Jeanmarie Whalen - An Excellent Attorney

My wife and I were new to Florida when I was injured. I was in intensive care for weeks and we had no idea how to navigate through all the new Florida-specific provisions for handling insurance or filing a claim. Jeanmarie Whalen was recommeded to us and we are so glad to have chosen her. Ms. Wh...alen stepped right in and immediately came to the assistance of my wife - who otherwise would have had to handle everything by herself. It was truly overwhelming and frightening for us and we would not have known what to do without Ms. Whalen's help. Once I got out of the hospital, Ms. Whalen continued to be a lifeline. Her compassion and personal involvement are truly wonderful. Whenever we have a question, she picks up the phone immediately or, if she is busy with other matters, she calls us back no later than the end of the day. Ws. Whalen keeps us informed regarding the status of our case and she provides valued guidance. Jeanmarie Whalen's passion for helping and dedication to the practice of advocacy and personal injury law is an example of why people enter the profession - to help others. During my career I had the opportunity of working with many lawyers, Jeanmarie Whalen ranks at the top.

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.
