Jenny Will Win for You

Jenny is an excellent litigator and legal advocate- the best of the best. If you are an honest client with a drive for your child, she will be an exceptional navigator through the az family court system. You can trust her. You might not like what she has to say all the time (or the price, but can you... put a price on the safety and happiness of your child? you’re paying for true expertise) , but she will help you win. She won’t waste your time, she knows her stuff and doesn’t play games. She won’t drag your time out, she doesn’t have to because she true talent. It’s scary when you have to choose a lawyer, but I assure you Jenny will be one decision you don’t regret. I am thankful for an expert like Jenny- you can’t put a price on the safety and happiness of your children. She is the most educated family law professional and if I could, I would choose her again.

Highest Recommendation

I retained this firm, in particular Jenny Gadow, on the recommendation of a family court judge. My desire was to have a knowledgeable, fair attorney to represent my family's best interest in an area where I had no former knowledge how to navigate. From the very first visit throughout a 3 year process... Jenny walked along side us with the help of her professional staffers. I sincerely cannot express my appreciation for her experience, insight, and ability. I invested in this firm over 10 years ago and the payoff has been the security we continue to be blessed with to this day.

Jenny always has your back, no matter what!!!

I am posting this review after working with Jenny for over 4 years. She was highly recommended by a friend and I am so BLESSED that I was able to hire her for my divorce case. Jenny is extremely smart, on point, always organized, explains everything to T.. and never lets you panic. She is very honest... and if she thinks that there is something that she can't do or it's the wrong choice she will never let you make a mistake and shoot yourself in the foot! I love Jenny, and there isn't anyone I would ever replace her with...and trust me I have worked with other lawyers in a different area of practice....I would of hired Jenny but too bad she only practices family law.

Child Custody Case

I am a single Dad in the state of AZ who was awarded sole custody of his daughter. Needless to say this does not happen often, but Jenny did it. She was reassuring all the way, and did a great job of explaining what we were doing and why every step of the way. She's one of my heroes and every part of... my life she has touched has been an enriching experience.

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.
