Jody E. Jernigan

I hired Jody after one meeting. She listened to my concerns and requests. She let me know all of my options if my requests were not approved by my soon to be ex. With care and guidance, the divorce was completed with as much as can be. I would definitely refer her to anyone wanted someone professiona...l and caring that will also listen to your needs.

I was very pleased with Jody! I needed to file an order with my ex-husband's workplace about getting the portion of his retirement that I was awarded. He tried to be a real jerk about it but Jody was very tough and professional and got him to sign the order in no time! I will definitely call her agai...n if I need a lawyer.

Jody was an incredible advocate for me as she represented me in the divorce process. She offered a free consultation and explained that she knew I wasn't ready yet but shared the process with me for if/when I was ready to file. She was always calm and confident, which relieved my anxiety and allowe...d the process of divorce move forward fluidly. Her professional rapport with the judge and other professionals involved also made the process smoother and more comfortable. Jody recommended books to help me understand personal dynamics that were in play within my dissolving marriage. She could charge a much higher hourly rate but continues to be reasonable and accessible to all people in need of her service. I have recommended Jody several times since I hired her in 2013. Every person that has followed up on my recommendation has thanked me and affirmed the positive words I have stated above. True to her words, it took me 4 months to finally wake up and say "enough is enough." It was a blessing to hire her as my attorney. She was an awesome advocate, teacher, and encourager.
