Unprofessional
This firm took my case and did minimal work to then quit the case in the middle of litigation placing the outcome of my case at risk. J. Anukem & Associates then placed a judgment on the case they quit and took me to court for the balance of legal fees before the case was resolved. I believe these ac...
Thanks for expressing your concern. Unfortunately, in your case, the retainer agreement signed stated specific payment terms which were not complied with. Your complaint filed with the Maryland State Bar was dismissed and thereafter, we asked that you pay the outstanding balance owed on your case. When you failed to do so, we were left with no choice but to pursue this matter in court where we were awarded a judgement for the entire outstanding balance of your legal fees. It is important that clients keep their word and comply with the retainer agreement signed at the beginning of representation because the attorneys at our firm always strive to meet the highest standards to provide excellent legal representation. That is the reason we have received several awards and accolades from the National Association of Family Law Attorneys, SuperLawyers and other reputable organizations. We are happy to provide representation to clients who we can trust to comply with the terms of their retainer agreement because our clients can certainly trust us to provide excellent legal representation once we accept their case.

Professional service with compassion
Jennifer was great in communicating along the way, even while I was across country in the final stages of my case. This was the most difficult point in my life and she was patient and supplied me with all the ins and outs for me to make an informed decision.

Client
I believe her ability to communicate with clients and the jury stems from the fact that she thinks like a person sitting in the jury box or in the judges seat...on a level that is so understandable, so straightforward and so credible. Whenever I have consultation with her on a case I know the case wi...

Do not hire this attorney
Looked at the reviews on Avvo. I don't know where or how she got five stars. Wanted to give 0 but that was not an option. She is personable and pleasant. However, she is ineffective, tells you what you want to hear. Charges a lot of money and I do mean a lot for not much work. Nothing gets done...
We are surprised to have received a review like this as we go the extra mile to ensure client satisfaction with each case. Ms. Anukem was rated one of the top 10 family law attorneys in the state of Maryland by the national family lawyers association, she was nominated as a rising star and she has hundreds of clients who are extremely satisfied with her services. She studied at George Washington Law (one of the top 20 law schools in the country) and she chose to concentrate on family law because it gives her the opportunity to truly help people. We would like to resolve any concerns you may have. Please contact our office as soon as practicable to discuss your case and next steps which can be taken to ensure your satisfaction. Your review is so different from the sentiments of other clients that we want to understand where they are coming from and how we can resolve your concerns. We can be reached at 301-500-0462 or [email protected]. We hope to hear from you soon.

Ms. Anukem is Brillant
There is a great deal I could write in describing the absolute genius of Jennifer Anukem and her firm. The bottom-line which I cannot over emphasize is Ms. Anukem is absolutely transparent and a complete legal master. From the first conversation I had with Ms. Anukem through a painstaking trial, Ms...
