Hi! I'm Jenn.
Born in Orlando, Florida, I grew up your typical “Navy Brat” (I come from a long line of Navy and Marine veterans). I am a member of the State Bar of Georgia and the Florida State Bar. I am also a registered neutral in the State of Georgia, where I perform both general civil and domestic relations mediations. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me with any legal questions you have. The legal system can intimidate and overwhelm anyone – we’re here to help find the answers and solutions you need!

Personal Injury Law
When you have been hurt by someone else’s carelessness, you deserve full compensation for all of your losses, including property damage, lost wages, pain and suffering, and any permanent scarring or disfiguration.
