Mr. Jenkins and the entire staff were amazing to work with. They answered questions, calmed my concerns and made an overall stressful process much easier. I highly recommend this lawyer and his team to anyone needing guidance to understand their legal rights.

That is the only way to describe the level of support I received in my interactions with Paul Jenkins and the team at the GNC law firm. Paul is a gifted attorney who was an excellent guide through the uncharted waters of separation and divorce. At every step of the way, from my initial consultation, numerous conferences, court appearances, mediation, etc., Paul directed me and ensured that I understood what was happening and that I was prepared. His attention to detail, communication, organization, and most importantly his availability and responsiveness provided me with a sense of assurance that my case and my issues were important to him. I was always confident that he was working to get me the best result possible. Perhaps one of Paul’s best talents is his ability to support his client while providing an honest and realistic assessment of the situation. While some things may not seem to be going your way, you can trust it isn’t because of a lack of effort from your attorney when you are working with Paul. If you are considering a separation, Paul should be the first person you reach out to. I did, and I am lucky to have done so.

Helped me take care of not only my will but also a pre-nuptial. Very professional and showed extended knowledge and care with the issues involved with a will and pre-nuptial. Paid special attention to the small details involved with my age group of 65 and older. Thank You

Paul went above and beyond. He was thorough respectful and considerate. Family Court is never something that anyone ever wants to go through but having a good lawyer helps tremendously.

Paul Jenkins and his team helped me during my divorce. He was very patient and listened to my concerns. His team and him made a legal agreement that was detailed and catered to my situation. The divorce was smoother than expected. I highly recommend Paul to anyone who finds themselves in a similar circumstance. Thanks again for great service, kindness, and understanding.

I contacted Paul Jenkins after I was referred to him from a previous satisfied client of his. Upon our consultation, he clearly laid out how the separation and divorce process goes with specific details to my case. Every time we spoke/met I felt confident in his abilities and did not feel rushed or pressured to make a decision. I greatly appreciate his guidance and kindness during this emotional and difficult time. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone I know seeking a divorce lawyer.

Paul Jenkins and his team helped me during the difficult process of my recent separation. He, patiently, listened to my concerns and, with his team, put together a set of documents that made the agreement with my spouse as smooth as possible. I highly recommend Paul to anyone who finds themselves in a similar, unfortunate, circumstance.
