Jennifer is a highly competent and compassionate attorney
Jennifer was responsive, kind and honest about what we could achieve legally while still getting the best deal possible. She has lived through what most of her clients are experiencing, which aside from her exceptional litigation skills, makes her even more qualified to practice family law.

Not enough space to explain how good she is
I am not the most well-spoken person, but I will try to leave a helpful review. I hired Jennifer in the middle of a divorce with children (and abuse). She cleaned up my pro se mess and put my end of the divorce back on equal ground. Jennifer definitely more than earned her fees by being available ...

"Ms. Nielsen is very knowledgable in the area of family law and appears to genuinely be concerned with helping people. I endorse this attorney!"
"I've been seeing the many answers by Jennifer on this site, particularly in the area of family law and related areas although her practice is not limited to family law. She is also engaged in two complex areas of law, employment and civil rights. Jennifer's answers to those asking questions are well thought out and no doubt helpful to those seeking legal information. What Jennifer doesn't do, like many attorney here unfortunately do, is just tell the asker to see an attorney. Her responses provide real information and it is a credit to her to devote the time and energy it takes to engage on Avvo. Without hesitation, I endorse Ms. Nielsen as an attorney."
