Very personable & caring
Jennifer was constantly in touch me during the lawsuit. I worked with her for a couple of years. Unfortunately we were up against a very rich company and could not continue due to financial issues. She was very helpful in letting us know what was happening every step of the way.

Mixed results
I hired Jennifer Rozen when she was still part of Fishman Rozen for a rent overcharge case. At that time I found her manner smart and reassuring and was satisfied. Once she switched to her own firm the handling of my case declined. When one of her attorneys called me from court about my case, she did...

Replied last January 28, 2021Although I am sorry to hear that you were not pleased with my office's representation of your case, I respectfully disagree that we did not zealously represent you and/or achieve favorable results. If you were unsatisfied with the negotiation, I do wish you would have expressed same during the process. While my firm does strive to relieve the anxiety ridden burden of legal stress for our clients, we also absolutely honor every clients agency and autonomy in being the ultimate decision maker for matters so personal and consequential. If I didn't make that clear and you were secretly unhappy with the terms of your settlement, I am sincerely sorry. As I reflect on your feedback, the piece I find most puzzling is that although you claim to have found our services disappointing, you have contacted us for additional legal advice since writing this review. I am happy to discuss further if you would like to reach out. We are always striving to improve.

Overcharged and underperformed
Beware. Incompetent over sensitive. At $450 an house she did not deliver on anything, did not return an email which affected me negatively for eight days and then took offense when I brought it up & resigned a few thousand dollars later. It is of my opinion she writes her official documents with arti...

Replied last December 02, 2025Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry you feel dissatisfied, but this review does not reflect the services that were actually provided. From the outset, I communicated clearly about my billing practices and responded to all legal matters related to your case while it was active. Any communications you sent directly to me were billed in accordance with the retainer agreement you signed. In fact, I significantly under-billed you for the time I actually spent on your matter. I also provided detailed legal work product and guidance based on the information you supplied—much of which later proved to be incomplete or inaccurate. All documents filed on your behalf were drafted by me and were highly specific to your set of facts. Suggesting otherwise is simply false. I take pride in providing high-quality, ethical representation, and I wish you the best moving forward.

Gravely disappointing
Disorganized. Inappropriate. Entirely unprofessional. Unreasonable. Made a bad situation worse.
Posted by anonymous | August 15, 2024
Actually 0 stars but AVVO doesn't give that option
I consulted but did not retain this attorney. It was clear that she didn't have the slightest interest in my case, but she was e tremely interested in getting lots of money up front. I find all the positive reviews extremely hard to believe. No attorney actually gets many reviews, so beware of the on...

Replied last July 04, 2017I am sorry to hear you had a negative experience with my office. We represent hundreds of tenants a year and great take pride in resolving their matters efficiently and economically. We keep our hourly rates lower than many of our colleagues because we are sensitive to the fact that paying legal fees is a hardship for many of our clients. Unfortunately, we are a small firm and therefore it's not feasible for us to take on more than a few pro bono or contingency fee cases each year. I wish you the best of luck and hope that you are able to find an attorney who can assist you upon the terms you're looking for.
