Our mission is to provide clients with exceptional legal representation and strategic guidance in their most important matters – when the stakes are highest and losing is not an option. We accept a limited number of engagements to ensure that every client receives the time and personalized attention their matter demands.
Clients rely on our expertise, strategic guidance, and extensive courtroom experience to deliver results in high-stakes civil matters, including business disputes, personal injury claims, employment actions, and many others.
Founded by federal prosecutor Matt Jacobs, the Jacobs Law Firm expertly guides clients through all phrases of grand jury investigations and regulatory enforcement actions. We know how best to prevent prosecutions, resolve pending actions, and defeat charges at trial.
From years of criminal trial experience, we understand how criminal cases are built and won. We know what it takes to effectively cross-examine witnesses, deconstruct the prosecution’s case, make compelling arguments to judges, and – most importantly – persuade juries.
Appellate success requires exceptional written and oral advocacy skills and the ability to master case facts and relevant law. Our appellate record is outstanding. We have briefed, argued and secured numerous high-profile victories on appeal.
To achieve the best possible results for our clients, we combine the expertise of a large national law firm with the highly personalized focus of an elite litigation boutique.
