She's a go getter that will get you the results you want. Hired Jenni initially for an ugly divorce. She not only got me through the divorce, but she also helped me to secure custody despite the rough situation I was in. Professional, tough, and trustworthy kind of attorney I needed on my side to navigate the complex legal system. Jenni was definitely a blessing to me and my family.

I would recommend anyone looking for an attorney in the Colorado Springs area, or out of state to hire Jennifer. Jennifer handled my divorce in Colorado Springs even though I moved to Florida before the divorce started. Jennifer and her associates did an outstanding job for me. I was about to throw in the towel in the beginning, but she handled my divorce case very professionally and fought for me the whole way. I ended up with a Very equitable settlement in the end and am very pleased. Guys assume they don’t have a chance in a divorce, but she proved me wrong. Would highly recommend if you need a lawyer. Thank you Jennifer.

I highly recommend Jenni at Black & Graham. She was extremely detailed and very supportive throughout the process of my divorce. Jenni worked with the opposing attorney very tactfully and I am very pleased with the outcome. I could not have gotten the results on my own even though I was adviced by others to do it myself. Thanks to Jenni, I am able to move on with confidence that our settlement was fair and complete.

Jennifer Helland is an excellent lawyer and resource. I have had the pleasure of working with her on two separate occasions and have been totally satisfied each time. She is extremely knowledgeable and is quick to respond with any issues or concerns. She helped me feel comfortable about court dates and hearings and made sure all my questions were answered during every step of the process. I would, and have, recommended her to my friends and family.

I would recommend anyone looking for an attorney in the Colorado Springs area, that you find Mrs. Helland. I am in the military and she was very helpful throughout the three years she worked on my case. My case was very long, I deployed during the case. If I had questions, she was always answering them within a timely manner. If you are military, Jennifer Helland is a lawyer that I would search for to help you out with what ever your case may be. She is very upfront about what is going on with your case.

Wonderful person, wonderful attorney! I have been fighting a child custody battle that has become relatively notorious within Colorado, for over 2 years, and Jenni has supported me every step of the way. Being military, she has been more than generous regarding my time and my money. I always get calls and emails back promptly. I have worked with multiple lawyers and paralegals in the law group and have received excellent representation from every single one. I would HIGHLY recommend letting Jenni help you with your case and assure that you will have just as great of an experience as I have.
