Divorce case

Ms. Henninger was m attorney through my very difficult divorce matter. I later had toner in her 2 additional times for enforcement matters when my ex did not comply with court orders. Through the almost 2 years of a divorce and then additional court proceedings when it is over, Ms. Henninger was wond...erful. She is compassionate, empathetic, and extremely honest in terms of realistic expectations and goals of your case. I recommend her to anyone needing zealous and competent representation for their divorce and family law cases.

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.
