I had been told that my case would be difficult by other Attorneys, due to my past criminal conviction. After Speaking with Jennifer and Angelia I finally felt heard and not pre-judged. Jennifer saw that I was doing everything in my power to see my child and do the right thing. I too have rights. The other party was reminded that I have rights as a parent and cannot get away with abusing the system. Thank you for sticking by me.

We had a complicated custody/child support case that involved three states and we also had a very litigious other party. Jennifer helped us through it all and she was simply amazing! She was always prompt in her responses, never left us hanging with unanswered questions and was great at following up, even when further problems arose years after the original case was resolved. She is very thorough and went beyond expectations to help us get the best possible result for me and my child. Through the course of this case and up to now, after dealing with different lawyers in all three states, she’s still the best we’ve lawyer we’ve had.

Jennifer was the 5th lawyer I had spoken with on the phone when I was in search for a divorce lawyer. She was the first one to actually listen to my concerns and hear what my problems were. She automatically made me feel comfortable and is what let me to choose her. When the process actually started I was very stressed out. From my situation being one thing before filing it turned into something completely different and became very stressful but she was always responsive and explained things more clearer for me to understand them. My concerns were always addressed and feedback was always given promptly by her colleagues, they never danced around any question I had. When my ex started to drag out the divorce past what I was prepared for and expecting she helped me through that and worked with me on getting everything completed and a lot of what I wanted from it. Thank you to everyone at the firm that helped get my case settled!

Hired Jennifer about a year ago and I didn't know anything about divorce law. Jennifer is very knowledgeable and answered all my questions and information I needed to get through the difficult time with my divorce. I highly recommend her if you want a dependable & knowledgeable lawyer.

Jennifer was professional, helpful, patient and level-headed during this emotional time for me. She answered all of my questions in great detail and in a timely manner. She was always just an e-mail or phone call away. She gave sound and thoughtful advice. She really listened to my situation and helped me make decisions based on her knowledge and my wishes. She made me feel confident in how we were proceeding with this divorce. My ex wanted to sue me for a ridiculous sum of money, while taking all of my liquid assets; none of which happened. There were child custody/support issues, property, my ex's paramour and their unborn child adding to make an emotional mix, as well as opposing counsel frequently being ill-prepared. Her advice took everything into consideration and she kept me from becoming rattled. Her staff was also extremely polite and helpful. We were able to settle at mediation and I am very pleased with the way everything has turned out. This divorce ended with me in a better place both emotionally and financially.

Divorce is messy and mine was no different. This was probably one of the most emotional events in my life. At times I felt with all the odd twist and turns I was living in a bad Jerry Springer episode. I had also never been through a divorce before, and knew little about the process. Jennifer was there every step of the way offering very wise counsel, advice and listening even when my emotions were running at a fever pitch high. Her knowledge of family law I feel is par none. She never told me anything that wrong. When I felt I was going to be taken for retirement being in the military and even the dog I dearly loved. She saved both. She made me feel as if I was a part of the process in the case by providing information in my case. I felt like I was not alone in what I was going through. She always kept me informed and answered every question no matter how trivial in nature. She was always ready to challenge the other side and never ever backed down from fight with them questioning everything they threw at me. She is hawk in any venue wither it is mediation or court. If you are another lawyer going up against her you should know her and her client will be ready for you. She will not back down. Jennifer has to be the most outstanding attorney I have every meet she is compassionate, willing to listen even when you are venting and then bring you back on track with your goals. You will not feel like you are being judged or looked down on by her. She understands the military retirement system and TSP better than any lawyer I have ever heard of. If you are in the Military she is the lawyer you will want in your comer. She will assist you in setting realistic expectation and goal in your divorce. She will explain TX family law to you until she is sure you understand it. She will leave no stone unturned when she represent you. I will tell anyone hire her she is the lawyer you want.
