Exceeds expectations

Since the 1st phone call I had with Jennifer, I have been able to breathe for the first time in many many years. She makes you feel understood and protected. Her and her team went above and beyond for me to win my case and they were so kind and helpful throughout the whole process. They genuinely car...e about people and do everything they can to help! They even set up a generous payment plan when I couldn't get together all of the money quick enough. Thanks to Winstead Law, my family and I can finally feel safe and relax. I had a high conflict custody case with so much documentation and Jennifer handled my case with such a high level of professionalism that the judge even complimented her! I am so grateful and blessed to have found her and you will be too! Thank you for being there for me in the worst time of my life and winning the case that I was honestly was beginning to believe was hopeless... Thanks for saving my family ❤️

Amazing, compassionate, caring

From the moment I called Jennifer for a consultation she was exactly what I needed! She was going on maternity leave and I knew I had to wait for her to help me through this hard time! Boy was it worth it! When I was flooded with emotions after coming to the realization that I needed to move forward ...with divorce she listened to me cry and I truly felt like a friend that she cared about 100% while still being professional. She was there for me every step of the way, not only was she always easy to reach and dependable she and she had JUST had a baby! She is an angel and is the only person you should consider hiring for your legal needs!

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)

Top Notch

Jennifer is the absolute best! She has assisted our family in several regards over the last 7 years. Representing us with the highest dignity and utmost class. Prompt to return calls and advise on any situation presented. She even went as far as scheduling a closing, to take place AT A HOSPITAL, for ...the sale of my parents home while my father was recovering from a stroke. Jennifer made what was a very trying and stressful time for my parents, very smooth and comforting. We as a family have recommended Jennifer multiple times and will continue to do so! Thank you, Jennifer! You are amazing!

More than an attorney

When I decided to separate from my ex. I contacted Jennifer. Jennifer took into account my overall situation and provided me with all of my potential legal options, which any attorney could do, but what Jennifer also did was let me know what to expect emotionally- the good, the bad and the ugly. She... offered not only her services but herself to me. She was there to listen to me when my ex was upsetting me or being unreasonable. Jennifer has an attorney you get the best of both worlds for a horrible situation; she is a therapist and a friend. I wasn’t just another case I was someone she cared about and my children’s well-being was her top priority just like mine. Jennifer navigated me through the each step of the divorce process and what to expect legally and emotionally. Jennifer was more than just my lawyer she supported me through all the ups and downs of going through a divorce. She gave me the hope that I needed when I thought there was none. I would recommend her to anyone who needed an awsome lawyer.
