Lawyer Review for Ms. J. Pernas

Ms. Pernas's was very knowledgeable in assisting me with my legal issue. She had my best interest at all times, and kept me updated through the entire process. I commend her on her professionalism in and out of the courtroom.

Very satisfied

I would like to recommend the attorney Jennifer Pernas. She managed my divorce proceedings with professionalism and accuracy. She also has a great team supporting her who were always willing to accommodate my personal requirements. I would not hesitate to use her services again if I ever need it. She... is also bilingual (English/Spanish) which was a big plus.

Excellent Immigration Attorney

Jennifer Pernas guided my wife and I through the complex requirements of applying for a Green Card. Furthermore, she provided advice on the best course of actions to take whenever we were at a decision point. Would definitely recommend her for knowledge and expertise.
