Client Review from Google

Jennifer Leffler is one of the best attorneys I have been represented by personally. She represented me in a protective order hearing in which false allegations were accused against me. I felt very overwhelmed about my case because I felt in the wrong before it had started but she came into court aggressive and prepared. In which she ended up dismissing both cases filed against me. 10/10 law firm.
