Jennifer Erlinger at Erlinger Family Law

Jennifer helped me every way possible with my divorce, She did the most amazing job with walking me through the process and it all turned out just the way we had hoped. Trust Jen, she won't do you wrong.

Update to this review: After Ms. Erlinger refusing to file my relocation request and continuously telling me that the judge won’t approve it, it has been GRANTED! 🙌🏻 I had Ms. Erlinger as my attorney and for final trial she did well considering the fact that I hired her only 3 weeks before. However, when she put together the final order for the judge to sign there were mistakes and issues within the order that she refused to fix or change. Dealing with a high conflict parent I knew this order was going to prompt a contempt hearing which it did but once final trial was over Ms. Erlinger totally went ghost and would not respond to phone calls or emails. The other parent filed an appeal which I had to hire an appellate attorney for. Letting him know the issues I was since having with Ms. Erlinger he reached out to her himself to talk to her about covering the litigation part since he only does appeals. Through the appeal process she was great and very aggressive even threatening opposing counsels attorney that she will go after him personally for fees since everything he was doing was just to have a negative financial impact on me. She was a totally different person. After asking her several times to file a motion for contempt she finally did but only after I cc’d my appellate attorney in on the email. At the contempt hearing half of the issues weren’t even brought up. The judge ordered a few things in the final order to be changed, things that I originally said would be an issue but 4 months later she still didn’t put together or submit to the judge the changes. So that was a complete waste of time and money. Due to this prolonged litigation I occurred so much debt, ruined credit and lost my job. My house was ordered to be sold and continuing to reside in Jacksonville was no longer financially possible or in the best interest of my child due to many other factors as well. For 2 months Ms. Erlinger promised to file a motion for relocation but never did and never had any intention to. She has purposely put me in a very bad situation where I am now scrambling with little time to get back in front of the judge for a relocation hearing. After asking several times to file as this is causing a huge delay and her either making excuses or just not responding I finally asked her to withdrawal from my case so that I can file the motion on my own. She literally refused to withdrawal! She has also refused to provide me with a sworn affidavit of the funds that I already paid to her so that I could present that to the judge when asking for the other party to reimburse my attorney fees. I am shocked at such unprofessional, spiteful and vindictive behavior. I filed the motion myself and that’s when she finally filed her motion to withdrawal. Beware. If you have a quick and easy case that involves minimal effort I’d recommend her because she does know her stuff. My case was extremely frustrating and complicated with the other parent having an attorney that was just brutal and relentless. But seriously if only all attorneys could be like that guy especially the ones getting paid. You’ll see her in many Facebook groups commenting on posts from people looking for an attorney or her family members recommending her on those posts and then you will also see many people telling you to steer clear of her due to their experiences with her as well.

Love my Jennifer. She is straight to the point no chaser and no hidden fees. Didn’t feel like she was a waste of time and only seeking money. She actually looked out for me a few times. I don’t regret hiring her and would recommend her to anyone going through a divorce. Our first initial conversation was pleasant and she made sure I understood the process. It was like talking to a friend. Her assistant Michelle is always pleasant and seemed so sweet and friendly. Her price was lower than my significant other attorneys price so that was a plus. Glad she represents me. No complaints

Jennifer is absolutely amazing! She’s doing an outstanding job at helping me through one of the most difficult times in my life. She’s a go getter, a "bulldog" in the court room and can get the results you’re looking for! I can’t thank her enough, will recommend her to everyone and will continue to use her if I need her 🙂 P.S. Her Asst., Michelle is awesome too!

Words can’t explain the gratitude have for Jennifer. She’s goes above and beyond for all her clients. She treats my daughter and I like family. She works hard while making the process as painless as possible. I recommend her to anyone I possible can, and am beyond blessed to have found her as an attorney. You can tell that she genuinely loves her job, and her clients.

Just had a consult with Jennifer today in regards to custody & time sharing and I was truly impressed!! She broke down the situation and scenarios I had very well and explained the pros and cons of each. She literally took her time and I didn’t feel rushed. She made me feel that my situation mattered and she truly understood it but at the same time, she was brutally honest and I appreciated that so much. From one mother to another, I have all good things to say about her and would recommend her to anyone!

Jennifer is an amazing family law attorney. Very easy to work with, responds quickly and so much more. She made my case go about as smooth as you can ask. She stands up for what’s right and has a drive to excel I’d recommend her to anyone.
