Exceptional Skill and Service
Deanna Ballou Jensen is an exceptional lawyer. With her leadership and skills we were able to overcome all odds in a custody dispute, and her advice regarding other family issues was extremely helpful. She is professional, responsive and on target. We have always felt that she had our best interests ...
"I endorse this lawyer. We worked on a case together with very high conflict issues where Ms. Jensen represented the children. Her investigation was extremely detailed, and she worked very hard to make sure the children were protected and advocated for their best interests. In the end, she helped shorten the litigation time to a fraction of what it could have been. She is very professional and her years of experience are a great asset."
"I had the pleasure of working with Deanna on a difficult and complex matter. Deanna demonstrated not only a thorough knowledge of the law (which she has in spades), but also a uniquely even-tempered and rational disposition which brought about a successful resolution to a very difficult situation. Deanna is a passionate advocate for her clients, while at the same time providing compassion, understanding and piece of mind to those individuals who seek her counsel. Deanna also has a knack for finding creative solutions to difficult issues. She is able to "think outside the box." This is not only a tremendous asset to an attorney practicing family law, but also one that is regarded highly by judges and opposing counsel alike. I strongly endorse this attorney."
"Deanna Jensen has been my law partner for nearly six years now. In that time I have seen both the genuine caring with which she relates to her clients and the deft legal skills with which she navigates, settles and tries cases. She works very hard to settle cases. However, when she goes to a hearing she is always very prepared and ready to fight hard for the client."
