Very Knowledgeable on Estate Disputes

Jennifer took on my somewhat complex Trust administration issues. She took the time to talk to me and understand all the relevant pieces so she could give me solid direction in closing out my mother's Trust. I would recommend Jennifer for anyone needing help in this area.

J McKenna

Jennifer and her entire staff were very pleasant to work with and they provided all the information that was requested and reviewed the details of the work. Jennifer was very willing to answer any questions I had regarding the issues at hand.

Excellent customer service

Jennifer McKenna was very professional and thorough. She took the time to go over any and all questions we had. The documents were for our son who is blind and doesn't hear well. Jennifer accommodated his every need and was very careful to make sure he understood what he was signing. She was very... kind and still very professional.

Estate of Jackie Cramer

I highly recommend Jennifer McKenna. The Probate process is never easy and Jennifer and her team helped me and my family navigate the probate process. Especially on those days that were very trying.

Thorough and Easy to Understand

I am very pleased with Jennifer McKenna's preparation of my Estate Plan. She took the time to get to know me, and to educate and guide me in making decisions about my estate. Jennifer is competent, friendly and easy to talk to about my specific needs and desires. Working with her gave me a sense of... peace. I highly recommend Jennifer McKenna for her legal expertise, and will consult her for future matters of this nature.

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.
