Wonderful!

I met Jennifer in distress of my divorce and custody of my son as my ex had filed for full custody. She led me to understand the process and was patient with me and my million questions through every step of the way. She took note of my wishes and put them into actions seamlessly. I did not have to w...orry when I was under her care. If there was something I needed to know, she informed me immediately. When I feared I might lose my everything as a mother, she took care of everything and the end result was even better than I ever could have imagined. She was thorough and knowledgeable of her jurisdiction and family law. Her experience shows through her handling of her files and decisive actions. I would highly recommend her to anyone who ever finds themselves in my shoes. You will be in great hands!

divorce/custody

Jennifer was recommend to me by another attorney to handle my hostile divorce/custody case. I had originally hired a different attorney but was unhappy with them. Fortunately, Jennifer agreed to take the case and I am so thankful for her services. She was very proactive from the onset, quickly put ...my malicious ex in his place, and refused to compromise with his unreasonable demands. She spent many hours on my case and got me the results I wanted. I was ultimately granted full custody of my child and a no-contact order with my ex. Jennifer was knowledgeable, organized always well-prepared for court dates/meetings throughout the case. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone seeking a divorce/custody attorney, and would definitely hire her again.

Dave- divorce/separation

Mrs. Fox came highly recommended to me from a friend who was very satisfied with the level of service she provided during his separation and divorce. I am very thankful for his recommendation. I had been dealing with an unfaithful wife for seven years fearful to pursue a divorce knowing the impact ...it may have on our twelve year old daughter. This was the hardest decision I've ever made. Mrs. Fox was very understanding of my situation. She took the time to explain that although divorce is hard on everyone involved, it is sometimes necessary. Her explanation of the law as it pertained to my divorce was thorough and professional. I liked the fact that she listened to what I wanted to get out of the divorce, then provided legal options, giving me the freedom to direct the outcome. When my wife's attorney redirected and made changes to our agreement, she was prompt in getting them to me and explaining what the changes meant and how they would impact my situation. When all parties met to discuss the agreement, many thoughts and ideas were mentioned within the two hour meeting. Not being a person who likes to make quick decisions, I felt confident based on her responses that she was looking after my best interest. She kept an open line of communication by phone and E-Mail regardless if it was after normal business hours. She even recommended counseling for my daughter and I to get through these tough times which made me feel like she truly cared for me as a person and not just a client.

As good as advertised

I could not have asked for a better fit to represent me in court then Jennifer. She's very professional and can also relate to just about anyone. When my child custody case started I had no idea where to start when it came to hiring an attorney. I had 2 different people, who didn't know each other... at all, recommend her to me. I gave her a call and seriously couldn't be happier. She has taken my phone calls late at night and I've sat in her office with her well after the building has closed. I even recommended her to my neighbor who was having child custody issues and he has told me many times how satisfied he is with what she did for him. She has represented me as well as anyone could, which is why I will continue to use her in the future with any issues I have regarding my son.
