Jennifer is an exceptional attorney. Her attention to detail, proactive communication and knowledge of the law is unparalleled. She represented me in a premarital agreement. As the lead in the process, she made sure all parties met deadlines and provided exceptional coordination in a complex matter.

Jennifer Waterway guided me through the entire process with compassion and professionalism in this difficult, confusing and complicated time. She helped me tremendously through the entire process and listened attentively to my needs and explained the pros and cons of my case. She was always kept me informed at all times. Jennifer was an excellent advocate during this stressful emotional roller coaster called Divorce. She has great communication skills, strong ability and willingness to listen in difficult times. I also want to recognize her assistant Maribel and office staff for making me feel at ease. Too many people fail to put in the time and effort to fully understand and comprehend what the client need. Jennifer had to clean the mess I was left with by prior representation and finalized my divorce in timely manner. I couldn’t have done without and glad I found her. I highly recommend Jennifer for her work ethic, perseverance, knowledge, responsiveness and professionalism.

I highly recommend hiring Jennifer. I could not have picked a better attorney to represent me in a very difficult divorce with a child involved. Jennifer is a great lawyer and also a great person… I truly feel she fought for the best interests of my son and myself to make our family’s new normal the best it could possibly be. Thanks again Jennifer!

Jennifer Kane Waterway of Waterway Law; rescued me from the malice of untruths used to attack my 35 years of impeccable practice standings within my professional community. From the receptionist that made the initial appointment with Jennifer’s paralegal to the initial FREE consultation with Jennifer; my complex case (way beyond my ability to appreciate) was dissected & clarified of what WE were up against -a strategy (which is proved throughout my court appearances with her at my virtual side) to be an affective plan to clear my name & FAIRLY resolve the issues of the delicate case. Jennifer went out of her way to provide paramount legal assistance. Her work ethic/professionalism & GENUINE CONCERN wouldn’t exploit my naïve experience of but tirelessly guide me, w/lay termed teachings, through the judicial system processes. Jennifer provides a reliable, top shelf affordable legal service. Jennifer proved that she has the experience, knowledge and determination in order to create a WIN.

 
Child Custody

Jennifer is not only an amazing lawyer but also a parent and I was able to connect with her on a personal level. She listened and advised accordingly. I never felt pressured to do anything or take any deal I didn’t want to. My case was insanely difficult and Jennifer took her time to research and review every possible loophole. Although I chose to settle my case without a trial and the outcome didn’t exactly go in my favor, Jennifer was very supportive of my decision and helped with the process every step of the way. Having good lawyer on your side matters. I had very bad experience with my previous lawyer who left a lot of mess for Jennifer to clean up. Jennifer was blunt, honest and made no false promises which made me trust her and comfortable to work with. She stayed on top of my case and was always reachable. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone who is struggling to find a good family lawyer! She’s the best!

Jennifer worked with my husband and I to finalize the adoption of our infant son! Jennifer remained incredibly friendly, compassionate and sensitive throughout the process. Jennifer was not only knowledgeable about adoption law and procedure, but was swift with paperwork, connected us with a reliable notary service and communicated with our adoption agency in a professional manner. She gladly answered all of our questions and prepped us for the final court hearing. Thanks to Jennifer we successfully finalized the adoption of our son within 3.5 short months of his birth! Jennifer is a wonderful combination of professional and compassionate!
