Jennifer Marie Behme

I was represented by Jennifer Behme in a nasty divorce proceeding in St. Clair County Circuit Court. Ms. Behme is definitely the attorney you want on your side. I hired her because she had more than a decade of handling family law cases. She was well-versed in the law. She was well- prepared ...in Court. She returned my phone calls and responded to my emails, which were many. She seemed to have a good relationship with the judge and opposing counsel seemed to be intimidated by her. She did a great job.

I hired Jennifer in April, 2014, for a hearing in May, 2014. However, she went on maternity leave, and the case was passed to another attorney. Upon return, the case had fallen apart and the other attorney put in a motion to withdraw. She didn't object to the motion, but agreed. Because she was still... my attorney until the motion was done, I clearly stated that I was requesting that a disposition of stay to be put in affect, to prevent my spouse from spending his pension money. She advised she couldn't because his pension money was his, and I had terminated my rights when we became legally separated, although that was not noted in legal separation order. I was requesting pension from the time "DURING THE MARRIAGE and wanted a "disposition of stay" for that portion. Since temporary alimony has run out and the case is still going on, I asked for another request for temporary alimony to be done. She stated that she couldn't, because she is withdrawing from the case, and it is not enough time. before the motion to withdraw hearing.My issue is unwillingto fully represent you. It will help by thoroughly understanding the needs of your client, and the laws that protect those needs.

Jennifer is an excellent divorce attorney. I came to her with a case that was almost 2 years old and she helped me move the case to final within two months. She was pivotal to keeping the case from going to court by reaching an agreement giving both parties what they wanted. Jennifer is concise, clea...r, and efficient. The person who referred her to me described her as a "bulldog" and she definitely is. She was exactly what I needed and well worth every penny spent. I highly recommend Jennifer Behme.
