Jennifer A Anukem

I never got free consulting. She asked me to pay the whole lawyer fee before the prenup review and consulting. The first consulting is fare, although she gave comments by hand-writing, so it took me extra time to read it and edit by myself. Since then she is not easy to get, she do not response to my... email for more than two days, and after I send email again and I called (she never picked up the phone, her assistant always said she is not available now, but she never called back), she finally reply my email. However her email do not answer my question, seems like she didn't read my email at all. Her email left me confused so that I have to send email again. And it's another round of waiting for more than a week, calling never got feed back.

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...tions were retaliatory for me reporting their activities to the Maryland Bar Association. As such I would not be willing to recommend this firm to anyone seeking legal counsel.

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... unless you push it and strategy changes in mid stream. She is hard to reach by phone and does not call back within a reasonable amount of time and you may have to make several calls to reach her. Of course, the standard reply is she is in court.. Her preparation for court was inadequate. She was not prepared for cross examination. The same information was given to her over and over again and iher reaction was like she was hearing it for the first time. Save yourself time, money and aggravation and get another attorney. You will be glad you did. Trust me on this.
