Jenna has focused her entire legal career on the area of family law. She started off her career as a law clerk and then staff attorney for a family court judge before entering private practice. During her entire career in private practice she has narrowed her cases to exclusively family law cases. The many years of representing clients in this area makes her uniquely aware of emotional nature of family law and how the process can be difficult for clients. Jenna works with clients to devise a plan of action to ease the emotional effects of the process as much as possible while still protecting the client’s interests.
Jenna represents parties in all areas of family law including Divorce, Dissolution, Child Support, Child Custody, Post Decree actions, Adoptions, and Domestic Violence in Kentucky and Ohio.
Jenna is a lifetime Northern Kentucky resident having been born and raised in Ft. Thomas, Kentucky, and now living in Villa Hills, Kentucky, with her husband, three sons, and dog, Skye.
