Great representation

Jennifer was a godsend! She was in my corner for what would be the fight of my life- for my life. Never did I have to face a daunting Legal system on my own. She is a true advocate.

The best grandparent/grandchild adoption attorney in Duval County

Jennifer is exceptional at making the task at hand look easy. She listens to and addresses your concerns, and takes the time to relate to you as if you are the only case she is handling at that moment (trust me, she's a busy woman). She will tell you the good, the bad, and the ugly about your case ...whether you want to hear it or not; she keeps it real. She's the first attorney my husband and I called when starting our case and just by how she addressed our questions and listened to the dynamics of everything that had occurred up to the point of us calling her, we knew immediately she was the one to get our case resolved. And let me tell you, we are still mind blown how the first part of our case ended. She exceeded our expectations. And let's not forget her amazing legal assistant, Michelle, who did an amazing job at getting things coordinated between us and Jennifer. These two are an amazing team. Jennifer and Michelle, thank you for all you have done for our family; you rock!!!!

ABSOLUTELY the person you want to represent you

I was referred to Attorney Erlinger by an ex-coworker to help with a bullying situation that my disabled daughter is having at school. This situation has been EXTREMELY stressful because the school nor the district are doing anything to assist. When I initially made my appointment, I was asked to ema...il whatever correspondence I had with the school via email. To my surprise, when I met Attorney Erlinger the next day, she not only knew the issues that my daughter was having but she knew details and names (Please note that I had an abundance of emails and incident reports.) This showed me that she truly wanted to help and that she actually cared. She is very professional, compassionate, dedicated to what she does and very educated in her field of work. It's hard to find an attorney that will truly put their all into their cases. Attorney Erlinger will not only put her all into it but she will go above and beyond to make sure that she takes that heavy load off of your back. I am extremely confident and satisfied with having Attorney Erlinger represent me.

Family Law

I was very frustrated with the legal system regarding a divorce case, and Jennifer was amazing and fantastic in her knowledge and putting my mind at ease. She took time out of her own schedule to read, about 200 pages, trial transcript and sort things properly. We need more people like Jennifer in ...the legal system who cares about who the client is/are. I am always greatful for you.
