Exceptional discretion, speed, and professionalism When the best attorneys do their work well, you never hear about it. Their cases don't make headlines. Problems are handled quickly and quietly, with total discretion, protecting a client's reputation, career, and family along the way. I had the opportunity to work alongside Julia Jayne while supporting a mutual client, and that was exactly my experience. She stepped into a highly sensitive legal situation and handled it with impressive professionalism, urgency, and care. The matter was resolved efficiently and thoughtfully, without unnecessary exposure or disruption to the client's personal or professional life. What stood out most to me was Julia's judgment. She combines strong legal skill with a calm, strategic presence that immediately puts people at ease. She understood not only the legal complexity of the situation, but the very real human stakes involved. She navigated both with clarity and precision. Throughout the process, she was responsive, grounded, and clearly committed to protecting her client's best interests. If you are looking for an attorney who delivers results without drama, values privacy, and operates at the highest professional level, I recommend Julia Jayne without hesitation. read more

Julia is such a nice person. Although she never took my case, she spent time and made the effort to connect me with the right people that would take care of me, and never once mentioned it. Did she have to ? No. But in a world full of money hungry lawyers, that nickel and dime you for every second, Julia stands out with her integrity. Would never hesitate to hire her if I ever had to. Thank you Julia for making sure I have the right team, truly appreciated. read more

Jayne was professional, responsive but most of all very empathetic to my friend's situation. Her quick actions helped resolve a very difficult situation. I am tremendously impressed with the results. My friend is completely relieved that she selected Jayne to help them and we both highly recommend Jayne to navigate a very unexpected incident. read more

Thank you Julia!!! She was helping me over the phone with out any commission, super grateful to find her and thanks for the help. She just a honest attorney. The best. Thanks again read more

After what seems like 1 million years - but was merely 2 - my work with Julia Jayne has come to a close. I may never know how to properly thank her for everything she has done for me and given to me, including my life back, she is the kind of attorney that goes above and beyond. She cares about you. She cares about your story, she truly wants to be of any help she can when you're facing perhaps the worst time of your life. To keep it short, having Julia represent you is not a decision you will regret read more

Julia is the best attorney I've had this review is way overdue. I should have left this review 9 years ago when she helped me out. She saved my life literally. I had a pretty complex case going on she was able to resolve this issue with minimum consequences. read more

When you need a criminal lawyer, you are basically at the mercy of their competence and commitment. Nobody knows everything..she knows law. Julia is terrific about answering questions by email and phone calls which is really important to me. She has good resources will refer to them when she does not know something. She was a good choice and the person she defended agrees. read more

I cannot praise the work of and experience working with Julia Jayne highly enough. I found her responsive, friendly and professional in all my contact with her. She always acknowledged me, and even when she was busy, she always responded by email, and followed up when necessary. I would heartily recommend working with her if you can. read more

I never thought I would be in a position where I'd need a lawyer, as I was involved in a crazy case which I was not at fault. I contacted Julia and she guided me through the process, answered all my questions and constantly was there for me. Julia kept me up to date with the case, was attentive to all the details I provided to her, knowledgeable and always positive. Julia is an excellent professional, reliable, and a very charismatic person, I can't thank her enough for all her help and support! She is the attorney you can trust. read more

Julia Mezhinsky Jayne and her firm went above and beyond in handling my case. She personally kept me informed  and well represented throughout all the proceedings. Responses to all inquiries or concerns were swift and handled in the most professional and kind manner. Julia had been a beacon of hope and compassion during this stressful and emotional time. Rest assured, she did her best to get the best possible outcome. I highly recommend Jayne Law Group should you need any legal assistance. read more

This is an easy 5 star rating - first off, let me just address if you are reading this, then like me, you were in need of legal consultation. So, with that, let me tell you how increadible Julia was and the Jayne Law Group. I needed consultation for an incident and sent an inquiry on a Sunday via their 24/7 phone line - it was a message service, but they took my info and within the hour (on a Sunday before xmas!!), Julia got back to me. Her advice was exactly what i needed to 1) address my questions about my incidient with such clear advice and counsel, 2) ensure that I could do what I needed without incurring any needless attorney's fees, and 3) gave me that peace of mind that I had support. She was so helpful, so thoughtful, and so timely, which when engaged in anything legal is so critical for not only good outcomes but peace of mind. I can not recommend them/her enough. So if you have now finished this review, then simply contact Julia or any of the folks at Jayne Law Group now - you will be amazed and know, as I did, you have someone on your side who is an expert and cares which is exactly what is needed to navigate the overwhelmingly complex legal laybrinth! read more

