Professionals

Over the course of her work, Jenny has advised clients on a variety of property-related issues including real estate transactions, estate planning, real estate litigation, and probate. Regardless of the context, Jenny enjoys helping clients protect their interests in property.

Jenny began her legal career as a litigator.  Her experience ranges from representing individuals and small businesses in straightforward disputes to representing Fortune 500 companies in complex cases.  For her litigation clients, Jenny recognizes that litigation is rarely a client’s first choice. While she relies on litigations skills developed in arbitrations and trials to fight for her clients, she also recognizes the importance of assisting clients in finding practical and workable solutions when possible.

In representing clients in real estate disputes, Jenny brings a specialized understanding of matters that affect ownership, title and usage of property. In recent years, Jenny has handled numerous cases touching on the enforceability of mortgages, the relative priority of liens against real estate, the validity of real estate conveyances, adverse possession, post-foreclosure issues, condominium lien and mortgage issues, title insurance coverage, and other related issues.

Along the litigation path, Jenny saw the importance of helping clients avoid issues relating to property in terms of estate planning.  While estate planning is so much more than navigating issues with property, it was that connection to property that attracted her attention.  Jenny enjoys spending time with her estate planning clients and learning about their unique family situations, specific assets, individual desires, and concerns.  By spending time getting to know her clients, she creates estate plans that suit the needs of each client.

In both the litigation and estate planning context, one of the things Jenny enjoys the most is learning about clients and their businesses.  Jenny works in partnership with her clients to provide thoughtful strategies and legal advice that is tailored to meet the goals and expectations of each individual client.

Jenny and her husband, Shawn, have three children. Outside of work, Jenny enjoys spending time with her family, taking and teaching yoga, reading, and traveling.
