Jennifer Stanton Hargrave

I still remember having my first conversation with Jennifer. I had a million thoughts in my head as I was falling apart mentally, emotionally and physically from what was about to be the fallout of my 11 year marriage plus three kids. In my own convictions of my own faith, lawyers were never in the cards for me. I was so convinced that we would just work things out and looking back, I was not able to see things for what it was. But what if I waited till now(almost 2 years later) to get perspective? It would’ve been too late. I would’ve lost all the footing I needed to be setup for success concerning my future and what’s best for my kids. That’s where Jennifer comes in. From point A to point Z, Jennifer advocated for me and made sure I had the best situation so I could move forward. She didn’t brush me off or my story off when I initially consulted her. I could be completely honest with her and there were some sensitive details of my story. She genuinely believed in me and who I truly was. I was also in a clergy role at a church and she managed that complexity with class and care. I never ever ever felt like she was a step behind....her and Taylor were super professional and were on top of things every step of the way. They were very patient with me and fought hard to get me what I wanted. I look back now and I’m so grateful. She thought of everything when I couldn’t think of everything. I am now set for the rest of my life to love my kids well and to give myself a fighting chance at life! None of this is an exaggeration. Hargrave Law is the best family law practice. Trust me. I did my research and I consulted with a few people who would be able to handle the complexity of my case and only Jennifer had the integrity and collaborative skill to knock this out of the park. No way would I have gotten the outcome I received without Jennifer! I highly recommend her. Her staff from Stacie to Taylor to the billing folks are super client friendly! Again, Jennifer - She’s attentive and caring but she’s also honest, precise, realistic. She will challenge you and she will ask good questions to truly think about what you really want, helping to weed out stuff that’s not important. Best part is that she has the litigator skill set that when she needs to turn it on, she can switch those gears at any moment. She knows how to manage that tension well...ultimately she advocates for the most collaborative approach that skips out on the drama. Most of the time, this is what’s best for the kids too and for any shot at amicable coparenting. If you’re looking for something like this, don’t look anywhere else. Jennifer and her staff are GOLD!

Jennifer Hargrave helped me stay focused on the my most important goals during my divorce. She explained the process, provided encouragement when needed, and helped me to see past the details that were not worth my emotional and mental energy.
