Jen Mira is a bright young star on the horizon. She "gets it" that lawyers owe a duty to their clients and their profession. She is active in bar activities, a leader in the Young Lawyers Section and a pleasure to work with. I heartily endorse her professionalism.

As a fellow real estate attorney, I have had many residential real estate closing with Attorney Mira. I have found her to be very professional and competently represented her clients in each instance.

I highly recommend this lawyer. I have known Attorney Mira for some time now and she has always been a very professional, courteous and highly skilled attorney in her varying practice areas. I have had the experience of working with her on several cases and seen firsthand that she is more than capable and fair. Clients would not go wrong in choosing Attorney Mira to handle their legal needs and fellow attorneys would be pleased at her professional demeanor and willingness to handle legal tasks fairly.
