Child Custody

Jennifer is the best family lawyer! She is helpful with explaining what you should expect throughout the custody process, even if it is not always what you want to hear. Jennifer is very personable and always quick to respond to any questions or issues that arise during your case. She helped us to... establish child custody, a parenting plan, and a child support review; and is still there now for any questions or issues that come up. I highly recommend Jennifer!

FABULOUS!

Jeni is an exceptional family law lawyer! She handled our child custody case very professionally, but compassionately as well. She was always prompt to return phone calls and email. We always knew where we stood in the case and the billing. I would recommend her to anyone needing a lawyer with her... expertise!

5 stars is not enough

Jennifer was so kind, understanding, and compassionate with my case. I really felt as though she had my best interests in mind, yet always respected my point of view. Although the nature of my case was relatively straight-forward, I never got the feeling that I was being rushed through the process or... that my case was on "auto-pilot". Jennifer made sure I understood the steps being taken and walked me through the entire process. Knowing what to expect at every turn made the drastically life-changing event much less overwhelming. I chose Jennifer to represent me based on other reviews I had read about her, and I couldn't be more thankful that I did. The stress and intimidation of the legal divorce process was largely minimized once her genuine concern for her clients became evident.

Fabulous Attorney!!!

Jeni was amazing! This was my first, and hopefully my last experience ever using an attorney. As a young mother, I was very unsure of my legal rights when it came to custody of my son. She always answered my questions truthfully, even when the truth may not have been what I wanted to hear. All of my ...concerns were always addressed right away, and I never had to wait long on any information I needed. She was very detailed, timely, friendly, and most importantly, professional. I would absolutely hire her as my attorney again if I ever needed further representation!

Highly recommend!

I hired Jennifer when I was going through my divorce. On our initial consult, she walked me through the entire process. Anytime I had a question or concern, she answered me within a few hours. She kept in contact with me and made sure I was up to date on everything that was happening. I've had friend...s who have gone through nightmare divorces, so I was a bit worried about how it would turn out. She made things quick and painless. She's incredibly intelligent and friendly. Everyone I spoke to at the law office was welcoming. I highly recommend her and the firm she works for. I'm thankful for everything she did for me. She's a rockstar!

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.
