Jennifer Applegate has been practicing family law in Sonoma County since 2008. After spending several years as a partner in a small firm, she now runs a solo practice out of a charming downtown office. Jennifer has a reputation as being a lawyer who's good at settling cases, and someone you don't want to go up against in court. She's committed to reaching a fair and equable settlement with a minimum of litigation, but when it's required, she goes to the mat for her clients! Jennifer understands the most effective way to present facts and arguments in court, and has a good reputation with my judges, commissioners, and colleagues. Most of all, she levels with her clients, telling them what to expect and which issues aren't worth fighting over -- so you get good value for money, and you don't make litigation even more contentious.
Consultations are offered at a reduced rate.

Absolutely incredible!!
Ms Applegate was absolutely incredible! I would HIGHLY recommend her w/ no reservations what-so-ever. I only wish we'd found her sooner! We were dealing w/ a custody/ visitation issue with my fiance's 16 year old daughter. We had already spent a fortune and dealt with several incompetent attornies wh...
"Ms. Applegate consulted with me on a family law matter. She is competent, smart, hard working and reliable. I endorse this lawyer."
"Ms. Applegate is highly competent, to say the least. She is highly intelligent when it comes to understanding marital and other relationship issues. She is able to gain a deep understanding of the situation, which unfortunately, is not common among many family law lawyers, but is absolutely necessary to achieve a proper result. She can break down issues extremely well, and is a strong advocate. Her writing product is also excellent. I strongly endorse this lawyer. She is a rising star in our local family law community. Any client would be well served by utilizing her assistance."
"I endorse this lawyer. Jennifer is extremely smart, well-spoken and talented. She thinks outside the box."
