Very thoughtful and thorough

Jordan was a great help to me during a very difficult time. She is very knowledgeable about family law which made me feel very comfortable with her. She was also very caring and understanding. She made sure that everything was acceptable before proceeding with any paperwork or hearings. I would hi...ghly recommend her services.

Review of Jordan Griffin

I retained Jordan Griffin for my divorce custody case and she did an outstanding, professional, and incredibly thorough job in winning every part of the case. Ms. Griffin is very strong in her knowledge of the law, procedures, client rights, and all the strategies that produce an excellent outcome. ...She is smart, tough, caring, and considerate all at the same time - which is why she is so good at her job. I promise that you want to be on her side in a legal matter. I also appreciated Ms. Griffin's timely communication during every part of the legal process. Ms. Griffin and the Donna Stepp Law Firm are not cheap, but you always get what you pay for - and I'd choose her again and refer good people to her.

THE BEST!!!

Before retaining Jordan as my attorney, I felt helpless. The judge I had was not fair. She represented me and helped me through a tough child custody case that I know for sure would have ended with me being found guilty and my son continuing to be neglected by the opposing party. Without her, all ...of the bogus contempt charges filed against me by the father would have stuck, only because the judge would not hear “me” and anything I had to say. She also represented me for Child Support and went over and above to make sure that the judge had all information that was not being disclosed by the father. Jordan is well respected, easy to speak with, cares, and will go over and above to make sure that you receive the absolute best representation in court.

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"I supervised Jordan Griffin when she first began practicing law and I was impressed with her from the outset.

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.
