fantastic lawyer. super real. does not take shiznit but also does not getting into any stupid ego contests either. most of the advice i got was more about how to improve my situation or circustance than the law bc she says good facts are more powerful than hoping for the right judge or right doling out of the law. correct advice. swears a lot and wears jeans lol

The immature practice and anti-societal behaviours of Jo are in stark contrast to what she states in the Georgia Strait article. If one is considering her 'services' be aware she seems to have a poor reputation, no credibility or respect from legal peers. Seems to have a poor understanding of mediation or how to resolve family law disputes. Seemed to prefer to keep aggressively using court processes. This only leaves a bitter taste in everyones mouth and costs both parties a small fortune. Children are the ultimate victims of this style of law through financial burdens and immense strain on family. From my 1st hand experience I strongly do not recommend Jo. Formal complaint made to BC law society of her alleged perjury.

Jo is a great lawyer and amazing human. Jo will give you honest, reasonable advice. I highly recommend Jo and Breakwater Law. We have used their services several times and could no be happier.

I have worked with Jo McFetridge on two occasions for two different legal matters, once in 2014 and once in 2017/18. I was immediately reassured by her straightforward communication and willingness to tell me not always what I was hoping to hear, but what I needed to hear. She was compassionate and intelligent, and in both circumstances was able to handle aggressive tactics in a calm, cool, and collected way. I have referred a number of friends to her practice and I've always been thanked by them for connecting them with Jo. I've also referred a family member who continues to work with her. Definitely 5 stars.

Jo got nothing done. Her emails looked like they were written by a child. Her assistant is an idiot, could never tell me anything. Both just talked and talked and talked and said nothing. Uses big words to make herself look smart. More interested in her own issues to keep up with current law. She is ill educated and ill prepared. I have since changed lawyers with much more success. I was referred to the firm for a property purchase in late 2017 and the lawyer and his assistant that handled it were excellent.
