A Firm That Get's Results & Cares About The Client & The Family

Jennifer took my son's case and worked with diligence and efficiency in order to prove his innocence and have him freed. She and her entire team were very professional, yet caring enough to keep those of us who did not understand all of the legal facts well informed. She used professional investigat...ors who spent the time and effort needed to recover the evidence that aided in a proper defense of my son and positive results. I had dealt with several attorneys before her, both trial and appeal lawyers, and I can say with all honesty that the Bukowsky Law Firm was the best! We felt that we were out of options, had spent an enormous amount of money to no avail, and it was all over for my son, and then as unbelievable as it seems, Jennifer Bukowsky and her team entered the picture and defeat turned to success.

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.
