Family lawyer | Jun 07

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have had the pleasure and opportunity to work with Jenny in both the public and private sectors. I often refer my opposing parties to Jenny as I know she will advocate strongly for her clients but is a class act in the process. She is compassionate, professional, friendly, and a very effective litigator."
