Jennifer Winstead is AMAZING!

I called Jennifer for legal advice after receiving papers that I was being sued. I was completely surprised that she actually answered her phone and gave me straightforward guidance during that initial call. I knew right then that I needed to hire her. Jennifer explained everything to me in term...s that I could understand. She knows the law and how to navigate our difficult judicial system. Not only is Jennifer a genuine professional and an expert in her field; she is honest and truly compassionate. She completely put me at ease in a very difficult situation. AND to top it all off, Jennifer very tactfully fought for me and I ‘won’ the case. I have referred several people to Jennifer, and will continue to as long as she is practicing... (of course she will be my attorney for life as well)

THE BEST.!!

... remembering that gut wrenching feeling when I felt I needed to consult a lawyer... it doesn’t matter the reason... whether it’s good or bad..it simply is never easy... ... The first lawyer I ever hired was Jennifer... and the last lawyer I ever hire, will be Jennifer.. ... for whatever reason..... We were having a lot of problems with paperwork coming out of the court.. no fault of anyone’s but the court.. and Jennifer hit homeruns for me all the way through it... I whole heartedly felt she was doing every single thing she could do.. I would recommend her over and over again.. She was nothing but honest with everything, through everything... She’s who everyone needs...

Saved my life

I was dragged into drama with false allegations that could have put me behind bars. I had no way to prove my innocence. I had a consultation with this lawyer and to be honest I thought she wasn’t for me, she was so nice and I couldn’t imagine her being able to fight for me. But I chose to retain her ...and boy am I glad I did. She fought tooth and nail for me. I could have been sued and thrown into prison- the lies were that bad. I originally met with her as a last resort, I read she had good reviews for real-estate law so I met with her to inquire about transferring my titles and adjusting my will renaming my estate etc. I was so nervous I feared checking my own mailbox scared I’d get the legal court summons. I had been threatened and harassed by the drama far too long, it was only a matter of time. And I needed to do something about it. Jennifer relieves people from stress. She calmed every nerve. She was so bubbly and her personality is radiant. Again, I found her from looking into real estate lawyers in the Bloomfield area, because I was at my wits end. I thought I needed to redistribute my assets and put my house and everything I had worked for into my adult child’s name in order to protect myself from losing it all because of lies. I went in to change the ownership, and went out with clarity and confidence. Miss Wintsdead knows what she’s doing. For her clients and for the court room. She is so smart and all the paper work was perfect. She had other cases and her home life but I felt like I was number 1. Never rushed and never really even waited, she was always fast to respond, and quick to document stuff regarding my case. And in preparation for a court hearing we didn’t even discuss putting my belongings into another’s name she thought that was crazy that I even thought to do that, she pulled through too, she saved my house and my car and most importantly my life, my reputation and my good name. I completely recommend Jennifer Wintsdead for Criminal,Family, and Real-estate Legal Issues. She was a real winner and worked hard to protect me. She reviews and reviews and reviews her work from all angles and produces thorough paper work and an expert representation. My accuser was found guilty of multiple things and I don’t think I could have been happier with anyone other than Miss Winstdead. Thanks Jen. And Jen definitely wins.

Jennifer is wonderful!

She was there for everything, she has worked on my divorce case for a few months now. Whenever I needed an answer, she would call me to let me know. Step by step she was there, if I wanted something done, she made sure it happened. I recommend her, if you need someone to represent you.
