What Our Clients Are Saying
“Can’t imagine too many people enjoying having to engage a family law group but when needed you can’t afford to settle for anything but the best. Jessica, Jane’s associate attorney, continues to prove to be what every client should be looking for—responsive, respectful, understanding, and compassionate while never losing site of tenaciously and aggressively pursuing her client’s objectives. A single dad, fighting all the usual uphill battles, Jessica has never let me down. Diligently fighting and more importantly winning! Over the last couple years, Jessica has been monumental in successfully pursuing my custody objectives. I can’t thank her enough. She has an amazing mentor in Jane, the two of them are certainly a champion team.”
—Chris P.

A Certified Family Law Specialist, or CFLS, is an attorney who has obtained certification in the standards of California family law and demonstrated optimal legal competence. Attorneys who obtain this certification have specific expertise in all aspects of family law, which includes divorce or the dissolution of marriage, child and spousal support, child custody, and temporary restraining orders, among other areas of emphasis.
Not every attorney practicing family law has obtained this certification. In fact, the designation remains relatively rare—there are fewer than 2,000 CFLS attorneys in California and fewer than 200 in San Diego.
When you work with JWB Family Law, you can rest assured that your personal family situation and concerns are being handled by a team that has the specialization and expertise you need to bring your issues to resolution.
