About Jennifer
Biography
Jennifer is a strong advocate for her clients, whether in settlement negotiations or in the courtroom. She has litigation experience in both family law court trials and has conducted jury trials. She communicates with her client to determine what is important them, to determine their goals and to advise them if their goals can realistically be attained.
She takes the time to guide her clients through the legal process so they know what to expect and can make an informed decision. Jennifer is thorough in her handling of cases and clients take comfort in knowing their interests are well represented. Additionally, Jennifer makes a point to be available to her clients; whether by phone, e-mail or an in person appointment.
Jennifer is well respected in the local legal community. She has been described by fellow attorneys as being highly intelligent, ethical and an accomplished family law attorney. When appropriate in a case, she fights hard and effectively for her clients, but always assesses each case individually to determine if being aggressive is the appropriate path to take in the case. Jennifer is also an effective negotiator and is able to resolve many issues without the need for litigation. She strikes a great balance between advocating on behalf of her client and resolving matters amicably.
