She is also a court-certified mediator and provides private and court-appointed mediation services.. Every year since 2018, Jennifer has been nominated by her peers and selected to the Super Lawyers’ Illinois Rising Stars list.

Jennifer represents her clients in the manner best suited to the goals of each individual client. She has experience in all types of cases, from amicable, quick, cost-effective matters to highly litigious cases.

She values her ability to communicate, advocate, and work with her clients to achieve the best possible result during a difficult time. Jennifer has an eye for detail and a straightforward approach, and she strives to meet her client’s expectations.. Jennifer’s strong mediation and negotiation skills come into play both in her litigated matters and in her work with individuals who want to avoid court intervention and reach an agreement amongst themselves through mediation.. Jennifer is a member of the DuPage County Bar Association and Illinois State Bar Association. To give back to her community and help those that cannot afford an attorney, she volunteers in the family law divisions of the DuPage County and Cook County courthouses.
