In a very desperate and hopeless situation I called Ms. Jillian Morris after many others. I just wanted to be heard not ignored. From the very first minute I felt that I could trust her and from that moment on my life changed for better. Ms. Morris is extremely professional, smart, confident and assertive. She does her research and is always prepared. While working full time I had this peace of mind that I am in good hands, and to me that was priceless. In every court we had to appear she presented me with such grace and wisdom and I could not be happier about my choice or the result. I am very grateful to Ms. Morris and her amazing associates.

Jillian has been critical in closing my case successfully. She used the right judgment, had the right instincts navigating complex situation. When needed pulled other team members and other resources and balanced entire case effectively. She has lots of potential and is a very hard worker. Dedicated and committed to act on the values of her profession.

I was referred to Mrs Jillian by a friend about a year ago. First day I met her my immediate feel was comfort. She has been very detail oriented, typing in as much info about the case as possible on every consultation. She and her team were very responsive to questions, comments I had about my case. It was very comforting and confidence building. She was very efficient on her timing. For example, her final case preparation is perfectly timed so that she has all her brain for the case by the time of the court date. She is aiming for an absolute WIN. Her insight about family law is pretty deep. But she doesn’t stop there. She and her team do an intensive research into the case and also about similar cases. They have a culture of team input so that your case is analyzed from different angles, perspectives and persons. By putting me somewhere b/n client and family, she really instilled a sense of confidence , moral, and hope in me during those though times. I would say her best quality is how she lays out the case in court step by step, supported by documents and evidence in a very calm but very powerful and persuasive way. She scored best outcome for my case and she did excellent in negotiating on my behalf in a very pragmatic and chess master level of game plan. I am so thankful to my friend who recommended her to me, Mrs Jillian and team. I wish you luck and success on your case with Jillian !!

I was referred to Jillian when I was looking for an experienced, but reasonably-priced attorney to handle my divorce, including making arrangements for child support and child custody. She was a pleasure to deal with (during an overall unpleasant experience!) and had a lot of suggestions based on her experience that were extremely helpful and prevented issues from arising later. There were a lot of things I didn't realize I needed to think about, such as who would claim our children as dependents for tax purposes, that Jillian thought of and resolved up-front. I would definitely recommend her.
