Caring

Jennifer helped us make wills and estate planning. After my husband died, everything fell into place just as she planned. She helped me and was very sympathetic. Hi

Excellent, efficient service

We needed to redo our trust from 16 years ago. Jennifer was so easy to work with. She made our revised trust easier to administer for our kids. And it's especially nice to have the assurance that she will be there for our kids when they need assistance with trust admin. Thanks Jennifer!

Spectacular, Well Informed, Caring, The Absolute Best Attorney for Trusts!!!!

Jennifer McKenna managed to take an original trust from 21 years ago and the revised trust from last year, that was poorly handled, to make it more concise, easier to understand and at a very reasonable price. She clearly knows the laws related to trusts. She's attentive to the clients. She gets... quick results and I have recommended her to several others. Her staff is just as reliable and can be depended on for their assistance as well.

Exceptional Experience!

Jennifer seamlessly guided us through the estate planning process in recent weeks. During our consultation, she carefully listened to our goals and leveraged her years of experience to meet them in our plan. We were put at ease with her commitment to establishing a long term relationship with our f...amily. Her entire team is efficient and demonstrated excellent follow through communication at every point of the process. I value her integrity and professionalism, she is absolutely focused in this legal specialty and that was an important consideration for us when selecting a lawyer. Jennifer is Highly recommended!

Outstanding service, outstanding product

After a change in our family situation, my wife and I decided it was time to update some old estate planning documents but we weren't quite sure how to make sure everything was covered. Jennifer and her staff helped us through every step. They were extremely knowledgeable and professional. The face-...to-face meetings we had were very thorough and detailed. The final product was impressive, something that anyone can use to quickly and easily determine what our wishes are. I am confident we got the very best legal service anyone could get. Estate planning is something everyone needs to do. I would recommend McKenna Family Law to anyone who is serious about getting a comprehensive estate plan.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
