During her years at Wittenberg, she was an intern at the Clark County prosecutor's office and the Office of University Communications at Wittenberg University. While studying Law at Capital, Jennifer gained priceless experience as an extern for the Family Advocacy clinic and CASA of Franklin County, and as a Legal Intern at Capital University Legal Clinic and Barr, Jones & Associates LLP.
It was during these intern and extern experiences that Jennifer received hands on experience representing clients under the supervision of attorneys at the clinic in Domestic, Probate, Guardian Ad Litem, and Step-parent Adoption cases.
Jennifer also had the opportunity to act as a research assistant for Professor Floyd Weatherspoon where she assisted him in drafting and updating his textbook, “African American Males for U.S. Justice System of Marginalization” for his seminar called, "African American Males and the Law”.
Jennifer began her career at Barr, Jones & Associates LLP as a legal Intern where her passion for working with the everyday person was cultivated. Jennifer's dedication and knowledge led her to a Legal Assistant position in the Family Law Department and the Bankruptcy Department. In this role, she was responsible for interacting with clients and preparing legal documents and bankruptcy petitions. In addition, after being admitted to the Ohio bar, she began in-depth training in client management, which included representing clients in criminal, domestic and bankruptcy hearings.
It was as the Legal Assistant for the Bankruptcy Department that Jennifer's skills were proven and she was chosen to be the Head Attorney in the Bankruptcy Department. After multiple months of intensive training with our Partners, Jason F. Barr and Andrew D. Jones, handling of numerous cases and close supervision, Jennifer is now the Active Head Attorney of the Bankruptcy Department of the Columbus Metro Office and handles all Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcies in the central Ohio Area. As described by one of her client's, Jennifer is "very helpful and like family". Jennifer is the type of Attorney that "stays right with you through every inch {of your case} to help {you}".
