Most trustworthy lawyer

Jeanette is the most trustworthy, knowledgeable, and communicable lawyer I've worked with over the years. Jeanette is very professional, always follows through with what she says she will do, is very responsive to any questions you may have. She will not lead you the wrong way as she is very honest... and will inform you of any and all consequences regarding your situation. There is a lot of stress when a person is going through Divorce, Separation or Bankruptcy, I know first hand, and Jeanette was always there to explain things in a calm manner that "things will be ok, you don't have to worry, I will take care of it for you". She makes the legal process a very comfortable feeling!

Terrific Divorce Attorney

Ms. Tuzinski, represented me through a difficult divorce that rendered much sensitivity. She was a voice for me when I felt I did not have one. Ms. Tuzinski's bold personality and knowledge of the law processes are a winning combination. If you are in need of someone to stand in your corner to hel...p you through a difficult battle of divorce or seperation, Ms. Tuzinski is my recommendation for you.

EASY GOING, REASONABLY PRICED, KIND

When I was looking for an attorney to handle my recent divorce, Jeanette was recommended to me by an attorney that worked in my same building. I had no idea what to expect during a divorce and she made the entire process easy, understandable and reasonably inexpensive. She was kind, understanding an...d very professional. She walked me through every detail and explained things in a way that made it very easy to understand. If your looking for a fantastic attorney, I would recommend Jeanette.

Knowledgeable/ Hard working

This is my 2nd time having to use Jeanette. Every time I talk with her, I hang up the phone thinking to myself I like her more and more. Very knowledgeable of the laws and advised me greatly as to my options and made sure I truly understood what was going on. She didn't just advise me to do something... just to make the case easier. Truly helped fight for me and my cause, and didn't allow me to get sandbagged. Any questions I had she was always quick to respond and put my mind at ease. She really knows how to pack a punch for closing arguments in court. Great lawyer!!!!!!!!!!!

Child custody

Jeanette has been great to work with. We always feel like we have her 100% attention and she follows through in a timely manner when the ball is in her court. She is organized and watches deadlines like a hawk, and nothing gets past her. She is an excellent leader, cuts to the chase and her confidenc...e and knowledge of the process has helped enormously to keep our stress levels at a minimum. She cuts out unneccesary documents or processes that have helped to keep our costs to a minimum. We would highly recommend her.

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.
