Review Jennifer Kearney

Thorough, honest and easy to work with.

Posted by

From the moment I spoke with Jennifer on the phone I knew I was in great hands. She exudes knowledge and confidence which definitely helped take the stress out of my situation. She took on my case and we were able to come to an agreement that worked well for both parties in a short amount of time. I thoroughly enjoyed working with her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an attorney. If the need ever arises, I will definitely hire her again.

Knowledgeable, Honest, and Dedicated !!!

Posted by

I was represented better than I could have ever imagined. My needs were put first and was treated as a friend rather than a number. My opinions were valued. My attorney Jennifer Kearney, fought hard for me. She went above and beyond and did everything she could to ensure the best possible outcome. I couldn't have asked for a better attorney than Jennifer Kearney. Highly recommended !!!

Jennifer is the best!

I bought my first home last week and Jennifer was amazing! I waited until the absolute last minute to get a lawyer and she still took the time to explain everything to me and answered every question I had. She will be my first and only choice for any future needs I have. Hire her, you definitely won’t regret it.
