Very professional and trustworthy

Jennifer quickly became familiar with the nuances of my case. I was impressed with her ability to remember particular details, names, and terms specific to my former employer. Throughout the entire process she demonstrated her commitment to obtaining a positive outcome and kept me informed about wh...at I could realistically expect. I had 100% trust in her ability to represent me and would recommend her to anyone who needs help with an employment matter.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
