Review Jennifer Rose

Divorce Modification--she's the best

Posted by

Jennifer helped me with a divorce modification. We had to modify my child support and visitation. What I loved is that she didn't wait to file documents, she immediately got to work on my case. She got my visitation increased and the child support to what it should have been to begin with instead of the ridiculously high number that the other side had insisted on--a number that would have left me unable to even pay my bills each month. Trust me, its not that I don't want to support my kids but as a father, I have to also keep a roof over my head. I hate that so many dads get a bad rap who actually take care of their kids. (Although I know there are some deadbeat dads out there!) I am just thankful that Jennifer cares about her clients. She even took the time to look at my kids pictures and took the time to get to know me as a person. This meant so much to me. I have used other attorney's in the past, unfortunately, who didn't care about me and my family they just cared about the bottom dollar. I am so glad that I used Jennifer Rose and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a family law attorney.
Jennifer Rose's response: Thank you for taking time to review me. It means a lot when people take time out to tell others about their experiences. I hope you and the kids are still doing well, God bless.

Outstanding lawyer with an equally outstanding team

Posted by

Mrs. Rose came highly recommended to me for custody by a friend who was a former client and she did not disappoint. I actually had no idea that she had two great attorneys working for her as well though, they were a great help to me and my wife at a dark time in my life and best of all I got everything I had initially asked for and then some. Best group of lawyers I've ever used.
Jennifer Rose's response: Wow, thank you. I'm honored that you would consider us so highly, I know you've had your fair share of lawyers. Thank you for sharing. Hope things are well with you, if you ever need us again our door is always open. God bless.

Great Lawyer, excellent service

Posted by

Jennifer and her associate Katherine Wright handled my case and were very professional and helpful. They both seemed very experienced in my opinion and always able to quickly answer my questions and concerns about my case and my former wife's behavior. In the end I made out far better in my divorce than I had even asked or hoped for. Highly recommended. :)

Wonderful Attorney

Posted by

After interviewing several attorneys for my divorce, Jennifer Rose stood out as the best. I knew the minute I sat down with her that she would take me through the divorce process with my children's best interest in mind and keep me focused on what was important. Her experience in family law is what sealed the deal. Over the agonizing months of the divorce process, I put my trust in Jennifer Rose and her dedication helped me get the outcome I was happy with. Her entire staff was understanding, helpful and efficient. She was was confident, direct, clear and thorough with her answers to my questions. Choosing the right lawyer makes all the difference. I made the right decision choosing Jennifer Rose.
Jennifer Rose's response: Thank you so much, Lori! You have been a great client and you are an even greater mother. I'm glad we were able to set things right for you. My door is always open for you, feel free to stop in and see us any time.

Peace of mind

Posted by

I have my first appointment this Wednesday and after reading these comments I am feeling the possibility of Hope. I've been divorced 2 years and my ex pays child support at his convenience, gets out child at his convenience and puts more effort into his now live in mistress and her four children. I'm hoping to get justice and peace of mind instead being stuck in this never ending nightmare that stresses me to the max and keeps me exhausted emotionally. I hope my results are as positive as the others who have commented. I believe God leads us to people for a reason when we've prayed for peace for so long. My heart is feeling confident.
Jennifer Rose's response: Julie, Thank you for putting your trust in us. Glad we were able to be a help.

Professional, knowledgeable, divorce lawyer who works and fights hard for her clients.

Very patient with a case that was drawn out by opposing party. Understanding to clients frustrations. Persistent in resolving matters that were delayed by opposing party. Knowlegeable of other states laws regarding child support. Firm, when needs to be. Fair, competent, dependable. Office staff, proficient in relaying detailed messages, returns call promptly and maintains professional at all times, even when dealing with stressed client.
Jennifer Rose's response: Thank you very much Terri. I'm glad we were able to be there for you to help make a stressful situation caused by your ex a little less stressful. We take great pride in making things right for our clients. My door is always open should you need me for anything else. God bless. Jennifer

Great in court

Posted by

Jennifer made me comfortable with how the process should work and the outcome she was trying to get me. When we got to court I felt she was on top of things and very aggressive in fighting for me and I got the feeling she cared as opposed to my exes attorney who seemed to be going through the motions. She obviously cares about her job and seems to know the law much better than my last attorney.
Jennifer Rose's response: Thank you so much for the compliments, I was more than happy to help you. If you ever need me again, my door is always open. God Bless

Great divorce lawyer

Posted by

Jennifer did great on my case and was very professional. I felt she was very upfront with me and got an outcome that I was dreaming of. Smart smart lady.
Jennifer Rose's response: Thank you so much. I'm always delighted when my clients are happy, it makes all the late nights worth it. God bless, Jennifer

Excellent attorney. Competent, effective, passionate...TRUSTWORTHY. I highly recommend the Rose Law Firm

Posted by

I was very pleased and impressed with the expertise, motivation and aggressive philosophy of Attorney Jennifer Rose. I was thoroughly and consistently satisfied. After trying to make progress in my case for a duration of more than four years - and just about as many lawyers - it was not until the Rose Firm took over that I got anywhere. I finally was able to achieve a victorious conclusion to a long, frustrating, exhausting and expensive ordeal. Trust is so important in the Attorney/ Client relationship. Ms. Rose proved her trustworthiness consistently. Furthermore, she is very fair and ethical in billing practices. On any occasion when I had an issue or question with billing she resolved the problem fairly and courteously. My advise to anyone involved in any sort of litigation is to invest in a good lawyer from the start. I absolutely highly recommend the Rose Law Firm.
Jennifer Rose's response: Kathleen, it was my pleasure to help you get reunited with your boys and I'm thrilled you are getting them back in time for Easter. Cases like yours is exactly why I'm in this line of work. Thank you so much for your comments, my door is always open if you need me in the future. God Bless

Great results and followup

Posted by

Mrs. Rose is fantastic. She got me exactly what I was looking for and then some in my divorce! My exhusband cheated on me and thought he was going to get away with it without paying a dime to me, WRONG! The judge ended up throwing the book at him and I got a nice sum of money to restart my life with. When he was slow to pay after my case I told Jennifer and she took care of it for me in record time. I couldn't have really asked for more :) I have since personally recommended her to anyone I know thinking about divorce
Jennifer Rose's response: Thank you, Deb. God bless. Call me should you need further assistance. Jennifer
