Jacqueline Mayer

Firm: Mayer Law PLLC
36 W 7th Street , Newport , Kentucky 41071
Practice Areas: Criminal Defense
Growing up, my dad would tell me to be a doctor or a lawyer so I could take care of him in his old age.  When I finally became an attorney I felt called to be a public servant as first a Judge's staff attorney and then as a prosecutor.  After a few years in the public sector I was ready for a change of scenery so I moved to private practice.  It is in private practice that I have really been able to apply my passion for people and for the law to my career.  As the owner of my own firm, I pride myself on the personal attention and availability I am able to bring to the table.  I am truly available 24/7 as I understand that the criminal justice system does not stop going after five.  My clients get my honest assessments and can tell that I want to work to help them obtain justice.  I enjoy assisting my clients navigate the court system, criminal cases, sexual misconduct allegations, expungements, Title IX proceedings, as well as Domestic Violence Protective Order hearings.  If you have any questions, reach out and give me a call.

I didn't come up with a silver spoon and always considered it my duty to help others rather than just cash in.  I've been blessed that I found my calling so early and was given opportunities from mentors to start handling serious matters early in my career.  This has led to my experience in death penalty cases, serious sexual offenses, robbery, burglary, trafficking, assault, and financial crimes.  I teach defense methods annually to other attorneys including sessions on litigating mental health, constitutional death penalty claims, and jury selection.  Being an aggressive advocate is a joy to me and I appreciate the opportunity to stand between the government and my clients.. I have been married for eleven years and my wife is a photographer.  I have one daughter.  In the limited free time I enjoy I like working on cars, racing, and offroading.

1001 Monarch St Ste 120 , Lexington , Kentucky 40513
Practice Areas: Criminal Defense
I have been an attorney since 1998.  I understand when people are coming to see me for Family Law or criminal matters, they are going through one on the worst times of their lives.  I believe my job is to help take away the fear of the unknown and provide as much information as possible.. There is so much that goes into the effective representation of a person.  Every case is different, and every one has its own unique set of facts and moving parts.  I will represent you and your situation zealously.  I do not believe in a cookie-cutter system of representation.  I understand and respect that your case is the most important thing in the world to you.. There is not a criminal case I have not handled--from traffic tickets to murder and everything in between.  Likewise, my Family Law practice has seen me handle countless cases of various types and complexities.  Divorce, Separation, Child Custody, Timesharing, Maintenance, Child Support, Domestic Violence--you name it (married and unmarried couples).. My belief is that I will use my experience to inform you of not only the law, but also the process and how/why the system works the way it does.  I will tailor my service to fit your needs.  Armed with this information, you will not feel intimidated walking into a courtroom.. Being in court is the most enjoyable part of the job for me, so if we have to litigate, that is what we will do.  Likewise, if reaching an amicable settlement is in your best interests, we will explore that avenue.  I will always be focused on your best interests and shoot you straight.
