"Jenn is a wonderful attorney who is driven to do everything she can for her clients."
"I have worked with Jennifer for the better part of the past decade. You will not find anyone more fearless in the courtroom while still having compassion and understanding for her clients. We worked together on murder cases, sex assaults, and other violent crimes. In that time I learned that if I needed a criminal lawyer, Jennifer is the first person I would call."
"As a former prosecutor, I worked across the isle from Jennifer Kilpatrick. I was always impressed by her ability to find creative ways to solve complex issues to achieve real results for her clients."
"Jennifer and I have gone to trial together on a six week complex homicide and an indeterminate sex assault. I witnessed first-hand, Jennifer's innovative approach, unyielding dedication to her clients, and trial expertise. Jury trials are invariably unpredictable, but during those seven weeks, Jennifer was ready for everything the prosecution threw our way. Jennifer works her cases from day one, and weaves together her innovative approach with a level of preparedness most other attorneys only dream of. I would not hesitate to go to trial with her again, and welcome the opportunity to do so."
"I have had the pleasuring of working with Ms. Kilpatrick on a number of complex cases, including a homicide and serious drug investigation. I have consistently been impressed with Ms. Kilpatrick's worth ethic and diligence. She is a creative litigator and a team player. I will continue to look for opportunities to partner with Ms. Kilpatrick on cases, and I feel confident that anyone who hires her to represent them is in good hands."
