Just Wonderful

Jeanette knows what she's doing. She has helped me with trying to get out of a controlling marriage. Given me places to talk to. Knowing my rights. I can't thank her enough.

Excellent Divorce Attorney

I'm a father of 3 and retained Jeannette to represent me in a divorce. Jeannette helped guide me through a very stressful period of my life. She provided excellent legal guidance, was prompt in answering questions and helped get me a very fair arrangement in my divorce. I would recommend her services... to any dad out there.

Down to earth, Very knowledgeable & Always available for me!!

I called Jeannette when I was served papers from my Ex-husband stating he was suing me for not complying to part of our divorce from over 10 years ago ~ Our kids were now adults and I was re-married. He was actually suing me for his portion of the equity in my home OR for me to "write-off" his child... support arrears that he still owed from years ago. He bullied me with his big-shot attorney and I was scared. I called Jeannette, since she handled my parent's divorce years ago; I recalled meeting her & thought she was great back then... Well she stood up for ME this time & fought for me when I couldn't. We saved my house AND my child support arrears! She returned all of my phone-calls & e-mails, never made me feel like I was a pain - even when I KNOW I was (lol!) and she followed through the to very end until I collected every penny of support from the Ex. I would very highly recommend her for divorce and/or any family court matters. I fully intend to hire her for my next divorce! lol!

Reliable Family Law Attorney

I’m very pleased with the representation that Jeanette Tuzinski provided during a family law case that was being made difficult and complicated by the opposing side. Jeanette Tuzinski was successful in achieving a fair settlement for me. Jeanette Tuzinski has the needed experience and history deal...ing with cases in Anoka County and others. I’ve adopted Tuzinski & Zick as my primary source for help with any future legal matters.

Great representation, very knowledgeable, honest and caring!

I was referred to Jeanette with high praise and was I was highly impressed after working with her. Jeanette is unbelievable knowledgeable, caring and compassionate. She was able to help find solutions to my legal inquiries surrounding and finances and custody. She was very clear and concise and wh...ile asking very good probing questions to ensure accuracy. She is truly an attorney that is looking after your best interest; I’ve worked with numerous other lawyers which have advised they are representing in my best interest but you can probably guess what their interests were… Jeanette was not like the others, and was willing to put forth the effort to help as much as she could. I was very impressed with her expertise and her compassionate attitude. I would highly recommend Jeanette and will my contact for any future counsel.
