In This Circumstance, The Right Attorney Hire Is The Most Important Decision You Can Make...Hire Jennifer

Mine is a particularly thorny and relentlessly troublesome circumstance of joint custody.  Whilst I have come to understand there is little an attorney, judge, or anyone can do to correct someone's chosen behavior and mindset, I have found it crucially beneficial to control those aspects which can be..., and ensure that my rights as a father, and indeed those of my children, are protected.  This is where attorney selection and representation choice is key, and it is why Jennifer not only receives my wholehearted support within this review, but is why she is also a key referral to many friends and acquaintances who experience similar life circumstances and difficulties. I most certainly had sub-par attorney representation from 2015-2018, when my divorce and custody case was first being heard and then concluded within a global settlement.  However, as many reviews on this site state, my experience of emotional exhaustion and wanting to simply move on with life, is not a unique one.  Upon reflection, there were many oversights, omissions, and lack of deeper thinking by my previous attorney, which could have established a much clearer rulebook for co-parenting, than the one that transpired and that I agreed to.  Hindsight is a wonderful thing. Enter Jen.   Jen came to me as a referral from a close friend, whom she had helped with a support matter, and from the outset, her approach was so vastly different to my prior experience. I found Jen immediately grasping a clear understanding of my concerns and experiences, which was then fused with her expertise and application of her craft, making the push back against some bad, and indeed dangerous, behaviors, timely, thorough, deft and appropriate.  Jen has piloted the filing of many violations, resultantly sought (and won) modifications, along with contempt motions, which have resulted in contempt of court rulings and subsequent awards to me.  All this within what I consider to be at times a heavily biased family court system. I do not enjoy the court process and I do not enjoy the litigation process, but when you have few other options than to engage that system, then it is best to go all in, to try and achieve the best possible outcome, and hopefully some peace.  I urge anyone in this difficult situation to not treat the choice of attorney engagement casually. This process has far reaching implications, some of which you will not have thought of, particularly at a time which is often highly emotionally charged, and where clear thinking can be challenging.  Jennifer's hire will ensure you, and by default those that matter most to you, are protected to the best of her ability.

A Defender!

Going through a divorce is one of the most emotionally exhausting and overwhelming experiences a person can face, and I truly do not know how I would have gotten through it without Jen's guidance, preparation, and unwavering support. From the very beginning, Jen was organized, strategic, and prepa...red for every step of the process. No detail was ever overlooked. She consistently stayed ahead of deadlines and ensured I fully understood what to expect throughout the case. Her professionalism and command of the legal process gave me an incredible sense of reassurance during such an uncertain time. What stood out most to me, however, was how fiercely Jen advocated for me — especially during the moments when I was emotionally drained and ready to give in simply to end the stress. Divorce can wear you down mentally and emotionally, and there were times I no longer had the strength to fight for what was fair. Jen did not allow me to settle out of exhaustion or fear. Instead, she reminded me of my worth, protected my interests, and continued fighting for me when I no longer had the energy to fight for myself. She was not only highly efficient and detail-oriented, but also deeply supportive and honest throughout the entire process. I always felt that my case mattered and that I was more than just another client. Because of Jen's preparation, and persistence, I walked away from one of the hardest periods of my life feeling protected, respected, and genuinely represented. I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone going through a divorce or family court matter. If you want an attorney who is prepared, responsive, strategic, and truly willing to stand beside you during the hardest moments, you will be in exceptionally capable hands with Jen. You are truly a blessing! Thank you so much Jen.

I whole heartedly recommend Ms Moran

I selected Ms Moran to represent me in my divorce. It was the best decision I could have made. Ms Moran was at all times professional, confident, understanding of my situation, straightforward, and successful. Please do not mistake these qualities as weaknesses. Ms Moran was respectful of the court... and opposition but also thorough, tenacious and knowledgeable of all aspects of our case. I whole heartedly would recommend Ms Moran to my friends, family and anyone seeking a highly qualified attorney.

The right lawyer at the right time

During a challenging time when I was dealing with family issues and going through a divorce, I encountered numerous people who expressed their disdain for lawyers. However, Jennifer changed my perspective. She demonstrated remarkable understanding, compassion, and clarity in explaining everything to ...me. It was an exceptional experience.

Compassionate, Skilled, and Truly Supportive

Working with Jen during such a difficult time was truly a gift. From the very beginning, she made us feel supported, heard, and understood, while also guiding with confidence and clarity every step of the way. She has a rare ability to be both strong and compassionate—advocating fiercely when needed..., but always with thoughtfulness and care. What could have been an overwhelming process felt much more manageable because of her steady presence and responsiveness. We are incredibly grateful for her dedication and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone going through a divorce. Kerry Aprile Hanner
