Correct a Wrong

Recently we required the legal service of a NJ lawyer; we had relocated from there to another state more than a decade ago. An Internet search for an out-of-state attorney led us to Jef Henninger Esq. We have nothing but the highest praise for Mr. Henninger and his staff; the efficiency and courtesy... we received was excellent. Within a matter of weeks (which included a court hearing) our situation was resolved.

A great no nonsense attorney who will work for you

As a police officer for 20 years I have had contact with many attorneys.When I sat down and first met with Jef I told him of my concerns ,he listened then turned to me and said thats my job let me worry about that.It was the way he said it that right then and there I knew I was in good hands.He know...s what he says and does what he says.This is the attorney you need.The other attorneys in his group that I was involved with also had this great attorney attitude .I will refer his group to anyone I know.

Defense for restraining order

A restraining order is a very scary thing to recieve, especially when unexpected. It happened to me. I immediately found jef Hennenger online and hired him. He explained NJ law to me. I felt much better walking into court with a jef Hennenger attorney representing me. When I felt the judge was going ...to rule against me, my attorney argued some key points to the judge and Her Honor dismissed. The final order. It was a tremendous weight off my mind. I was very pleased with jefs prehearing support staff.

Firearms purchaser ID and Handgun permits

I highly recommend Jef to anyone who needs assistance with obtaining firearms purchaser ID and/or handgun permit in NJ. I was getting a serious run around from the local PD and never even got a chance to hand in my application (They claimed i needed to make an appointment just to hand it in). They ke...pt pushing me off. I have no criminal record or history of drug use yet my 2nd amendment rights were being denied. As soon as i hired Jef, the next day, the PD reached out to me and asked me to bring in my application. From there out, the process was smooth and pleasant. I received my initial firearms purchaser ID + 2 handgun permits within a couple of weeks after trying on my own for over 3 weeks with no progress. I have already recommended Jef to friends and family for his legal counsel and services. I will be using him in the future if any need arises for legal counsel. I really appreciate his and his staff's assistance with my case. They were pleasant, helpful and attentive. Martine, one of his paralegals was amazing, she stayed on top of everything and kept me informed through the whole process. Questions and concerns were always answered via phone and/or email quickly.

Jef actually cares about justice, and we finally got it!

I spoke with six other attorneys before I found Jef. All six told me that my money was gone and that the guy who ripped me off would get off scott free. They told me that my case wasn't worth taking because the amount of money involved (just under $10,000) wasn't enough to justify their fees. Jef ...took my case for a nominal fee assuming that this crooked businessman would give me my money back or ship the expensive item to me once he received a threatening letter, but neither of us realized just how reckless and sleazy this cat actually was at the time. That was one and a half years ago. My case has finally been put to rest in a criminal court. The sleazy business man pled guilty to three counts of theft by deception and is either going to pay me in full or serve jail time, all due to Jef Henninger's fine work. Damn it feels good! Not only did Jef go FAR above and beyond the call of duty for me, he maintained integrity and was honest with me every step of the way. I still can't believe how lucky I was to find Jef and to hire him for this case. For anyone reading this review to fully understand how much I appreciate this man and his firm, just imagine taking out a loan for almost ten grand only to find out that the item never ships. You're promised a full refund, but all you receive is lies. Next consider how you would feel after six different lawyers told you that your situation isn't worth their time, or anyone's time. Imagine going to the police and hearing them tell you that the district attorney won't prosecute because the amount of money isn't large enough. Envision yourself bringing your conclusive evidence of wrongdoing to the district attorney's office but being told that your case isn't big enough to prosecute criminally. How angry would you get each time you had to make a payment on that loan? I literally gnashed my teeth every month. Finally, imagine Jef getting justice for you and forcing the bastard to pay you or serve jail time. That's why I'm here, taking time to write this review. That's why Jef is an amazing attorney. It's why I can confidently say that he cares about justice.
