Jennifer Jo McKenna

While I have not hired Jennifer, the time and service gave would lead one to think I had. The one who took my initial call was friendly, helpful, and set up our appointment at a satisfactory time. The inquiries had to do with a elder with dementia, family dynamics, and legalities-including finances.... As could be expected, Jennifer is a great listener. Further, she has personal experience in dealing with someone with dementia and the evolving host of challenges and logistics therein. This enabled her to truly relate in such a way that shows she really knows all the aspects involved. In truth, her advice was not steered toward hiring her for this issue at this time. Rather, her advice was steered to finding a more amicable and less complicated solution among family members. More specifically, the inquiry circled around the income/finances of a family member with dementia and the logistics of an equitable distribution while also managing the logistics of caregiving. Our discussion revealed her valuable insight. I would recommend Jennifer for issues of this type. Further, I’ll be glad to trust Jennifer to handle the legalities and related aspects my own trust.

We couldn't be more thankful that we hired Jennifer's legal services to handle our grandmothers elder abuse case that involved both nursing home abuse and family abuse. She was honest, caring, forthright, and extremely strong when having to deal with the nursing home, family matters, and the reportin...g of abuse. She also made sure the transition out of the facility was as quick and smooth as it could be considering the horrible circumstances. We, as well as our grandmother, are grateful, and would highly recommend Jennifer to anyone for her expertise, tenacity, and compassion.

I hired Ms. McKenna to advise me on how to represent my terminally ill sister. Time was of the essence in this situation and Jennifer exceeded all expectations. She met my sister and I at the hospital, and explained all of our options. She and her amazing team went into overdrive to draw up all of th...e documents and paperwork that are required to keep Sis's estate out of probate and to have all of her directives followed as she wished. My sis passed 2 days later with all documents and paperwork filed and in order. My sister's heirs all live in other states, so they hired Jennifer to handle the estate. The estate was settled without a glitch due to the preplanning Jennifer provided.Not only is Ms McKenna an attorney of the highest caliber, she is a kind and understanding person. Her advice, guidance and compassion at this most difficult time was so appreciated by my sister's heirs, family, and especially me.

Jennifer is extremely knowledgeable, kind and patient. She is well versed in elder law and truly understands the specific needs and concerns of precious elder family members. Jennifer came to my dad's home to ensure he was comfortable with the estate planning process. She was on time and professional.... My dad (who can be just a bit stubborn) immediately felt at ease with Jennifer. After his first meeting with Jennifer, dad shared with me that he 'really liked that lady. She's a good person.'. Trust is so important and as my dad's daughter, I have no doubt Jennifer has my father's best interests at heart. She has also been a much needed lifeline when walking thru changes due to the aging process. Jennifer McKenna is truly a GEM and I highly recommend her services.