Highly recommended! My case was resolved in not even half an hour after my first meeting with Atty Julia. Yes, unbelievable! She worked like lightning- aggressive and fast! I was feeling hopeless when I searched for criminal defense lawyers in my area. Upon reading the comments, my intuition told me she's the right one. She emailed me right away and we're really prompt in responding to my inquiries. At that time I've felt like she was sent to defend me (I prayed for the right one). She's honest, straightforward, witty, sharp. After talking to her, I insisted on having a consultation, I really needed to see her coz I knew in my heart she would hear me, and fought for me. Who am I anyway, a victim of heartless people, migrated from a foreign country, alone! I cried my heart out while telling my story and. the facts of my case. Julia has a big heart. She comforted me. I've felt her sincerity. She enlightened me about the procedure in the US and that she didn't see anything for me to worry about. 20 minutes after I left her office, I received numerous calls! From her! She said, Come back I will return your money. I said why?""The case is closed! I've spoke with .. " I was overwhelmed with so much emotions- grateful, vindicated, exhausted, I cried and prayed like I have never done before. Thank you Lord for sending me this person. Thank you Atty Julia. I am forever grateful. When I came back, I hugged her so tight. She saved me, my kids, my family. So my rating? Above and beyond! And Just want to add, she's beautiful! Nelcy read more

I needed a lawyer for legal advise, and I am so glad I found Jayne Law Group. I actually called around other lawyers and emailed others to get more options and opinions. Julia emailed me back within 30 minutes after I left a message at the law firm around 8pm! She gave me a detail instruction on what I needed to do in my situation because she is professional and passionate as a lawyer. If anyone of you is out there looking for legal advise and don't know where/how to start, I hope you are reading this review and call Julia right now! She is amazing and I highly recommend her ! read more

Legal advocate Julia Jayne cut directly to the chase and cleared-up the chaotic court matters that I recently faced. Julia as well, revealed the slouchy legal mis-handling and dishonest detriment that prior hired counsel had imposed on the court proceedings that I faced. Julia's case articulation, clarity, and, material organization can be summed-up with one word: Superior. I truly wanted to shout her name from the city tops after Julia championed a positive court outcome. Most Sincerely, Randy read more

Hired Julia through finding her on Yelp with glowing reviews. We did NOT use her Yelp deal, and hired her to get a case dismissed with the DA. I understand why everyone says she is easy to talk to - she has to be in order for you to hire her. Classic salesman tactics. We hired her with the understanding she was going to speak with the DA to attempt to dismiss our case. Subsequently, we were told the case was dismissed, and were thrilled. However, a week later, I received a letter in the mail stating the case went to "neighborhood courts". This is essentially admitting guilt and bargaining for community service, which we were not guilty. Julia claimed she must've "received the wrong dismissal code". It sounds like she simply talked to a clerk to see if our names were up for court, and assumed we were dismissed. After lengthy email exchanges, including a rather unprofessional remark from her, she agreed to give us back 25% of the retainer fee (less than her Yelp deal). We are still dealing with the case with new representation as Julia's service was unsatisfactory. +1 star for her email response time, otherwise it would be a 1 star review. read more

I highly recommend Julia's Jayne Law Group, she was a great professional and communicator throughout my whole case/situation. She made me feel comfortable since the first day I met her and always kept me informed about everything in regard to my case. At the end of it all, I was very pleased with my results. read more

Keeping in my usual form I only rate on three things, with as few words as possible! (for future reference): Location, Person/ People, Edible Stuff availability. For those of you who know the city, you know Jayne's office is in a prime location 4 blocks from Montgomery or Embarcadero Muni/ Bart Station. So grabbing a bite after your meeting at her office is very convenient. Attorney Julia Mezhinsky Jayne is very different than other attorney's that I had contacted during this search process. I was very surprised that she would personally answer her calls almost every time I dialed her office. I was patched through to voicemail maybe once when she was, "actually" in a meeting. That in and of itself was very impressive. When I contacted her I was dealing with a roommate that was trying to blame me for something that I had not done. I called her and she went beyond and above the call of duty to help me. Jayne was straight up, communicative, and cool headed, she strives to make magic happen without ever setting foot in a court room, and when she does, I imagine she really exceeds expectations. She was quick and responsive to my questions and didn't waste my time. Thankfully the situation with my roommate has been resolved. If I have to deal with this person ever again she will be the first person I call. There is a reason this lady has been selected as a Rising Star in the legal community 4 years in a row, she is a damn good attorney and she knows her stuff. If you have a problem do yourself a favor and call her, she will probably pickup the phone herself when you do. read more

Ms. Jayne was hired about 18 months ago to defend my grandson in a very difficult criminal case. I can honestly say Ms. Jayne did an exceptional job with his defense.She went beyond and above with her professional efforts on his behalf. Eventually she took his case to trial. Although his case did not turn out the way we had hoped, beyond hoped it would, Ms. Jayne continues to update my grandson and myself on proposed changes in the law that will work in his behalf in the near future. I would highly recommend Ms. Jayne and her law firm to anyone who is in need of a very good and energetic criminal defense attorney. Rose M. read more

