| 124475 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | View Details | This Judge is absolutely horrible and is by far the worst Judge I have ever been in front of.

| 116490 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | She is a miserable human being. I handled a prove up before her on a wrongful death case of a minor.

| 111239 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Judge Jessner will make you miserable if you go to trial in her courtroom. The only thing good I can say about her is that she is so mean and unprofessional that she probably drives more litigants to settle just to stay TF away fr...Read More | 10/22/2022 07:37 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 103035 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | View Details | I have been a clerk for 5 years, and we all talk about the Judges. She has the worst judicial temperament, she belittles people, and is completely incapable of applying the law. If she doesn't like you, she will bend over backwa...Read More | 02/20/2022 12:53 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 76520 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | View Details | Judge Samantha Jessner committed serious crimes in the cases of Alisa Spitzberg and Melissa Balin. It's a tragedy that Jessner is still on the bench though thank god she has been demoted from the criminal courts. She is a menace t...Read More | 09/22/2019 08:15 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 69639 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | It's not that Judge Jessner is pro plaintiff or pro defendant. She is pro-money, pro-prestige, pro- big firm. The best way to put it is she is pro-Goliath. I'm not sure whether she supports Trump, but they are of the same ilk. Th...Read More | 05/27/2019 08:32 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 65996 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Judge Jessner has the worst temperament I've ever witnessed in a judge after seventeen years of practice. Avoid her at all cost, especially if you are not "big law". A former big-law lawyer herself, she has an unabashed bias for ...Read More | 02/28/2019 03:04 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 65992 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Judge Jessner is an exceedingly unkind, unfair, despotic, temperamental and irrational person. She presents as a true narcissist.

| 53709 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | View Details | the only good thing to be said about Judge Samantha Jessner is thank god she was demoted from the criminal courts, after a series of outrages. As bad as a civil judge as she is at least she no longer can affect the liberty of thos...Read More | 01/23/2018 07:17 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 51958 | Other | No Rating | This judge is a mental case. Not sure if she is experiencing a medical issue such as a hormonal imbalance but 170.6 immed. | 10/02/2017 05:15 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 49301 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | No Rating | Judge Jessner is a pretty good judge. She also has a sense of humor. I would rate her a 7 out of 10. Considering this is the downtown courthouse she is far better than what you can come across. She is not wishy washy and calls it ...Read More | 05/04/2017 08:30 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 47886 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | She does not know the law, not even the basics of hearsay. As for employment law, no clue, she just makes things up, regardless of any cites you put in front of her. She is also a very mean person, with, what seems a very strong ...Read More | 02/22/2017 11:18 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 46539 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | View Details | Judge Jessner is a stickler for the law. If you have the law on your side and good facts to support it then she is the judge you want to be in front of. | 11/30/2016 05:51 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 46197 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | View Details | Judge Jessner is not only a notoriously dirty judge but she is famous in the courts for coming on to female clerks. When the married or disinterested clerks reject Sam's advances, Sam retaliates by getting them fired and also by t...Read More | 11/05/2016 02:47 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 46156 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Judge Jessner is condescending, and beyond disrespectful in the way she speaks with attorneys in open court. She should be ashamed herself. She is the reason why misanthropes exist. This is the first time I have felt compelled to...Read More | 11/02/2016 01:42 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 45580 | Litigant | No Rating | This woman is so full herself that she cannot think properly. She will bow to powerful influences and nail you no matter how right you are. One can only look at her face to understand who she is. It is hard to explain how bad she ...Read More | 09/28/2016 09:14 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 41617 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Somewhat frustrating when dealing with garbage/frivolous cases - provides ample and unnecessary leave to amend, yet sets trial dates and discovery cutoffs far too early in light of her granting leave to amend multiple times. On m...Read More | 03/25/2016 12:10 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 36559 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | No Rating | Judge Jessner needs to be off the bench.Her rulings appear to be a product of bribery and corruption. No regard for the law. No regard for other human beings. Disgusting lady. | 07/30/2015 10:10 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 36410 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | I was willing to believe that it was just me or perhaps I was just being singled out. However, after reading the other comments I am obviously not alone. The comment provided by CA7159 on 06/19/15 is EXACTLY how I would write my...Read More | 07/21/2015 07:29 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 35586 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Judge Jessner is by far the worst judge I've encountered in many many years as a civil litigation attorney. Its not just her rulings, which are bad enough. It is her temperament - she is a person who should not be on the bench be...Read More | 06/19/2015 08:23 PM | Contact reviewer |

| 33526 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | No Rating | Since there are no 0 ratings I cannot give jessner even 1. Awful would be a compliment for this peace of junk judge.

| 33525 | Civil Litigation - Private | No Rating | I read the reviews about this dishonorable jessner. I will soon post what she did and still doing in my case.

| 31304 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | In a civil case, Judge was professional, researched the law and allowed both sides to present their case in a fair manner. Be prepared to state the legal basis to any objection you raise and have supporting case law handy. | 11/27/2014 11:36 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 27452 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | She is rude and unprofessional. Each time I have gone before her it has been obvious she did not read the moving papers. She makes offhanded comments in the galley as her "rulings" rather than discussing matters in chambers or tak...Read More | 06/13/2014 03:17 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 23430 | Court Staff | No Rating | Judge Jessner is a psychopath. Her ability to make life-altering rulings is a tragedy. Her mother is the head of the Bar (Patricia Philips), and this makes Sammy Jessner think she can get away with anything. She will go down in hi...Read More | 09/25/2013 08:02 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 21955 | Litigant | No Rating | She really is what these people are saying about her. I went in to get my gun rights back after the LAPD put me on a 5150 for 2 hours and then let me go because they realized it was absurd. The DA in the mental health department a...Read More | 06/07/2013 12:07 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 14552 | Other | No Rating | Insane. EXTREMELY rude to petitioners and has no respect for the law or even HER courtroom employees. Might as well jump to the State appeals court if you are within a 10-foot pool radius of this nut. | 04/19/2012 02:54 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 12032 | Litigant | No Rating | The pits. Evil, biased, and dangerous. She is out of a nightmare. I will be haunted for life due to the vile choices of this Judge Samantha Jessner. Ruthless, amoral, and phony to the core. | 10/08/2011 02:40 PM | Contact reviewer |

| 8754 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | View Details | Judge Samantha Jessner is a shill for the prosecution. She will give them anything they want whenever they want it.
