A hack

If you are a victim of abuse, run in the other direction! Jennifer will compromise your safety. She provided my ex's counsel with my personal information which I had legally protected under California's Safe at Home program. They then provided it to my ex. Do not give her your personal information. I...t is not safe. Jennifer talks a big game. I was drawn to her because of her work with her BLM legal defense work. She told me she would complete my divorce for $2k. After completing just one hearing for which she was on a road trip and dropped the call multiple times, she withdrew, leaving me to find a new attorney. She did not provide a refund, either. Everyone I interviewed said the same thing: "Why hasn't she submitted this claim yet?" I had no reply; she refused to provide a strategy. When I asked for her to provide my case with some attention, after months of her stalling, she replied by telling me about another client who had been punched in the face the day before, which retraumatized me. I spent so much time working through that image, all done to try to put me in my place. She topped off her withdraw by with lying to the court, saying I had asked her to withdraw, and PA Bar, saying I had called her names. As if we were in elementary school. She is not trauma-informed and is in well over her head working with the public. I feel sorry for the protestors who relied on her to bail them out.

Sincere, personable and invested

Jennifer has been a caring person who genuinely cares about the well being of me and my daughter. I’ve had several lawyers, but I’ve never had one who has genuinely cared about our case like Jennifer has, nor anyone who sincerely pays attention and remembers important details. Jennifer hasn’t just be...en a lawyer, she’s been like a friend and I would never want anyone else representing me besides her.

Support Case

I am extremely satisfied with Jennifer's representation, as I can tell she genuinely cares. She was present at my support hearing today and she made sure things went fair. I am pleased with the results (considering the situation). No one wants to be placed in this situation when they are present in... their children's lives and voluntarily provide support, because it's the right thing to do. I thank you Jennifer!

Best attorney ever!!

I hired Jennifer to help with my divorce case in 2016, and I still am amazed with the services I received. She was so down-to-earth and really supportive, I felt so comfortable talking with her. I could tell she genuinely cared about my case, because she was always very quick to respond- whether by... phone or email- and always incredibly thorough in her explanations. She helped guide me through the most difficult time of my life, and I am forever grateful for her help. I thought my divorce would leave me completely broke and hopeless, but she helped me get the settlement I needed to provide a decent home for my children. Best of all- I can move on with my life! I would hire Jennifer again in a heartbeat.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
