Amazing attorney

Jennifer is an amazing attorney who always has the child and clients best interest at heart. She fought for and achieved what was the best outcome for my child with schooling and custody. She was always available by email or phone when I had concerns and/or questions, and she always kept me in the l...oop as to what was going on with the case. She was also very informative in explaining the common practices involved legally with every aspect of my case. I would highly recommend her for any type of case where children are involved.

Patient & Supportive

Jennifer was amazing throughout my divorce. It took me a long time to complete the paperwork; and she never pushed me to complete it; and was always very supportive of my needs and my timeline. Once I did complete everything, she stayed on top of all the necessary steps and everything was completed... in a timely and orderly fashion. She is very professional and extremely knowledgeable. I would highly recommend her.

Do yourself a favor, look for someone else!

It took a year to do a simple divorce (teenage kids, no property involved). She was more concerned about judge liking her than helping me. I could never reach her on her phone, always somewhere helping other clients, on vacation, out of town, you name it. I would have been better off if my ex's at...torney represented us both, if that is even possible. Going through divorce is very stressful, I am not an attorney, and I felt that I was left on my own. In the end, she made me feel like she did me a big great favor by having my ex who got half of my pension, my sister's money, the house, one of the two cars (which I maintained payments on) and all the visitations he asked for. I got a five figure bill and an invitation to have a glass of wine. By the way, she is a very socially active drinker and smokes sigars. She failed to protect my property, would not give me any kind of useful advice, more concerned with "not knowing in case she was questioned" or "not advising me anything that could be used against her legal ethics". I had to split the custody with my ex 50/50, and as soon as he got the agreement, he gave up seeing kinds completely. All he cared about was not paying child support he would have if the kids' schedule reflected what actually happened. Please, open a phone book and pick someone else, anyone else.

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.
