Posted by anonymous | April 14, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Divorce Attorney

My divorce and custody battle was one of the most drawn out, stressful processes because of some very large issues that occurred with my ex-husband. Jennie studied my case and knew my history and story inside out and backwards. She answered every question and took every issue very seriously. She work...ed tirelessly for me and the best interest of my daughter. She was the calm in the storm for me. Her level of integrity is outstanding. Jennie keeps things very real with you at all times and wants to make sure you are prepared for any outcome, but she will fight for you every step of the way. If I ever need an attorney for anything again, Jennie will be my first call. I truly would not recommend anyone else.

Jennie's a excellent lawyer

Avvo Rating

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.
