Janette facilitated my divorce this year, and amid all the uncertainties of Covid she proved to be a “no nonsense “ voice of calm and reason accompanied by the skills and knowledge needed to achieve my goals. In the arena of divorce law it is important to feel that you have someone in your corner who is not looking to take financial advantage of what is already an extremely difficult time for those involved. I highly recommend Janette.

I was very fortunate to have been referred to Jeanette by another very well-respected and prominent attorney. She did an excellent job representing me in court, was well-prepared and cited Supreme Court cases to support our position. She presented our case strongly, clearly, and confidently. When faced with obstinance, lack of cooperation, and procrastination, she is unfazed and quickly responds and implements solutions. Because she promptly gets on top of any problem, she knows how to ease any worry or concern her client may have. I highly recommend Jeanette Tuzinski, and have already referred her to others, and will continue to do so!

I have use Jeanette Tuzinski Of Tuzinski & Zick five times over the years, she has been a professional from Start to Finish. In my opinion she is one of the best. I am so happy with her work, she comes out as a little firecracker, I leave her office saying she one lawyer knows what she is doing. She can understand what I want and need to do. She tells me the good and the bad of the case. She tells me the right and wrong of what I am doing. I am a disable Vet and sometimes I get loopy with all my medication and she can control the situation. I consider her a great person to use and have told all my friends and peers to use her services. I am glad I have used her firm. She is a life saver. I plan to use her and firm for all my attorney needs Thank you

I had a very good experience working with Jeanette. She was responsive to my questions. She was efficient with her time. I felt she advocated for my position accurately and with an assertive style. My divorce was complicated and I believe Jeanette did a great job explaining all the complexities in a patient measured way. I am glad I hired Jeanette to represent me. I was able to achieve components in my agreement I did not think was possible.

I have had the great opportunity to work with Jeanette in several capacities both professional and personal. Nearly 15 years ago I was employed by Tuzinski & Zick, LLC as an Office Assistant for several years. It was a wonderful work environment and they were excellent employers. Throughout the years, I have recommended their services to my friends and colleagues. I have heard nothing but wonderful things regarding their representation as well as the favorable outcomes. Recently, I was faced with a contentious divorce and sought Jeanette’s council. She did an exceptional job my case! From taking a complex trial on short notice, to negotiating a beyond satisfactory resolution with less than ideal opposing council. I was truly grateful for her representation. She was instrumental in making a very difficult situation tolerable and perhaps funny at times. Thank you!

Jeanette is absolutely wonderful. I can not express how happy I am with the results we achieved in my case. I now have full 50/50 physical and legal custody with my son. She is very knowledgeable, responsive and reasonably priced. I have had multiple high priced attorneys through a very difficult custody dispute and was only able to get what was right with Jeanette. She is straight forward and honest, she will not just tell you what you want to hear but will let you know all possible outcomes. I would recommend her to anyone and already have.

I'm a father of 3 and retained Jeannette to represent me in a divorce. Jeannette helped guide me through a very stressful period of my life. She provided excellent legal guidance, was prompt in answering questions and helped get me a very fair arrangement in my divorce. I would recommend her services to any dad out there.
