Child Custody

My case was a custody only dispute. My ex tried to fight hard with lies about income, lies about my ability to care for my child, lies about my mental health, etc. Jennifer was able to dispute all of his lies and she got me majority physical custody, as well as a final custody order that protected me from my ex's abuse and harassment. Jennifer is excellent at communication, responsiveness, and reading the room. She has extensive experience in Wayne County Circuit Court and other other metro Detroit courtrooms. She will not let you down. 10/10 recommend.

The day I made the difficult decision to divorce my husband, I didn't even know where to begin looking for an attorney, or what to expect about the process. I feel lucky that I found Jennifer right away. She dove right in and got things going, and kept me updated on every step of the process. Her guidance, professionalism and expertise truly helped make everything way smoother than I thought it would be. Without even knowing me, Jennifer seemed to understand where I was coming from, and everything went down in a way that made me feel safe and comfortable. That part might be hard to understand without more detail, but trust me that Jennifer got it, and this whole situation was better for me because of her intuition. I would hire her again in a minute, and recommend her to anyone who needs an attorney.

My child custody battle was a very difficult one. My ex-husband tried continuously to take me through court hearings simply to outspend me. He lied about work, education, income, and even his home situation. Each curve ball he tried to throw at me, Jennifer was always one step ahead; constantly exploiting his lies. We won every court hearing and not because it was simple but because she is extremely knowledgeable, resourceful, and fights for you just as hard as she would fight for her own.

Jennifer is a highly competent and skilled lawyer. She simultaneously represented me on two different cases. She was always organized, direct, and stayed two steps ahead of everyone. She truly cared about my family and it showed through the work she did.{para}Jennifer is the type of lawyer that all lawyers should aspire to be like. She was upfront and honest with me every step of the way and won both of my cases. Her fees are incredibly low for the service she provides. {para}I strongly recommend her!!!

Divorce is never easy, Jennifer took care of everything and made it easier. She was honest, reliable and was willing to fight for what was right. Financially she was more than reasonable with her pricing, and allowed for payments. I've recommended her to many friends and they've all been satisfied with her services.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
