Trustworthy, Reliable, and Knowledgable

I have worked with Jeanette to help navigate 2 family members divorce cases. She was both kind and understanding during both cases, and always took the time to explain each step of the process. She really fought for what was in the best interest of our family and was not willing to let the other pa...rties drag things out. She always took our phone calls, and responds to emails very quickly. She also has a great sense of humor to help navigate this difficult and emotional time. We never felt like she was giving us the run around. I would recommend her to anyone, and I loved working with her. She really made the process easy and understood our emotions throughout. She truly cares about each case.

Lawyer you can trust

When I first met Jeanette, I felt that she genuinely cared about my situation. She carefully listened and took actions right on. Jeanette evaluated the whole case and advised me on the things were important to focus on, not only for the sake of my case but also for the sake of my personal and emotio...nal health. going through a custody battle can consume you a lot, but having Jeanette as a Lawyer I was able to feel peace knowing that I was in good hands. Having a case on a tough County that fairly support women, Being myself a Latino going against a White woman and having 4 kids with 3 girls, I felt I had lost my case from the start...we were going against all Odds, but having Jeanette as a good lawyer you can trust, I was able to win the case and get sole custody of my kids! Thank you Jeanette!

New Beginnings

Out of no where I found myself in need of legal representation. I was literally lost and at the lowest point in my life. Jeanette's expertise put me in the game. I was on even playing grounds. Her mannerism calmed me through out the entire process and I felt very comfortable in the court room at her ...side. Jeanette always returned my calls, if she was not readily available and her secretary is wonderful, too. I can sincerely recommend Jeanette M. Tuzinski should you find yourself in need of her services.

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!

Great Job

Was very helpful in explaining everything and went over any questions we had. No surprises, which was great. Took the time needed with us and was great when we went before the courts. I would strongly refer her to anyone looking for a great attorney. All paperwork was handle with care and filled when... she told us it would be.
