Diane B.~Divorce Client

I was completely impressed with Jennifer from the moment I met her until my divorce was finalized! During all settlement discussions, she was extremely professional, in control, and focused on my needs. She made every effort to reach a fair settlement and protected my interests at every turn. Her fol...low up was thorough and very timely! I never had to ask for feedback, as Jennifer always replied to my concerns within a matter of hours and always addressed every single issue. Don’t let her quiet, composed nature fool you...when she has to fight for you, she will stand her ground to make sure you have the best outcome possible. From a financial standpoint, the cost of my divorce was very reasonable and I received monthly statements regarding charges and the balance remaining in my trust. I can’t speak highly enough about Jennifer or Sterling Law! Jennifer provided a sense of stability that was extremely helpful during my divorce proceedings, and I will certainly be using her services for any future legal needs.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
