Jennifer Lynn Schenker

I cannot say enough about the kindness, integrity, and generosity of Jennifer Lynn Schenker. She is not just an incredibly knowledgeable family law attorney — she is a true advocate for justice and compassion. From the moment I reached out to her office at 910 Franklin Ave in Garden City, Jennifer tr...eated me and my best friend’s mother with empathy and attentiveness that you rarely find in the legal field. What makes Jennifer truly stand out is not just her expertise, but her heart. She offered pro bono advice during a time of extreme urgency and emotional distress. My best friend’s mother was in a terrifying situation — she had been coerced into signing divorce papers written in a language she does not fluently speak or understand. To make matters worse, she was on the brink of eviction. Jennifer not only took the time to explain the legal nuances in a clear and patient way, but she also helped us understand our rights and the steps we needed to take to protect this woman from being taken advantage of. Her compassion was palpable, and her guidance was invaluable. Jennifer could have easily brushed us off, but instead she stood up for someone who didn’t have the voice or resources to fight back. That speaks volumes about her character. If you are in need of a family law attorney who genuinely cares about people — not just cases — I wholeheartedly recommend Jennifer Lynn Schenker. She is a rare gem in the legal profession, and I will forever be grateful for the clarity, support, and humanity she offered in one of our darkest hours.

Jennifer Schenker was an incredible source of strength and guidance during one of the most difficult times in my life. Divorce is an emotional and often overwhelming process, but Jen provided the reassurance and expertise I needed to navigate it with confidence. Her professionalism and deep knowle...dge of family law were evident in every step of the process. She was aggressive when necessary, always advocating for my best interest as well as the best interest of my children, yet also strategic and level-headed, ensuring the best possible outcome. What stood out most was her responsiveness—anytime I had a question or concern, she was prompt and thorough in her responses, making sure I felt heard and supported. If you’re looking for a divorce attorney who is both compassionate and tenacious, I highly recommend Jennifer Schenker.

I knew of Jennifer’s outstanding reputation and decided to seek her help for a domestic violence case. My partner physically attacked me and my dog. A scuffle ensued and I was able to get free of his chokehold and pass my dog over to my neighbor who called the police. It was all caught on another nei...ghbor’s ring camera. I contacted Jennifer immediately. She was compassionate, interviewed me, looked over the camera evidence, text communication, police report, etc… my safety and the safety of my dog were her priority. Jennifer was able to obtain a restraining order against my partner within days. The relief I felt was incredible. I felt protected and safe. I knew Jennifer personally but, through this difficult time in my life I discovered she is also a thoughtful, professional, caring attorney who listens to the needs of her clients to obtain the best results. She gave me the strength to end a toxic relationship and move on. She goes above and beyond. Jennifer has my highest recommendation!
