Forever Grateful
I am writing in regards to, sincere gratitude~~ Ms.Lippman had represented me in a V=Docket case of custody pertaining to my children in 2013. At that time in my life I was not in a very good place. I had been struggling with addiction and could not seem to understand with all my effort...

Professional/Smart/Trustworthy
Ms Lippmann represented me on a child support matter in which the court was seeking jail time. She was very upfront on the positive and negative regarding my case.

Very nice, but better options out there
We hired Ms. Lippman within the past few years. She came recommended by someone, which sounded refreshing after other bad lawyers. We dropped the $5k after the consult for the retainer. I figured we would get back whatever isn't used, since that is how it has worked in the past. Money upfront to ensu...
Jennifer Lippmann
Replied last March 16, 2018This review is plainly not true. Our Firm enters into a Retainer Agreement with each client clearly stating our fee schedule and billing procedures. Our office uses a software program that allows every client to view both present and prior invoices, access work product, and communicate with us directly. This post does not set forth accurate fees charged by our Firm for the work claimed to have been done. As of today, my office has not received any complaints regarding billing and/or work product from prior clients we represented on custody and/or visitation matters. We encourage every client to review each aspect of a proposed custody/visitation agreement before it is signed and submitted to the Court. Fortunately for this anonymous client, only one court appearance was necessary to come to what must have been a favorable agreement. We are proud of our work and even more proud of our ethical standards. When the reviewer can't remember receiving billing information and is posting inaccurate fees, I must question whether this review is even real or made by an opposing party.
