This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Run, Run, Run

To begin, I had never hired an attorney so I didn't know what to expect. I was in need of a child custody attorney and when I first let with her she seemed pleasant. She was kind and seemed to be very professional. However, after I hired her she never once answered her calls and when I would go in to... see her, her receptionist would go to the back and "see if she was in"; which she was apparently never once in when I attempted to see her. I never got a single question answered through phone, email, or in person. Then at our court date she wanted to speak with me about mediation, so she began to explain things then abruptly said you know what make an appointment with me so we can discuss mediation. At said appointment she literally word per word said what she had said previously; nothing new. I was billed for every little thing at an extremely expensive price for practically nothing. I truly feel she is in her field for the wrong reasons and as a previous client would not ever recommend her.

EXCELLENT SERVICE!

Jennifer Walters has been an Amazing Advocate and Attorney. I was referred to her by a close friend because I was specific in asking for an Attorney that can get things done.......and she delivered. Not only is Jennifer honest and hard working, but she has taken time away from her personal life to me...et with her clients on Sundays. To my family and I, that was a huge relief to have all our questions answered by someone incredibly well educated and experienced in Law. Since then, her name has always come up when we are asked about a Great Attorney in her field of practice. MT

terrible

I hired because of these reviews. And I'm very disapointed. She is extremly hard to contact and does a very poor job fallowing up on paper work and filing necessary paper work on time. I do not recommend her to anyone for anything!

Jennifer Rules!!

I hired Jennifer to represent me with divorce from my crazy wife, and Jennifer was the most intelligent, professional, and kind of intimidating attorneys I've dealt with, I wouldn't want against me. Still very friendly and helpful, I'd hire her again without hesitation.

Child Custody

I hired Jennifer Walters to represent me at my child custody hearing in September of 2014. I had filed for a child custody modification due to a major change in circumstances. I was initially representing myself (ProPer), until circumstances got worse in my particular case after the first day of co...urt. I turned to Walter & Moshrefi for help. Jennifer Walters was hired to represent me in my case (limited scope). Long story short, Ms. Walters provided me with superior representation! I now have Sole Legal and Physical Custody of my children. My children are safe, happy, healthy, and successful in their education since then. I couldn't thank Ms. Walters enough for all she has done for me and my children. I would absolutely recommend her to represent me again in any future cases. And I would recommend the offices of Walters & Moshrefi to anyone needing legal advice and or representation. Thank You Jennifer!!!

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.
