I was never left in the dark

I needed a lawyer to handle the probate of a friend who passed suddenly. I found Jennifer on the Internet, and when I called, Jennifer immediately got on phone and clearly explained the process. After contacting other lawyers, some of whom took a week to return my call, I decided on Jennifer and am... so glad I did. Jennifer involved me throughout the process, something which fit my personality and kept costs down. I had to have an out-of-state lawyer to handle the ancillary probate, and Jennifer far outshined that lawyer, who happened to be the one that originally wrote the will. Jennifer was always accessible, knew the answers to my questions right away, and listened to and understood my concerns. Jennifer knows how to get things done and does so in a compassionate manner.

Mr.

Jennifer is phenomenal. She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, understanding, caring & hard working. Jennifer was a fighter representing our family in a difficult guardianship situation which resulted in a favorable outcome. We are so grateful for Jennifer.

Truly a God-send

We can't begin to express our gratitude to Jennifer for being our guiding light through an incredibly stressful battle of elder abuse and fraud. Not only did she go above and beyond, she was incredibly supportive and understanding as we worked through a very complicated situation. She acted with hone...sty and integrity, very hard to find these days. We came to a resolution and feel so relieved and grateful. We can't thank Jennifer enough.

So Caring, So Professional, and So Knowledgable

Jennifer represented my family through a horrible situation, defending us from outrageous and frivolous claims. She actually cares, and that matters. She fights in the ways you WANT your attorney to fight, and she advises in ways you NEED your attorney to advise. In all phases of the process, we f...elt fully and completely represented and would recommend her to any family or friend in situations that involve estate and probate litigation.

Feisty, first-class, hard working, highly competent attorney

Jennifer has successfully litigated a complex case involving my elderly brother who was exploited by unscrupulous individuals taking advantage of him financially and neglecting his health until he became disabled. Because of his disability, I became his court appointed guardian. As such, I closely ...interacted with Jennifer over a 6-month period until successful resolution of the case. My brother was a victim of a “marriage of convenience “to a woman, 40 years his junior, whose sole purpose was to obtain legal status and steal his assets. This was a difficult and complicated case because it involved elder abuse by greedy and inconsiderate individuals with suspected ties to organized crime. They hired prominent high-priced attorneys to defend their case using lies, deception and disregard for the courts causing unnecessary postponements and delays. However, Jennifer would have none of it as she doggedly pursued our case doing extensive research uncovering unsavory past of the perpetrators. With this information in hand, Jennifer was able to gain an upper hand and make the perpetrators comply with our demands. It was a great relief for our family that Jennifer was able to recover some of the stolen assets and successfully annul the marriage. While Jennifer has a pleasant personality, she is a hard working, highly competent, first-class attorney who achieves excellent results for her clients and therefore I highly recommend her to anyone requiring an expert at litigation, trusts and estates.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I originally met Jennifer as opposing counsel in a probate case. I was so impressed with her handling of the case that I now refer probate and trust litigation cases to her. She is very knowledgable and a fierce advocate for her clients, but at the same time she is professional and fair to opposing counsel. I highly recommend Jennifer."
