Top Notch Service From Attorney Miguel

I'm writing this testimonial to share my positive experience using Attorney Jennifer Miguel to represent me in my recent divorce. As anyone who has been through it knows, divorce is hard. However, Attorney Miguel made the process as easy as it could possibly be. She was always available to address... my questions. Her responsiveness was truly impressive, as she followed up with me even on nights and weekends. Notably, Attorney Miguel even connected with me while she was on vacation. Throughout the process, I always felt like an important client. She explained every detail to me, and always verified that I thoroughly understood every step before we moved forward. Having all of the information laid out clearly helped me make good decisions. She certainly advised me well. Nobody ever wants to have a need for a lawyer, but life is messy. If you find yourself in need of a good lawyer, I would highly recommend calling Attorney Jennifer Miguel for assistance.

She is an Expert with removal custody cases

I had a difficult custody case with my ex. I live in another state. Thanks to Jennifer I recieved physical custody of my son. During the process Jennifer and her staff kept me informed of what would happen, how it would happen. I had worked with other lawyers that said I should just try and get bette...r visitation terms. Jennifer told me that change of custody could happen and it did. There was a point I was almost ready to give up but her and her staff kept me going. My ex was not the nicest person in the meetings but Jennifer kept a professional mannor about her throughout the process. When it comes to removal cases if she cant do get it done. then it can't be done. Thanks Jennifer, Jennifer and Amanda

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
