Simply the best, better than all the rest

Jennifer is so prudent and efficient after two discussions she agreed to a consultation to scope the challenge. I then brought her on to represent me and it turned out to be a life changing move had I try to resolve my issue on an I'll advised basis just whithin my family. Her intuition , preparation... , analysis and conviction keeps you on your toes as she navigates the complex dynamics of a case and magically makes it more simple. She was rarely wrong however when challenged she listens and will use your input if you're on point. A rare exceptional talent , a wonderful compassionate family woman and just an amazing human being I'm proud to call my friend for life.

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.

Excellent Attorney

Ms. Grant provided exceptional legal counsel. She was courteous and took the time to explain the legal process with which we were seeking guidance. She executed the plan quickly and obtained a successful resolution. Highly recommended.

A truly exceptional attorney and a superb person.

After talking to 11 attorneys (on the phone) about a complex family dispute, I hired Jennifer Grant. My sister, who had been estranged from my mother on and off for years, had taken advantage of my elderly and failing mother (I lived out of state but visited at least once a month; my sister lived clo...se by) and had me and my grown children written out of the will (a will that had been in place for decades). From the first phone call with Jennifer I felt like she not only understood the issues of my case, but also how highly emotional this was for me (my mother and I were very close until my sister "took over."). Jennifer was also highly recommended by several other attorneys whom I spoke to as well (always a good sign). Jennifer wasted no time getting to work on my case -- she was diligent, efficient and meticulous in her preparation. I went to Florida for the first court hearing and was very impressed with not only her preparation for my case, but also how professional and polite she was to the court officers, as well as everyone (including the opposing council) she met (she is also incredibly nice!). In less than 3.5 months we had a settlement (a miracle since my sister swore she wasn't going to give us anything), and I could put this horrific episode behind me, and get back to mourning my mother. Jennifer is smart --she seems to know every law and statue off the top of her head - hard working, sincerely caring, and has a true sense of right and wrong. She's also realistic, and made sure I understood the big picture and not just what I "wished" were true/fair. I also very much admired Jennifer's integrity -- which I could see shine through every step of the way. I am deeply grateful for the impeccable work that Jennifer did on my behalf and could not recommend her more highly! ** Please excuse typos

Extraordinary – You can’t find better representation

My siblings were in litigation over my mother’s estate for 3 years and I managed to keep out of it until the trustee put me in the middle of the chaos. I chose Jennifer not only for her qualifications and experience but also for the outstanding reviews about her and her work. Every single review was ...spot on in everything that was said. She dealt with two other litigators and facilitated a settlement within several weeks. However very soon after, one sibling refused to honor the agreement. Again, Jennifer brought the litigation to a quick resolution. Through her hard work, determination, and sense of justice, she identified a statute that showed my sibling was negligent despite having well regarded legal counsel. As a result of Jennifer’s action, this sibling agreed to a settlement very much in my favor within weeks. All this happened in a period of 4 months (which included major holidays) whereas my siblings had been litigating for several years. If you want something done, retain Jennifer as your counsel. She got the job done efficiently and quickly. You can’t find better legal counsel.

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."

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.
