Great service !

I had a very stressful experience dealing with my HOA, which had become extremely aggressive with fines and enforcement over issues like window blinds, parking, and even water damage that was not my fault. Hiring the Law Office of Jenny Cochrane was the best decision I made. Jenny and her team qui...ckly understood the situation and took a strategic, no-nonsense approach. They prepared strong documentation, sent well-crafted demand letters, and guided me step-by-step on how to push back against unfair HOA actions. Their knowledge of HOA law and attention to detail really stood out. What impressed me most was their responsiveness and transparency. They were always available to answer questions, kept me informed throughout, and never made the process feel overwhelming. They also helped me successfully challenge insurance claim issues and ultimately resolve the fines. Thanks to their support, I was able to stand up to a very difficult HOA board and come out in a much better position. I highly recommend the Law Office of Jenny Cochrane to anyone dealing with HOA disputes—they are professional, effective, and truly on your side.

Attorney you want in your corner to represent your best interests.

I had a very good experience working with the Law Office of Jenny Cochrane on a civil matter and some estate planning questions. Jenny took the time to explain things clearly and helped us understand options around power of attorney and other important documents. Legal issues can feel overwhelming, b...ut she was patient, practical, and easy to communicate with throughout the process. What stood out most was her ability to handle the civil issue efficiently while also guiding us through estate planning matters in a straightforward way. Her advice was thoughtful and helped us make decisions that protected our family’s interests. I would definitely recommend the Law Office of Jenny Cochrane to anyone looking for help with civil litigation, estate planning, or power of attorney documents.

Highly Recommend Jenny Cochrane for HOA Disputes

Jenny Cochrane was extremely helpful in resolving several issues we had with our HOA, including water damage problems and unfair HOA fines from the board. She quickly understood the situation and guided us through the process in a way that saved us a lot of time, stress, and unnecessary expenses. Wha...t stood out the most was her clear communication and practical advice — she explained our options and helped us address multiple HOA-related concerns in a short period of time. Jenny is patient, very affordable compared to many attorneys, and genuinely focused on helping homeowners deal with HOA boards effectively. If you are facing HOA disputes, water damage responsibility issues, or HOA fine enforcement problems, I highly recommend Jenny Cochrane.

This attorney should never be hired for family law matters.

I retained this attorney to complete a limited scope matter: finalizing paperwork related to a CR2A that had already been completed. I paid over $10,000 for this work, and was billed nearly $20k. From the beginning, communication was inconsistent. Scheduled calls were frequently postponed or cancel...ed, and billing was not provided in a timely or transparent manner. Charges continued to appear long after substantive work on my case had ended, and invoices trickled in over the course of more than a year. I repeatedly requested a final bill, but billing continued even when no additional work was being performed. When I ultimately disputed additional charges totaling several thousand dollars and declined to pay them, her office pushed back but then communication from the attorney ceased entirely. I was also told the attorney was “preparing for trial,” despite the fact that the matter was governed by an existing CR2A and was never procedurally headed toward trial. Additionally, I was informed that opposing counsel was a former college roommate of this attorney. While I was told this did not constitute a conflict of interest, it is something that I believe was a conflict of interest and the case dragged on unnecessarily. Her paralegal even went to work for the other attorney while she was still on my case. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this attorney. I paid a substantial amount of money and did not receive clear value, consistent communication, or reliable billing practices.

Awesome service start to finish

Jenny helped me out with an very stressful case and I found her knowledge base, experience, and empathetic approach to be extremely helpful. She is definitely a big reason I was able to get through the case both legally and personally. Really appreciated her service, and would highly reccommend her... to anyone I know.
