Strong lawyer for special education cases

The Law Office of Jenny Cochrane stood by our family through a complex special education trial against the school district and helped us achieve a successful outcome, including securing the IEP goals our child truly needed. Jenny was knowledgeable, determined, and exceptionally well prepared, but wha...t impressed us most was how supportive and understanding she remained throughout the process. Every consultation and phone call felt personal and reassuring—more like speaking with a trusted family member than an attorney. We are deeply grateful for her dedication and highly recommend her firm to families facing difficult special education matters.

Excelente apoyo bilingüe para nuestra familia

Nuestra experiencia con la Oficina Legal de Jenny Cochrane fue excelente. Jenny y su equipo son bilingües, lo cual hizo que todo el proceso fuera mucho más claro y cómodo para nuestra familia. Nos ayudaron con un asunto de educación especial, la creación de un fideicomiso para necesidades especiales ...y también nos orientaron sobre posibles terapias y recursos. Su comprensión fue especialmente valiosa porque tiene experiencia personal con un familiar con necesidades especiales. Más adelante volvimos a contratarla para la planificación patrimonial y la preparación de testamentos. Una vez más, recibimos respuestas rápidas, explicaciones claras y una atención muy cuidadosa a cada detalle. Recomendamos sinceramente a Jenny y a su equipo por su conocimiento, sensibilidad y compromiso con las familias.

Outstanding Representation in a Complex Discrimination Case

The Law Office of Jenny Cochrane provided exceptional representation in a highly complex court case involving gender and disability discrimination. Jenny is extremely knowledgeable about both federal and Washington State court procedures, as well as the legal standards and precedent developed by the ...Ninth Circuit and the U.S. Supreme Court. She handled every stage of the case with skill, preparation, and confidence. We were facing one of the largest and most powerful entities, but Jenny was never intimidated. She carefully developed the evidence, presented strong legal arguments, and fought relentlessly to protect our rights. We ultimately won the case and achieved an outcome that exceeded what we had originally hoped for. Jenny is a strong trial lawyer, an experienced advocate, and someone who genuinely cares about her clients. We strongly recommend the Law Office of Jenny Cochrane to anyone facing a serious discrimination, disability-rights, employment, or civil litigation matter.

Thank you! Thoroughly recommend Jenny and the team.

We hired the Law Office of Jenny Cochrane after a large tree fell onto our property and caused severe structural damage. Before the incident, we had repeatedly complained to the HOA about the dangerous condition of the tree, but the board failed to investigate or take meaningful action. The resulting... repair costs exceeded $100,000, and the HOA initially refused to accept responsibility. Jenny carefully reviewed the HOA records, our prior complaints, photographs, repair estimates, inspection reports, and other evidence. She developed a strong legal strategy, held the HOA board accountable for ignoring a known safety risk, and helped us pursue the compensation needed to repair our home. Thanks to Jenny’s persistence, attention to detail, and strong representation, we were able to recover the money for the structural repairs. She was responsive, straightforward, and fully committed to protecting our rights throughout a very stressful dispute. I highly recommend the Law Office of Jenny Cochrane to anyone dealing with HOA negligence, property damage, unsafe trees, structural repairs, or complex HOA litigation in Kirkland, Bellevue, or the greater Eastside Washington area.

  • 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.
