Family lawyer | Oct 10

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I was opposing counsel on a matter with Jennifer Benedict. It was a contentious, stressful trial with a lot of fighting between our respective clients. I found Jennifer to be very professional, communicative, and she fought very hard for her client. I was so impressed with her, that after I moved from the area, I referred all my family law clients to her. She is a fierce advocate."