Let's just say good things come in small packages. When another mutual friend who is a high profile attorney recommended Julia to me, I was a little hesitant. I wanted the best attorney I can get. My friend gave Julia a two thumbs up. When I first met Julia, you can feel the power and an aura around her. She is confident and knows all rulings around our case. Before our initial meeting, she already did all the back ground work on the case. By the time we met each other, she already had a good game plan on how to proceed based the facts discussed. The key to any court case is preparation. Julia is well prepped. She prepared us well for our initial hearing. Throughout the entire process, Julia made it very painless. Needless to say, the case was closed with no litigation to our full satisfaction. Julia was worth every penny. Good luck. Ciao!! read more

Julia is amazing. If you're in some trouble and don't hire her, then you're obviously not very smart and should be put in jail for that alone. read more

I got involved in an unfortunate case for the first time in life. I hired Julia after reading the reviews about her on yelp. I cannot thank her enough for taking of care of my case very diligently and genuinely and for being in my side like a sister in the most stressful challenge of my life . She was so understanding and truly and genuinely went above and beyond to get my case dismissed and she finally did ! It was a very difficult case and what she did for me and the outcome that I got was beyond my imagination and hopefully I may be afforded the opportunity to best express my gratitude and appreciation for what she did . I can not thank her enough . God bless her and her family. If I could give Julia more than 5 stars I would give 100. read more

Julia did an excellent job defending my son in a Federal Rico case with 11 defendants. It was a very difficult case. She was professional throughout the case and trial. She fought aggressively to the end leaving no stone unturned. She kept me updated almost daily on what was going on. And was very honest about what we could expect. Julia fought for my son like he was her own. I can't thank her enough for all her hard work and dedication. I would recommend Jayne Law Group, PC. She will fight for you! read more

Julia is the best criminal attorney I have ever hired so far. I was amazed how responsive she was whenever I needed consultation or had questions regarding my case. Literally, I would get an answer from her soon after I sent her an email or text. She was helping me with a calm and friendly attitude and handled my case professionally. I was more reassured and confident about my case with her assistance and expertise. She is such a great lawyer and negotiator. She basically took care of everything for me, and things turned out to be in the best way I could hope for!! When it comes to the best criminal lawyer, I highly recommend Julia! read more

You'll only see 5-star ratings for criminal defense attorney Julia Jayne for one reason: she's outstanding. You just won't find a criminal attorney as smart, experienced, or capable. Julia only takes criminal cases now, but I first hired her years ago when I needed a restraining order, which she won. I've since hired Julia again to deal with threats from the same person, most recently for a criminal case brought forward by the same person. Julia handled the case, and my family and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I never thought I'd have to hire a criminal attorney, but knew I'd already found the best criminal defense attorney available. I honestly don't know what I would have done without Julia, and once I hired her, I knew I'd been blessed to find the best legal representation available. If you have the misfortune to find yourself involved in a legal criminal case and you need a defense attorney, do yourself a favor and speak with Julia before you hire anyone else. You won't regret it. read more

If I could give Julia more than 5 stars I would give 1000. She did such an amazing job handling my brothers case., which was a very difficult one.

She did everything she could to get my brother the best sentence possible and succeeded ! Thank you Julia for your hard work and dedication we are forever grateful . read more

OK, so I never thought I would be in a position where I'd need a lawyer... but that red-racer sports car I bought a couple years ago got me one too many speeding tickets, and there I was facing my licence getting revoked. Thanks to reviews on yelp, I found Julia Jayne and enlisted her aid in my case. Ms. Jayne was really helpful in helping me understand the law, as it applied to my case... and what options I had for presenting my case to the DMV. Thankfully, the case had a favorable outcome. I learned a valuable lesson about speeding tickets (slow down!). Through it all, Julia was level-headed, compassionate, thoughtful, and well-prepared. She guided me through an intimidating process at a time when I really needed the help! I can honestly say that I hope I NEVER need a lawyer again, but if I ever do... I will definitely hire Julia Jayne again. read more

One word to describe Julia..AMAZING! My case was rather unique and she made the process as painless as she possibly could. Long story short, I was involved in a criminal case at which I was not at fault. I was arrested and everything, but was cited and released the same night. I consulted with Julia regarding my case which was originally misdemeanors, but was bumped up to felonies! After 3 long miserable months of worrying (not her fault, but that's how things work with San Mateo County) , Julia worked her magic and got everything sorted out. Julia is very knowledgeable and trustworthy. I highly recommend her for any legal matter you, your family or friends may face. read more
