Only thing he did for me was waste my money
I talked to him and hired him for an emancipation case based off of the big game he talks. In court I find out he's going to school ok so a reduction in child support is brought up and shot down because it wasn't filed for with the emancipation. One would think an Attorney they hire would tell their ...

Replied last May 01, 2016This review is clearly false. First, I have not had an emancipation case where there was oral argument for a long time. Second, all client review motions before they are filed. They have to sign off on them. If there was something that a client wanted to have added, they would have not signed off on it. Third, the description of the case does not match the facts of any case in this office. Therefore, this is a fake review.

From the moment I spoke with Jef he began working to help us get custody of our nephew. Due to the county in NJ we were dealing with things were very difficult but Jef cont...

Very professional and caring
I retained Jef Henninger for a child support emancipation case. It was not a clear cut case as the other parent was suing to emancipate my adult college student son. My son did not maintain a passing grade point average and I was extremely concerned. Jef Henninger took my case on very short notice an...

Highly recommend Mr. Henninger and his team.

Helpful and knowledgeable throughout the process. Fair and straightforward billing. They have the e...

"Jef Henninger is a remarkable counsellor, and I have referred matters to him simply because he is unique, in addition to being generally excellent. I have an informal, self-taught specialty at the intersection of law and computer science, whereas Henninger has studied it all formally, is degreed, and there is no one like him in the statewide area. Simply the best. He's also expert in various regular specialties, including matrimonial, criminal, DYFS, and several others. I'm 25 years doing criminal law, and he's one of a small few I'd rely on for my own defense. He also employs a staff member that used to be with me, so I personally know she's excellent, too. All that plus exemplary ethics. If you're in and around NJ and need his sort of expertise, Jef's firm is your best bet to get a great outcome."
