Excellent Attorney

I was desperate to find an attorney that would take my very complicated custody case that spanned 3 states. Jennifer was/is amazing!!! She jumped right in and went to work! She is very personable and treats you like a friend.

Family lawyer | Jan 07

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"Mrs. Oakley started working for my office this year. Prior to working here, I had the opportunity to observe her and have cases with her many times over the last 4 years. She is a talented attorney and goes out of her way to meet the needs of her clients. Not only does she truly care about her clients, but she also furiously fights for them in the court room. You won't find a better package in a family lawyer than Jennifer Michaud."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
