Messick Law, PLLC

"Ms. Jacquelyn S. Lutz is a horrible attorney and did NOT advocate for me whatsoever. She only got me one (1) overnight with my daughter (which is only half of what Minnesota Statute 518.175 allows for parenting time unless the parent is unfit). It took me consulting another attorney to find this out. Lutz does not seem to know the law very well. Not only that, but she allowed me to get burdened with a breathalyzer – which there was no evidence that it was needed for me or my situation. This was a costly mistake – both financially and to the strength of my case. There are plenty of other lawyers out there that will be worth the money – and I strongly suggest you continue looking elsewhere. Additionally, she would rather keep a cordial relationship with the opposing attorney instead of working hard for her client. She often seemed annoyed by me – which is a horrible feeling when burdened with custody matters. I would emphasize this comment if you are a Father fighting for Parenting Time with or custody of your children. Furthermore, she seems to be blinded by her own personal views, rather than looking for blind justice – which is what any attorney should do. I would give zero (0) stars if it was an option."

"I have worked with Steven and his assistant, Christine. I am impressed with their professionalism and how conscientious they are in dealing with their clients. They are prompt and courteous. I highly recommend Messick Law PLLC."

"Jacquelyn Lutz was hands down the best attorney I could've asked for. She came recommended by a friend. She is professional, understands client needs, and was there with me every step of the way in a custody case."

"I had Jacquelyn Lutz as my attorney. She is extremely professional, to the point, and prompt about any questions I had. She was so helpful as I went through mediation, court, filing, etc. and explained how everything worked so I could understand. She was extremely thorough and I would highly recommend her!"

"*Revised October 2019* I ended up retaining Ms. Lutz again in July 2019. Yet again Ms. Lutz fiercely advocated for the best interest of my family and I. Ms. Lutz gave a very accurate, tenacious, passionate pleading to our Judge that resulted in the legal matter being ruled in my favor. Ms. Lutz presented a complex case and was able to passionately advocate on my families behalf. I was overly pleased with her legal knowledge and ability to put such a complex case together so precise. I will continue to retain Ms. Lutz on all of my legal matters in the future as well as reccomend her to others in need of superb legal representation. I first came to Ms. Jacquelyn Lutz in October of 2016. It was definitely the worst time in my life and she compassionately spoke with me about my options. Ms. Lutz thoroughly explained the laws, statutes, process and what to expect going forward. What was supposed to be one case, turned into three intricate cases that took a huge toll on me and my family. Ms. Lutz represented me in court on all three cases with a vast knowledge of the laws and how to proceed accordingly. During all three cases she kept me informed, calm, gave me resources to utilize, and (most important) gave me a realistic view of what may come next. Ms. Lutz knew each case required a great deal of knowledge and creative thinking on how to legally proceed forward with each case. My family and friends are forever grateful for the amazing representation by Ms. Lutz. I highly recommend Ms. Lutz for anyone needing or considering superb representation for any kind of family law. -Miss Megan Y. Hedberg"
