Persistent

I first retained Jenny in 2011 when I was faced with a divorce. As with many, it was not a simple process. Jenny had made my, and my children's best interests her priority. I was very satisfied with my divorce agreement. There have been several issues since my divorce where my Ex was in comtempt. Jen...ny remained persistent in assuring my best interests and has helped me to finally be able to move on with a better life.

Beware

Unscrupulous and self-serving. Also, condescending and vindictive. Her involvement made an already difficult situation much more unpleasant.
