized (and I say that as a good thing) and as her client I felt more than prepared going into every important meeting. She was also accommodating during this world-wide COVID pandemic, by making herself available during unusual hours if necessary and assisting with everything being done virtually or electronically. In the end, I would say overall I got everything I wanted out of my divorce case as well as child custody and support. You get what you pay for. I would recommend her to anyone!

I hired Jackie for my divorce. Going through a divorce is very difficult but felt Jackie was the best attorney I could have worked with. She provided me with great advice throughout the divorce and custody negotiations. I really appreciated how prompt Jackie was in her responses. She was great about returning my many calls and emails. She was always professional. Jackie is very detailed with her notes and her advice. She was always aware of the specifics of my case each time we talked. I was very happy with her services and would highly recommend Jackie.

Jacquelyn Dupler is absolutely the best lawyer you could ask for. She is kind and smart and patient and fantastic at her job. She is thorough and thoughtful and treats every client with the dignity and respect they deserve. She can make an awful situation a little less awful by being not only your counsel but also advocating for you in every way she can. She is a good human and a wonderful lawyer. I could not recommend her more.

Jackie helped me through what was not only an extremely contentious divorce process and trial, but also one of the most difficult times in my life. Simply put, she is a rockstar. From our first phone call, she was always compassionate, kind, and had the utmost concern for my family's safety, well-being, and happiness. While I know I was not her only client at the time, I would have sworn I was because our conversations and meetings were never rushed and she always took the time to make sure we were on the same page. Her work quality is top-notch, and I was always amazed at how prepared she was. There was a noticeable difference between her level of preparation compared to the opposing counsel in our case, and other lawyers I had worked with. I found her fees to be extremely reasonable and worth every penny--she obtained for me a better outcome in my trial than I had even hoped for. Simply put, Jackie is the best and I feel so blessed to have had her counsel during such a tough ordeal. I would 100% recommend her for any family-law related issue. And Jackie is definitely the only lawyer I will trust with any of my own family law related issues in the future.

Jackie was the absolute best attorney I could have ever selected when it came to my divorce case. During what was a confusing, emotional and difficult time in my life, she was an fierce ally in my corner. She was always thinking one step ahead for me and my daughter, and was always willing to explain anything I had questions on. The way that she handled my case and worked with my ex's lawyer was top notch, and she honestly helped pave the way to make me feel like I was going to be "OK" after all of this was said and done. She constantly caught things that others in this process missed and I am so thankful for her attention to detail. I give Ms. Dupler my highest praise, most sincere "thank you" and highly recommend her.
