This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

HORRIBLE LAWYER 0/10

This lawyer was the most insensitive rude lawyer I have ever had the misfortune of meeting. She kept non of my information disclosed, she was rude, and said terrible things. She doesn’t NOT CARE about her clients at all. LACKS COMPLETE EMPATHY. Doesn’t do her job and relies on other lawyers to do her... job for her. She is NEVER available is always taking vacations and spending time at “family events”. If you want someone who will over charge and do a piss poor job and make you feel terrible about your choice for adoption THIS IS THE ONE! BEWARE horrible manners would not recommend

Excellent advocate

Jenny was a great person to deal with the issues of my divorce and took the lead in the process of the collaborative divorce.

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.
