Extremely knowledgeable, responsive and dedicated

I hired Jeni on a retainer to understand my options and get her opinion on best next steps. She immediately settled my nerves and gave me the resources that I needed to make the best decision for my family. Jeni came through a recommendation from a good friend and I would absolutely suggest you reach... out, even if it's simply to understand what your rights are. She lead with knowledge and empathy, but also confidence that if I did decide to proceed with a divorce, I knew I had the best lawyer and team at my side.

Caring, knowledgeable and honest attorney

Jeni took the time to listen with care in my very contentious custody case. She is very proficient in family law and understands the complexities of the family court system She is extremely smart, caring and attentive.

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.
